Forward Looking Statements

The information presented contains “forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and

“forward-looking information” under similar Canadian legislation, concerning the business, operations and financial performance and condition of the Company.

Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the estimation of mineral reserves and mineral

resources; the realization of mineral reserve estimates; the timing and amount of estimated future production; costs of production; metal prices and demand for

materials; capital expenditures; success of exploration and development activities; permitting time lines and permitting, mining or processing issues; government

regulation of mining operations; environmental risks; and title disputes or claims. Generally, forward-looking statements and forward-looking information can be

identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “plans,” “expects” or “does not expect,” “is expected,” “budget,” “scheduled,” “estimates,” “forecasts,”

“intends,” “anticipates” or “does not anticipate,” or “believes,”, “projects” or variations of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results

“may,” “could,” “would,” “might” or “will be taken,” “occur” or “be achieved.” Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are based on the opinions

and estimates of management as of the date such statements are made, and they are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may

cause the actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-

looking statements or forward-looking information, including, but not limited to, unexpected events during operations; variations in ore grade; risks inherent in the

mining industry; delay or failure to receive board approvals; timing and availability of external financing on acceptable terms; risks relating to international operations;

actual results of exploration activities; conclusions of economic valuations; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; and fluctuating metal prices

and currency exchange rates. Although management of the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially

from those contained in forward-looking statements or forward-looking information, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or

intended. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in

such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and forward-looking information. The Company does not

undertake to update any forward-looking statements or forward-looking information that are incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable

securities laws.

Investors are advised that National Instrument 43-101 of the Canadian Securities Administrators requires that each category of mineral reserves and mineral resources

be reported separately. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated or Inferred Resources

The information presented uses the terms “measured,” “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources. United States investors are advised that while such terms are

recognized and required by Canadian regulations, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission does not recognize these terms. “Inferred mineral

resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an

inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of

feasibility or other economic studies. United States investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be

converted into mineral reserves. United States investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists, or is economically

or legally mineable.

In 2013 VW announced plans to use new high-strength steel instead of aluminum to make its cars lighter and also to improve fuel efficiency to comply with the strict emissions regulations.

In 2013 Ford announced that the F-150 pickup will soon be 250 to 750 pounds lighter with HSLA steels.

Ram’s 2013 3500 pickup 7,000 pounds additional towing capacity than previous version, by using high-strength steel

Despite the recent rapid growth in the automotive sector with new HSLA steels, Vanadium has a long history with automobiles

1906 Henry Ford first introduced vanadium into the his Model T for the purpose of making it lighter and stronger

Growth Example: China

13

The output of hot rolled ribbed steels (rebar) accounts for 1/4 of steel production in China.

Vanadium alloyed high-strength rebars have significantly higher resistance to seismic events

Vanadium enhances the engineering quality which reduces the amount of steel used by 10%-20% (and as an added benefit, results in energy saving as well as emissions cutting)

The Chinese government implemented Code for Design and Concrete Structures in 2010 and an Update on the Code in 2011.

This policy seeks to gradually eliminate the use of low strength bars by 2015 and implement an increase in Vanadium content in steel rebar.

(Global Steel 2013, Ernest&Younge)

Vanadium Batteries?

15

Vanadium Redox Batteries are a Potential New Growth Prospect

Renewable energy sources (like wind and solar) generate energy intermittently

This creates a mismatch between supply and demand

VRBs allow energy generated at off-peak times to be time shifted to when it is needed most

Governments like Germany, the USA, China and Japan are now making the development of renewable energy resources mandatory

California requires one third of its power to be generated by renewable energy by 2020

Germany is targeting 80% of energy will come from renewables by 2050.

Potential Chrome/PGM Discovery

40

Chromite and PGMs are often associated in ultra-mafic rocks like the ones discovered near the Maracas Menchen Mine

This discovery potentially resembles deposits like those in the Bushveld region of South Africa which produces a significant amount of the world’s chrome, PGMs and vanadium

Potential new discovery of chrome and PGMs located North of current mine area

Chromite layers trace 3km strike with at least two zones of chromite layers 20 to 25 metres wide at surface with fine-grained sulphides that potentially contain platinum

Exploration program underway, initial results pending

Growth Example: Aircraft

47

Aircraft usages presently accounts for approx. 7% of vanadium market and is growing rapidly

Demand projected to double by 2016

Aircraft manufacturers using increasing amounts of titanium-vanadium alloy

Boeing's new 787 Dreamliner and the Airbus 380 each contain more than 100 tonnes of vanadium alloys, more than double that in a Boeing 747
