Currie Rose Resources Inc. announced that the Company has commenced core drilling at its 100%-owned North Queensland Vanadium Project (NQVP) located about 500 km west of Townsville, Australia, in the Julia Creek-Richmond critical mineral zone. The program is designed to provide large diameter core (100mm) from within the defined Cambridge vanadium deposit that hosts the NI 43-101 compliant Indicated Resource of 61.33 Mt @ 0.34% V2O5 and Inferred Resource of 144.87 Mt @ 0.33% V2O5. A ten (10) drill hole, multi-use program is planned to provide sufficient sample for: Ore zone metallurgical testwork; Overburden and footwall studies; Additional multielement data; Basic geotechnical data for mining studies; Comprehensive stratigraphic data from compressive detailed geological logging and downhole geophysical gamma and density logging; andDetailed mineralogy studies.

In addition, one or two holes will be selected and conditioned for water monitoring purposes. The Cambridge deposit sits within the Toolebuc Formation, a flat lying sequence that consists of black carbonaceous and bituminous shale, minor siltstone with limestone lenses and coquinites with previous drilling indicating that V2O5 mineralisation sits from surface to 30m vertical depth. Drilling will target the full depth of mineralisation and is "infill" drilling, bringing drill spacing to 500m centres for most of the previously defined deposit.

The completion of this work and the various studies will culminate in an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). Currie Rose's NQVP covers approximately 1,250 km2 in northwest Queensland and hosts NI 43-101 compliant Indicated Cambridge Resource of 61.33 Mt @ 0.34% V2O5 and Inferred Resource of 144.87 Mt @ 0.33% V2O5, open for expansion.
