Vanguard Mining Expands Uranium Portfolio with Strategic Paraguay Land Acquisition

Vanguard Mining Corp. has entered into a letter of intent to acquire four uranium concessions covering approximately 90,000 hectares in southeastern Paraguay's Parana Basin. The acquisition includes three San Jose and one Yuty Uno concessions, strategically located adjacent to Uranium Energy Corp.'s established Yuty deposit, which currently hosts 8.96 million pounds of uranium oxide.

The transaction involves Vanguard acquiring an 85% interest in Paraguay Uranium S.A. by paying $20,000 upon signing and issuing 8 million common shares to current shareholders. An additional $20,000 will be paid upon receiving a prospecting permit, which will enable further surface exploration and drilling.

Preliminary exploration data indicates promising uranium potential. Historical drilling on the Uno Concession has returned uranium assay results ranging from 0.05% to 0.10% U₃O₈, with geophysical surveys suggesting the property is geologically aligned with UEC's Transandes block. The San Jose Concession, covering approximately 62,210 hectares, has already identified significant uranium anomalies through radiometric surveys.

This strategic acquisition represents a significant step in Vanguard's uranium exploration strategy. By positioning itself in a region with proven uranium resources and leveraging historical exploration data, the company aims to unlock potential value through modern exploration techniques.

The move comes at a time when Paraguay is emerging as an attractive mining jurisdiction, offering political stability, investor-friendly regulations, and significant untapped mineral potential. For Vanguard, this acquisition could provide a valuable foothold in a promising uranium exploration region.
