VANCOUVER, Jan. 20, 2021 - International Consolidated Uranium Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Consolidated Uranium') (TSXV: CUR) announced today that Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Philip Williams, issued an open letter to shareholders of the Company.

To the shareholders of Consolidated Uranium:

As we begin 2021, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on our Company's achievements over the past year and set out our objectives for the upcoming year and beyond.

- Uranium Market Resurgence

Looking back to early last year, the decision to enter the uranium sector as a global consolidator does seem prescient. After trading in the low to mid $20.00 per lb for the better part of the previous three-years, the uranium spot price took off in April of 2020, driven by COVID related supply disruptions, touching a high of $34.00 per lb before settling at ~$30.00 per lb, where it stands today. Over that same period uranium equities experienced a significant rebound.

At Consolidated Uranium, we subscribe to the view that uranium prices, both spot and long term, are likely to move higher as the current price level is insufficient to support existing production or restart idle capacity let alone new mine development. At the same time, the outlook for nuclear power, the driver for uranium demand, is strong with reactor build programs advancing around the world and nuclear becoming a more prominent part of the low carbon power generation narrative.

This confluence of a potential uranium supply crunch with growing demand for nuclear power could be the perfect storm for the uranium sector this year and comes on the heels of a prolonged bear market where exploration and development spending has been steadily declining.

- Proven Business Model

Our strategy at Consolidated Uranium is to acquire uranium projects around the world that have seen significant past exploration expenditures and market attention but are not being advanced or focused on at present by the current owners. This consolidation strategy was proven in the previous uranium bull market (2005 to 2010), deployed by the likes of Mega Uranium Ltd. (TSX: MGA), Paladin Energy Ltd. (ASX: PDN) and Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR) as well as by several other companies that were ultimately acquired, such as Energy Metals Corporation, and Strathmore Minerals Corp. This strategy is being used not just to generate a pipeline of projects for development, but also to provide project and geographical diversification. This is a key part of our plan at Consolidated Uranium as history has shown, particularly in the uranium sector, that single asset, single jurisdiction companies have often failed due to project or political obstacles. At Consolidated Uranium, we are purposely building a diversified portfolio of projects by geography, stage of development and deposit type to mitigate this risk for our shareholders.

- Highly Experienced Team

The year 2020 saw many leadership changes at Consolidated Uranium. We added three new directors, each with deep mining, public markets and M&A experience. At the same time, we retained the uranium 'DNA' of the Company with original founders Leigh Curyer (CEO of NexGen Energy Ltd. (TSX: NXE)) and Richard Patricio (CEO of Mega Uranium Ltd. (TSX: MGA)) both moving into advisory roles. On the management side, I took the helm with over 15 years' experience in the uranium sector in different capacities ranging from research analyst, fund manager and investment banker to director, advisor, founder and Chief Executive Officer. Peter Mullens, based in Australia, joined the Company as Vice President, Corporate Development with a background of uranium project evaluation, acquisition and development while our new Chief Financial Officer, Greg Duras, boasts decades of experience with junior mining companies. Building out our uranium expertise will continue to be a focus in 2021 and I would be remiss not to mention the addition of Ted Wilton, who joined our advisory board with vast experience as a uranium geologist, including particular expertise in the United States.

- Compelling Portfolio of Initial Acquisitions

In 2020 we signed four option agreements to acquire five projects in three countries. As we built out the initial portfolio, we had exacting criteria for the individual project characteristics to pursue as well as how each project fits within our overall portfolio. Our approach involved targeting projects which have seen significant past expenditures and some level of resources delineated. While we recognize that substantial returns can be generated from a new discovery, we also recognize that there is significant risk in such a long-term approach.

Our initial portfolio checks a lot of boxes with options on projects in two of the top uranium producing jurisdictions in the world (Canada and Australia), having economic studies completed by previous operators (Ben Lomond and Laguna Salada), having shown grade potential in excess of the global average (Ben Lomond and Mountain Lake), containing vanadium as a by-product which may enhance economic extraction potential (Moran Lake and Laguna Salada) and, in aggregate, having prior expenditures of over $75m. Below is a brief snapshot of each project option we signed in 2020.

Ben Lomond and
Georgetown

Queensland, Australia

Mega Uranium Ltd.
(TSX: MGA)

May 14, 2020

Commentary:

The Ben Lomond and Georgetown projects together include previous expenditures of approximately $30m by Mega and boast attractive characteristics for future development, namely higher grade and low capex potential. Consolidated Uranium has engaged local consultants to review the resource and exploration potential of both projects as well as undertake a planned updated preliminary economic assessment and engage with local stakeholders. The exercise of the option is subject to Australian Federal Investment Review Board approval, an application for which is anticipated to be submitted early this year.

Mountain Lake

Nunavut, Canada

IsoEnergy Ltd.

(TSXV: ISO)

July 16, 2020

Commentary:

Mountain Lake has been the subject of substantial exploration including the drilling of over 200 holes by previous operators. Based on previous drilling, mineralization at Mountain Lake appears to be a shallow-dipping (5-10 degrees) strata-bound, tabular zone measuring 1,300 metres long and up to 320 metres wide. High grade mineralization is locally present, with drill intersections as reported by Pitchstone Exploration Ltd. and Triex Minerals Corp. returning up to 5.19% U3O8 over 0.9 metres. The Company anticipates seeking shareholder approval for the exercise of the option, in accordance with the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange, at its next annual and special meeting of shareholders to be held later this year.

Commentary:

Moran Lake is located in the Central Mineral Belt of Labrador, which includes several known and significant uranium deposits including Paladin Energy Ltd.'s advanced Michelin project. The 'C Zone' at Moran Lake was the subject of significant exploration between 2006 and 2013 with over $25m spent. The project hosts both uranium and vanadium resources and is prospective for IOCG style mineralization. The option transaction was completed, and the property was transferred to the Company on December 7, 2020, subject to compliance with the ongoing obligations set out in the option agreement.

Laguna Salada Uranium and Vanadium

Chubut, Argentina

U3O8 Corp.
(TSXV: UWE.H)

December 14, 2020

Commentary:

Laguna Salada is an advanced stage project with a historical preliminary economic assessment published in September 2014 and an initial historical mineral resource estimate for uranium and vanadium published in May 2011 (see the Company's press release dated December 14, 2020). The option agreement is expected to become effective once both parties have received conditional approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.

- Compelling Future Ahead

Completing the four option agreements last year was only 'phase one' of the Company's new strategy and we anticipate another active year ahead. Since employing this new business model, the Company has reviewed dozens of opportunities and has a full pipeline of projects under various stages of evaluation and negotiation with a range of counterparties.

Our ability to complete future transactions has been enhanced by our successful financings that were completed last year. In total, the Company raised gross proceeds of approximately $9.7m in 2020 and completed the year with sufficient cash on hand to fund near term expenditures and pursue additional opportunities. Importantly, the bulk of those funds were raised from sophisticated and institutional investors including investment funds with a specific mandate to invest in uranium companies. Through their investment, these funds have endorsed our team and model and, we believe, will be there to support the future growth of the Company. In order to further strengthen our ability to access capital for future opportunities, a large part of our focus this year will be to broaden investor awareness, both to retail investors and to the institutional community.

In closing, I would highlight that while 2020 was a tremendous year for the Company, as we executed successfully on all tenets of our new business plan, we feel confident that we are still in the initial stages of building out the Consolidated Uranium portfolio and ultimate value.

I would like to thank all our existing shareholders for supporting and joining us on this journey.

Yours truly,

Philip Williams, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Phrasebooks > Bikol phrasebook

Bikol is the main local language of the Bicol Region in southeastern Luzon, Philippines. It is strongly influenced by Spanish.

Belonging to the Austronesian family of languages, it is closely related to all the other languages in the Philippines like the larger Ilocano, Tagalog and Cebuano and more distantly to the various languages of the Pacific islands.

Malay, the main language of the Malaysia, is also closely related to Bikol, and while the two languages are not mutually intelligible, you will notice many cognates. There are also numerous false friends between Bikol and Malay, such as Malay pagi (morning) vs Bikol pagi (sting ray) and Bikol ayam (dog) vs Malay ayam (chicken).

Pronunciation guide[edit]

Accent marks[edit]

Diacritics (tandang panduon) are normally not written in everyday usage, be it in publications or personal correspondence. The teaching of diacritics is inconsistent in Philippine schools and many Bicolanos do not know how to use them. However, diacritics are normally used in dictionaries and in textbooks aimed at teaching the language to foreigners.

Therearethreekindsofdiacriticsusedin Bicol:

Acute accent or pahilíg

Used to indicate primary or secondary stress on a particular syllable; marháy. It is usually omitted on words that are stressed on the penultimate (second to the last) syllable; babáyi = babayi. It is possible that there is more than one stressed syllable in a word, meaning that that pahilíg mark may appear multiple times, as in Repúbliká. If there is no diacritic on the last two syllables of a word, then it means that there is stress on the penultimate syllable.

Grave accent or paiwà

It indicates that there is a glottal stop (/ʔ/) at the end of the word. This mark may only appear at the end of a word that ends in a vowel. This mark does not indicate stress. Therefore, following the previously stated rule on stress, sampulò is stressed on the second to the last syllable.

Circumflex accent or pakupyâ

It indicates that the final syllable of a word receives stress while there is a glottal stop that follows; udô. This is because it is a combination of the pahilíg and paiwà marks. This mark may only appear at the end of a word that ends in a vowel.

Stress[edit]

Although Bikol is pronounced as it is spelled, stress is very unpredictable and stressing the wrong syllable can lead to misinterpretation; for that reason, almost every book and dictionary concerning the Bikol language will put an accent mark (´) on the stressed syllable.

Vowels[edit]

In Bicol, two consecutive vowels are pronounced separately.

Numbers[edit]

There exist two names for the numbers in Bicol. The native Bicol and the Spanish names. Generally, Bicolanos use the Spanish terms if they are talking about time. You will, however, see the native terms if you would read literary books. If you are going on a shopping, prices are given in Spanish names.
