Aventis Energy Bolsters Targets Along Uranium Trends at the Corvo Uranium Project with KorrAI Technologies

Rhea-AI Summary

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.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aventis Energy Inc. (“Aventis” or the “Company”)  (CSE: AVE | FRA: C0O0 | OTC: VBAMF) is pleased to announce that, in partnership with KorrAI Technologies Inc. (“KorrAI”), it has identified hotspots of biogeochemically stressed vegetation that may be linked to the presence of radiogenic compounds and radon related to uranium mineralization at the Corvo Project (“Corvo” or the “Project”). The Project is comprised of 12,265 hectares of uranium exploration real estate located along the eastern margin of Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin.

KorrAI completed a satellite-based remote sensing study powered by geology-driven artificial intelligence (the “Program”). Hyperspectral data were analyzed and processed to identify potential areas of biogeochemically stressed vegetation potentially caused by environmental stressors such as radiogenic compounds.

Michael Mulberry, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “With the findings provided by KorrAI, we are very excited to be driving further advancement at Corvo. Through a combination of artificial intelligence, hyperspectral satellite data, and high-resolution optical and infrared datasets, we have identified several corridors of interest that have allowed for more detailed modeling of the Project. We are pleased to be working in partnership with KorrAI, a leading technology firm in the exploration industry, and we look forward to uncovering new insights at Corvo as we move forward.”

Highlights - The analysis defined three principal zones of elevated biogeochemical stress:

• Northeast-southwest trend in the central segment of the area of interest:
  

If accurately positioned above a faulted zone, this zone of elevated biogeochemical stress could be indicative of faults acting as conduits for radiogenic gases, e.g., radon, and therefore could be indicative of concentrated uraniferous lithology at a depth intersected by the faults.

• Eastern trend:
  

A linear grouping appears to trend along pelitic and psammo-pelitic gneiss in the eastern section of the claim with a strong signature grouped close to the felsic gneiss identified by surface mapping.

• Overlying the intrusive body at the west of the Project:
  

A significant grouping of incidences of elevated biogeochemical stresses appears to generally correlate with a mapped granitic pluton (Wg) along the western extent of the Project. While granitic plutons can often exhibit elevated radiometric signatures, this is unlikely to result in an explorable uranium target given the unconformity-type play pursued in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin.

The work forms part of KorrAI’s ongoing effort to integrate artificial intelligence and hyperspectral satellite data into early and mid-stage exploration. Using high-resolution optical and infrared datasets, the Company modeled vegetation stress patterns associated with uranium-related radiogenic decay. These biogeochemical signatures, when overlain on geological maps, highlighted several areas of interest that correspond to known structural trends on the Project.

According to KorrAI, these anomalies may correspond closely with favourable basement lithologies and faulted graphitic horizons previously identified through airborne geophysics and surface mapping. The results reinforce the Project area’s potential to host shallow-cover, basement-hosted uranium mineralization analogous to other Athabasca region deposits.
