(TSXV: V) (OTCQB: VUECF) ("Verdera" or the "Company") announced today that the Company has entered into a Mineral Property Purchase and Sale Agreement pursuant to which Americas Uranium Corp. has agreed to acquire a 100% interest, subject to royalties, in the Treeline Uranium Project located in New Mexico, USA.

Janet Lee-Sheriff, Verdera Energy's Chief Executive Officer stated: "The Treeline Uranium Project transaction is an example of the potential wealth of opportunities available to Verdera from the New Mexico database acquired through the enCore Energy transaction and acquisition of the Kerr McGee New Mexico database. While Treeline is a good exploration project with potential to expand the historic mineralization previously outlined, Verdera's business plan is to focus on advancing its four large-scale properties with historical resources established by name-brand oil companies. This transaction provides immediate value to the Company and its shareholders on a property not in our project pipeline. At Verdera, our team continues to advance our key projects including a NI 43-101 technical report underway on the West Largo Project while we data-mine the vast database, containing over 200,000 drill hole logs, for additional opportunities."
