Regulus Resources is a Canadian exploration company formed in December 2010 under the directorship of the former management of Antares Minerals: John E. Black, Dr. Kevin B. Heather and Mark Wayne. Regulus was created through the spin-out of the Rio Grande Cu-Au project in Argentina at the conclusion of the sale of Antares to First Quantum Minerals for approximately C$650 million, primarily for the giant Haquira Cu-Mo-Au deposit in Peru.

Regulus’ focus is on the AntaKori project in Northern Peru where it drilled continuously throughout 2018. The Phase I drilling program was completed by October 2018 and was utilized to calculate the updated Resource Estimate reported on March 1, 2019.  Upon conclusion of the Phase I drilling program, the Company entered directly into the Phase II drilling program. 

Global Atomic provides a profitable and unique combination of high-grade uranium development and cash flowing zinc concentrate production.

The Company aims to start uranium production at the Tier 1 Dasa deposit, in the Republic of Niger by the end of 2024. In addition, Global Atomic has a 49% stake in the BST steel dust recycling operation in Turkey that produces zinc concentrate and provides financial leverage to minimise equity dilution.

Global Atomic owns 90% of the Dasa project, a graben-hosted sandstone first discovered by Company geologists in 2010. Dasa is the largest highest-grade uranium deposit discovered in Africa since the 1970s.

ATEX Resources Inc. is a Latin America-focused exploration company managed by a team of dedicated professionals with a history of discovering major mineral deposits in South America including the Volcan gold deposit, the Cerro Maricunga gold deposit, the Pascua gold deposit, the Cortadera copper deposit, El Morro copper-gold deposit, Taltal iron deposit, as well as others.

ATEX’s flagship property is the Valeriano copper-gold project where the Company recently reported initial mineral resources for the near-surface oxide gold deposit as well as for the large copper-gold porphyry which underlies the oxide gold deposit. While ATEX’s immediate focus is on expanding the current oxide gold resource with the goal of commencing economic studies in the near future, the Company is committed to realizing the full value of the Valeriano copper-gold porphyry. Elsewhere in northern Chile, ATEX has initiated a low-cost generative exploration program exploring for high sulphidation precious metals deposits and has staked a number of properties for review.

Led by a proven and experienced management team with an exceptional track record of uranium success from development to production, Deep Yellow is advancing a dual-pillar growth strategy to establish a multi-mine, 5-10Mlb per annum, low-cost, tier-one uranium producer.

Largo is a Canadian-based company that has historically been solely committed to the production and supply of high-quality vanadium products. The Company believes that the development and sale of vanadium-based utility-scale electrical energy storage systems to support the planet's ongoing transition to renewable energy presents both an attractive economic opportunity for the use of the Company's vanadium products and an opportunity to enhance the Company's sustainability. The Company is confident that using its VPURE™ and VPURE+™ products, which are sourced from one of the world's highest-grade vanadium deposits at the Company's Maracás Menchen Mine in Brazil, in its VCHARGE vanadium redox flow battery technology results in a competitive and practical long-duration energy storage product. Consequently, the Company is undergoing a strategic transformation through the creation of energy storage business operations to be vertically integrated with its highly efficient vanadium production mining operations, to create a unique competitive advantage in the rapidly growing long-duration energy storage market.
