Vertical Exploration Inc. Receives Ecocert Approval for its Global Wollastonite to Be Used for Organic Agricultural Production in Canada Vertical Exploration Inc. reported that it has received organic certification approval from Ecocert Canada for its Global Wollastonite Agricultural Calcium Silicate product that is produced at the Company's St-Onge quarry in Quebec. Ecocert Canada has confirmed after inspection that Vertical's Global Wollastonite agricultural Calcium Silicate product is now an input approved for organic agriculture, and that it is compliant with CAN/CGSB-32.310 and CAN/CGSB- 32.311 (c categories which include substances that may be used for organic crop production as soil amendments). The review process for Vertical and other companies applying to be Ecocert approved is rigorous and must be renewed each year. Ecocert Canada, a subsidiary of the Ecocert group, has and continues to assist stakeholders in the implementation and promotion of sustainable practices through certification, consulting and training services. Committed for over 25 years to organic agriculture with Garantie Bio, Ecocert has become the benchmark for organic certification in Canada. With more than 100 employees and its 4 offices across the country, Ecocert Canada offers first-rate service in French and English to many sectors. Furthermore, the certifications issued by Ecocert guarantee and highlight the best environmentally friendly and socially conscious practices. The Ecocert approval now marks the second significant prestigious organic standards approval that Vertical has received for its Global Wollastonites Agricultural Calcium Silicate product this year, following the approval from the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) for both USA and Canada in three class the past March. The Ecocert and OMRI Canada/USA organic approvals and listings together create new and exciting opportunities for Vertical to pursue, including a broader range of domestic and international partnerships, joint ventures and revenue opportunities for its premium Global Wollastonite product. Vertical continues to recognize that sustainable organic food and goods are becoming more important each year, and with the global organic fertilizers market projected to reach USD 27.48 billion by 2030 and growing at a compound annual growth rate of 11.31% from 2023 to 2030, more companies involved in agricultural production are seeking organic certification in order to meet the fast-growing consumer demand. Being both Ecocert and OMRI approved and listed is critical for both farmers and organic producers as it eliminates questions surrounding inputs such as Vertical's Global Wollastonites and whether they meet the principles of organic production. Organic farmers and agricultural companies across Quebec, and throughout Canada and the USA, can now use Vertical's Global Wollastonsite Agricultural Calcium Silicate product and be in full compliance with organic standards. Vertical anticipates that this important Ecocert organic certification will lead to new opportunities in the upcoming months and year for its Global Wollastonsite, and it plans to pursue these opportunities with vigour and keep shareholders updated in this regard.

Vertical Exploration Inc. Provides 2022 Exploration Program Summary for Newly Acquired Quebec Wollastonite Property Vertical Exploration Inc. provided a summary of the 2022 Phase 1 exploration program undertaken on its recently acquired MénardPéribonka (Ménard) wollastonite property in Quebec. The 2022 program's objective was to detect and define the presence of marble rock zones that could potentially host wollastonite mineralization. Vertical contracted Magnor Exploration Inc. (Magnor) to conduct and complete the work program on the Menard property between May and September 2022. The Ménard property has an approximate surface area of 2,000 hectares (ha), and is located just north of Lac Saint-Jean in Saguenay, Quebec. The original historical work undertaken on the Ménard property was carried out by Resources Orléans (Orleans) between 1990 and 1992. At that time, Orleans also owned Vertical's St-Onge Wollastonite deposit which is located 26 km east of Ménard property. During the 2022 Phase 1 program, extensive exploration work was carried out on numerous historical wollastonite occurrences that were primarily located in the northern part of the Ménard property. From the 648 sites that were visited on the property during the 2022 program, more than 584 samples were taken for geochemical assay for trace elements and major oxide elements. These assayed samples are from grabbing/prospecting (256 samples), channelling (158 samples, 97.72m) and portable drilling (170 samples). More than 59 samples selected for prospecting contained wollastonite, varying from 5 to 67% wollastonite, and these were from sites located primarily in the northern part of the property. Magnor undertook hand-made trenching to reopen the old trenches and complete the channelling work, and this work confirmed the presence of wollastonite-rich rock bands ranging from 5 to 71% wollastonite over a metre to several meters in width (< 3.3m). The mineralized bands persist laterally for several dozen metres right up to 100 meters in length. Some areas in the northern part of the property were evaluated by 46 small bore (BQ) portable drill holes totaling 77.1 metres. The BQ holes were moderately dipped to intersect foliation and mineralization near a right angle to obtain true thicknesses of intersected mineralized intervals. Twenty of these BQ holes intersected wollastonite mineralization, ranging from 5 to 44% wollastonite over hole lengths ranging from 0.30 metres to 5.08 metres. The wollastonite zones identified during the 2022 program can potentially measure up to a hundred meters in width by several hundred meters in length. However, these zones are not homogeneous, and the wollastonite-bearing marble bands are most often intercalated with barren rock bands and/or crosscut by felsic intrusive dike and plug. Overall, the Company considers the 2022 Menard Phase 1 exploration program to be a success. This is based on the fact that most of the historic wollastonite mineralization results attained by Orléans were confirmed in the field during the 2022 program, and additionally new wollastonite mineralized sites were found both in the northern part and in other parts of the Menard property. Orléans had originally identified a mega wollastonite mineralized zone up to 300 metres wide by 2,000 metres long in the northern part of the property characterized by series of non-continuous outcrops with concentrations ranging from 5 to 40% wollastonite. The 2022 program confirmed this wollastonite mega zone by identifying 18 mineralized zones, of which 14 zones are in the northern block of the property.
