Voyageur Pharmaceuticals Ltd.
  

Calgary, AB - TheNewswire - May 31, 2023 - Voyageur Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (TSXV:VM) (OTC:VYYRF) ("Voyageur" or the "Corporation") announces the successful completion of environmental and geotechnical field work at its Frances Creek project site. This milestone represents a significant achievement for the Corporation and its 100% owned subsidiary, Voyageur Industrial Minerals Ltd., as it fulfills both the exploration notice of work for barite sampling from the surface vein and paves the way for future quarry permitting.

Undertaken in collaboration with Vast Resource Solutions, a firm based in Cranbrook, B.C., the detailed site assessment encompassed a comprehensive evaluation of existing baseline conditions within and surrounding the site. It also involved meticulous collection of soil and rock samples, along with a thorough review of the current and potential site access road.

The data, samples, and road assessment gathered during this process will serve as crucial inputs for various planning aspects, including site soil handling and reclamation, invasive weed management practices, acid rock drainage/metal leaching potential, process area planning, and safe access road options.

Voyageur firmly upholds its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability, and this is evident in the work conducted at Frances Creek. All activities have been carried out in strict compliance with rigorous environmental standards. As part of our dedication to transparency and regulatory adherence, the findings and outcomes of the field work will be promptly submitted to the BC Ministry of Mines.
