VANCOUVER, March 3, 2020 /CNW/ - Victory Metals Inc. ("TSX-V: VMX") ("Victory" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from the second set of holes completed during the 53 hole Phase II drilling program at its Iron Point vanadium project, Nevada. Today's release includes eleven holes (nine reverse circulation and two PQ diamond drill holes) that targeted the northern portion of the Iron Point vanadium zone and were drilled as both vertical and angle holes. These holes were recommended by Mine Development Associates (Sparks, NV) to better define the outer limits of mineralization and in-fill several gaps in last year's Phase I drill pattern where lateral correlation of mineralized zones remained unclear.
The collar locations of the eleven holes released today are shown in Figure 1. Four of these holes are shown in two drill sections oriented in a northwest and northeast direction (Figures 2-3, Sections J-J' and K-K') crossing the northern half of the historical vanadium mineralized zone. Similar to the results achieved during the Phase I program last year, all of these holes demonstrate good lateral continuity and confirm the near surface, flat-lying nature of vanadium mineralization at the deposit scale.
Highlights
Paul Matysek, Executive Chairman of Victory, stated, "Phase II drilling in the northern portion of the historic vanadium zone has demonstrated excellent continuity of vanadium and an even better understanding of the distribution of the vanadium mineralization. It is clear from the drilling along cross sections J-J' and K-K' that there is favorable potential for a shallow open pit with uniform grades and low strip. However, additional drilling southwest and northeast of the Phase I and II drill patterns is clearly necessary in order to fully delimit the lateral extent of vanadium mineralization."
Drill Results
Assay results released today are reported in % V2O5, and intercept lengths within mineralized horizons have been reduced to true thickness. Intercept lengths are reported as an Overall Length, which includes all contiguous assay intervals within the low-grade vanadium blanket zone (at a 0.09% V2O5 minimum grade), while higher grade individual zone intercepts reported as aggregate lengths are comprised of samples grading 0.20% V2O5 and greater.

QA/QC and Qualified Person
The Victory drilling program was directly supervised in the field by the QP and other site geologists working for Victory. All RC samples were split at the drill site using a Gilson bar splitter and Jones riffle splitter, with two samples per 5-foot (1.52m) sample interval collected and placed into heavy plastic bags together with sequentially numbered sample tags. A 2kg sample was collected for assay, while a 4kg reference sample was kept on-site. All core sample intervals were marked by Victory personnel in the field, while the intact core was shipped directly to American Assay Lab in Reno, NV, where it was cut and sampled by trained core technicians under controlled conditions.
Three different vanadium standards (71 ppm V, 320 ppm V, and 5172 ppm V) and coarse blank samples were purchased from Minerals Exploration and Environmental Geochemistry (MEG) Inc. of Reno, NV. Victory site geologists inserted field blank, standard, and duplicate samples into the drill sample stream per NI 43-101 guidelines, maintaining a 1-in-20 insertion rate for each of the field blank, standard, and duplicate samples such that every 7th sample is a control sample. Field duplicate samples were split from the 4kg reference samples using a Jones riffle splitter.
Drill samples were transported by Victory personnel to locked storage sheds rented by Victory and located in Golconda, NV, about 14km west of the project area. Samples were picked up in Golconda by American Assay Laboratories utilizing its own truck and driver and transported directly to American Assay's facility in Reno, NV. At American Assay Laboratories, the RC and core samples were crushed to 70% passing 2mm, and then a 0.3km split was ground to 85% passing 75 micron. A 0.5gm split was digested in a 5 acid process (ICP-5A035 method uses HNO3, HF, HClO4, HCl, H3BO3) and analyzed via ICP-OES. The detection limit for vanadium is 1ppm, the upper limit is 10,000ppm, and sample results are reported in PPM V. As a separate QAQC check, American Assay inserted laboratory standards, blanks, and duplicates into the sample stream. American Assay Laboratories is accredited by the International Accreditation Service, which conforms with requirements of ISO/IEC 17025:2005.
Victory is currently using SGS Canada Inc. to perform umpire assays on 1-in-40 drill pulps obtained from American Assay Laboratories and submitted to SGS Canada in Lakefield, ON. Victory is re-numbering the pulp samples and inserting the same field standard and blanks into the sample stream in order to better compare results between the two labs.
The scientific and technical information in this news release has been reviewed and approved by Calvin R. Herron, P.Geo., who is a Qualified Person as defined by National Instrument 43-101.
