The main interest behind the buyout is the Valley of Vanadium project in Canada\u2019s Northwest Territories.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe the project has significant exploration upside,\u201d director Michael Konnert said in a media statement. \u201cIt is our goal for Regency to become a leader in the North American vanadium space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><q class='pullQuote-right'>Regency also signed a LOI with Cellcube Energy Storage Systems whereby it may acquire the Bisoni-McKay and Bisoni-Rio vanadium projects in Nevada.<\/q><\/p>\n<p>The Valley of Vanadium project is a 9,600-hectare site located northwest of the former tungsten Cantung mine. It is comprised of wholly-owned claims in addition to an option to acquire 100% of mining claims owned by Strategic Metals, previously known as the Van project.<\/p>\n<p>According to Regency, the project is a major sediment-hosted vanadium prospect that has not seen focused exploration since 1985 and where vanadium mineralization is principally developed in a moderately to steeply dipping, sooty black, carbonaceous, siliceous mudstone unit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHistorical geological mapping done in conjunction with chip sampling and diamond drilling indicates that this unit is at least 50 m thick and extends over a considerable strike length. Two lines of continuous chip samples collected 600 m apart across the prospective horizon returned weighted averages of 0.58% and 0.61% V2O5 over true widths of 56.1 m and 60.2 m, respectively. A diamond drill hole completed between the chip sample lines yielded a weighted average of 0.42% V2O5 over 52.5 m, within a broader zone averaging 0.3% V2O5 over 110 m.,\u201d corporate information
