Aventis Energy Inc. reports news centered on mineral exploration at the Corvo Uranium Project in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin region. Company updates cover drilling programs, field mobilization, mapping and sampling work, surface assay results, natural-gamma radioactivity readings, and target development along uranium trends.
Recurring developments also include NI 43-101 technical reporting, work completed under the Corvo earn-in option agreement with Standard Uranium, and the use of KorrAI hyperspectral imaging, artificial intelligence, geospatial data, radon stress analysis, and related datasets to refine exploration targets. Governance and technical updates include advisory appointments tied to exploration planning and project execution.
Aventis Energy (VBAMF) signed an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the past-producing Seneca project in British Columbia. The agreement with Turnagain Resources and 1240089 B.C. requires $250,000 cash, $400,000 in common shares and at least $150,000 in exploration spending over three years. Exercise would grant the sellers a 2% net smelter returns royalty, purchasable in full for $1,000,000. Canadian Securities Exchange acceptance remains pending.
The 863.16-hectare property has four historically identified zones along a 4.5-kilometre belt. Historical drilling includes 2.6 metres grading 20.28% zinc and 0.94% copper, with 100 g/t silver and 3.05 g/t gold. Underlying historical data and current target status have not been independently verified. Aventis plans to consolidate historical data, define drill targets and begin fieldwork.
Aventis Energy (VBAMF) plans an October 2026 surface exploration program at Corvo to follow up uranium showings and winter drilling results. Standard Uranium will operate the mapping, prospecting and sampling program, funded by Aventis under a three-year earn-in option agreement.
Winter drilling confirmed anomalous uranium in all nine holes: 55 metres above 10 parts per million uranium, including 23 metres above 50 and 13 metres above 100, using partial digestion analysis. Manhattan surface samples returned 1.19–8.10% U3O8, a uranium oxide measure. Historical SMDI showing 2052 returned 0.137% U3O8 and 2,300 parts per million thorium.
Aventis plans to integrate surface results with drilling and geophysical datasets ahead of a second drilling phase planned for 2027. Priority uranium targets remain along more than 25 kilometres of structural strike length, the distance along the geological structures.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) has commenced a fully funded winter diamond drilling program at its 12,364-hectare Corvo Uranium Project in the southeast Athabasca Basin, with drilling begun February 9, 2026.
The 5–6 week program plans ~2,500–3,000 metres across 8–10 holes targeting shallow, basement-hosted uranium, starting at the Manhattan target after 2025 geophysics and prospecting work.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) has begun mobilization for a maiden diamond drilling program at the Corvo Uranium Project in the eastern Athabasca Basin. The winter 2026 program targets the high-grade Manhattan Showing (surface grab up to 8.10% U3O8) with ~3,000 metres of skid-supported drilling across 8–10 holes to test EM conductors and density anomalies.
Site access and road construction are underway and drilling is scheduled to commence imminently.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) completed a high-resolution ground gravity survey across the Corvo Uranium Project covering >29 km of EM conductor strike and >5,000 measurement stations, and finalized planning for a winter maiden drill program. A skid-supported diamond drill program of ~2,500–3,000 metres in 8–10 holes targets shallow basement-hosted uranium mineralization typically 200–300 m depth. Mobilization to the field is scheduled for early February 2026, with Aventis funding 100% of the year-one program. Historical outcrop grab samples include a reported 8.10% U3O8 surface assay at the Manhattan Showing; historical data remain unverified.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) received 18-month drill and exploration permits for the Corvo Uranium Project on Nov 27, 2025. Work begins with a high-resolution 50 m x 200 m ground gravity survey of >29 km conductive strike (more than 5,000 measurement stations), mobilized Nov 24, 2025. A skid-assisted diamond drill program ~3,000 metres is planned to start in January 2026—the first drilling on Corvo in over 40 years—targeting the Manhattan Showing and newly identified radioactive occurrences. Surface grab samples previously returned up to 8.10% U3O8. The Project lies ~60 km east of McArthur River and ~45 km northeast of the Gemini Mineralized Zone.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) announced a satellite-based, AI-powered hyperspectral study with KorrAI Technologies at its Corvo uranium project (12,265 hectares) along the eastern margin of Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin on November 10, 2025.
The analysis identified three principal corridors of elevated biogeochemical vegetation stress that may reflect radiogenic gases (e.g., radon) and favorable basement lithologies or fault conduits. Work tied anomalies to known structural trends and a mapped granitic pluton; the latter is noted as unlikely to be an explorable unconformity-type uranium target.
The company also increased its digital advertising budget to $400,000 CDN (additional $150,000 CDN) with RMK Marketing. A qualified person reviewed and approved the technical information.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) announced that Standard Uranium filed a NI 43-101 technical report titled “Technical Report on the Corvo Property – Northeastern Saskatchewan, Canada” with an effective date of October 24, 2025.
The Report was co-prepared by Axiom Exploration Group and co-authored by Qualified Persons Troy Marfleet, P.Geo., and Sean Hillacre, M.Sc., P.Geo. It does not contain a Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE). The Report is publicly available on SEDAR+ and Standard Uranium’s website.
Aventis Energy (OTC: VBAMF) reported final assay results from its 2025 Corvo exploration program, confirming surface uranium mineralization including outcrop grab samples of 0.72%–8.10% U3O8 at the Manhattan showing.
The program submitted 30 outcrop and boulder samples to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories; 28 radioactive samples returned uranium and TREO* assays. A helicopter TDEM and magnetic survey covering ~1,380 line-km outlined conductive trends (~29 km). A high-resolution ground gravity survey is scheduled for December 2025 and a maiden diamond drill program is planned for Q1 2026.
Aventis Energy (OTC:VBAMF, CSE:AVE, FRA:C0O0) announced on October 14, 2025 the appointment of Chris Fozard as Technical Advisor to support advancement of the Sting and Corvo projects.
Fozard has over 20 years of Canadian and international exploration experience across China, Liberia, Chile and multiple Canadian provinces and territories, and has worked on deposit types including Archean, Carlin-type, epithermal, orogenic gold, molybdenum porphyry, magmatic chromium-cumulate, and volcanogenic massive sulphides.
The company granted 50,000 stock options to Fozard exercisable at $0.39 per share for a two-year term; shares issued on exercise are subject to a four-month hold under Canadian Securities Exchange policy.
