Vior Inc. announced the start of its Phase II drill program at its district- scale Belleterre gold project ("Belleterre" or "Project") in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec. The recently completed 3D structural model, designed by 3DGeo Solution Inc. from the compilation of historical data of the former Belleterre gold mine, has been used to help generate this campaign's high priority drill targets located within the potential extensions of the past high-grade mineralization at Belleterre. The Phase II drill program will consist of eight (8) high-priority drill targets totalling over 4,000 meters ("m") and will be focused on the former Belleterre mine concessions.

Various extensions of past producing gold bearing structures are being targeted and are detailed below: Four (4) holes will test the southwest extension of the 12W vein. This structure is interpreted to be the extension of the main historical high-grade mineralized horizon of the past producing Belleterre mine, where the majority of gold production occurred. Vein 12W is also parallel to the regional Gainsmoor deformation shear zone, which is interpreted as a key structural control to mineralization for the greater Belleterre district.

Three (3) holes will test the Mill Creek shear zone, which parallels the Gainsmoor deformation zone and hosts multiple historic high-grade veins accessed via two of the four shafts of the former Belleterre gold mine. Two of the three holes will test the northeast extension of the structure and will be located within 250 m of shaft 4 and spaced 400 m from each other along the structure where intrusives and associated gold mineralization have historically been recognised. The third hole, a greater than 300m step out from shaft 2, will test the southwest extension of the mineralized structure.

One (1) final hole will test a 400 m step out to the southwest extension of veins 15 and 26, where both zones have been historically underexplored.
