CURRIE ROSE TO RESUME TRADING FOLLOWING ANNOUNCEMENT OF VANADIUM PROJECT ACQUISITIONS FROM CHALICE AND LIONTOWN
Currie Rose Resources Inc. has filed the requisite documents with the exchange and expects to resume trading effective Wednesday, Nov. 24, 2021.
Currie has been in a trading halt since 27th October 2021 when it advised the market that the Company would acquire 100% of two Vanadium (Battery Metal) Projects (the "Project") located in Central North Queensland, Australia.
Project Details
The North Queensland Vanadium Project ("NQVP") is the merger of the Toolebuc and Flinders River Vanadium Projects and is situated approximately 400km west of the port of Townsville (Figure1).
NQVP covers an area of approximately 124,000Ha and is close to rail, road, and power infrastructure.
Third party developments in the area have identified the region as a potential Vanadium Hub.
Preliminary independent metallurgical studies by Liontown, have confirmed that the historic Cambridge Resource is shallow, oxidised, soft, friable and free digging. The ore is considered suitable for pre-concentration with potential pathways to economic processing.
Wide spaced geological and geophysical data is also at hand and priority targets for first pass exploration have also been identified. See Company's news release dated 27 October 2021 for further project and transaction details.
Why Vanadium
Vanadium has been identified by the Canadian, United States and Australian Governments as a critical mineral for both alloy steel production and large low carbon power applications - Vanadium Redox Flow Batteries (VRB) for large scale modular energy storage.
Demand for Vanadium is expected to increase over the next few years especially in the battery area and, also within the steel industry due to anticipated significant global infrastructure developments planned because of the global pandemic. Company management is of the view that the current significant Vanadium shortages due to increasing global steel demand could be further exacerbated with expected commercialisation and supply of VRB.
The North Queensland Vanadium Project ("NQVP") has large scale potential in a mining friendly, 1st world jurisdiction and is well poised to be a strong contributor to the world market. The Project is well advanced in terms of drilling and preliminary metallurgical testing.
VRB development is advancing at pace. Compared to other commercial scale renewable battery solutions the VRB offers:
- Low carbon footprint of both the production and battery life.
- Significantly faster charging than peers.Significantly higher charging capacity.
- Large, scalable energy storage for electrical grids and microgrids.
- Rapid release of large quantities of energy.Increased safety - non-flammable.
- Reduced cost versus lithium-based energy Storage and batteries
- Reusable Vanadium electrolyte are recyclable, resulting in longer life span compared to other batteries
