Voyageur Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Announces Withdrawal of Corporate Presentation and Update on the Fullerene Project



Calgary, Alberta - TheNewswire - November 18th, 2020 - Voyageur Pharmaceuticals Ltd. (TSXV:VM) (OTC:VYYRF) (the "Company" or "Voyageur") announces that it has formally withdrawn its 2017 corporate presentation titled "Voyageur Minerals Ltd. - Focussed on Critical & Strategic Minerals" (the "Presentation") and any guidance set out therein. The Presentation was previously accessible on the Company's website and through LinkedIn. Any reader who viewed the Presentation is cautioned not to place any reliance on the information contained therein. In the Presentation, reference was made to the LONG CANYON #1 oil well and the ROBERTS BRINE WELL. These wells are located at least 0.8 kilometres from Voyageur's Paradox Basin property in Utah (the "ULI Property") and Voyageur has no interest in these wells. Minimal exploration has been conducted on the ULI Property and there have been no wells drilled on that property.

The joint venture on the ULI Property was halted by Anson Resources Ltd. ("Anson") due to a law suit relating to a royalty dispute. Anson has not completed phase 1 of the joint venture. The lawsuit is expected to be concluded in the first quarter of 2021 and the Company and Anson will determine whether to continue with the joint venture on the ULI Property after its conclusion.

Fullerene Project Update

The Company issued a news release on May 11, 2020 that provided an update on the Company's C-60 - Fullerene project (the "Project"). The Company would like to clarify that the information provided in that news release was preliminary and a significant amount of due diligence and work is required to progress the Project or draw any conclusions about the Project's viability. Voyageur expects that due diligence and work on the Project will be continued after Covid 19 travel and quarantine restrictions are lifted, which at this time cannot be determined with any certainty. Currently Voyageur has no rights to the fullerene and has not been able to determine with any certainty that the Project is viable.

Investors should not consider the Project in their investment analysis of the Company. The letter of intent signed for the Project is non-binding. At this time, the Company cannot estimate when any binding agreements will be entered into and any such agreements will be dependent on the outcome of the due diligence and work referred to above.

Voyageur is focused on moving its Frances Creek barium sulfate project forward and the use of funds for near term financings are to be allocated for the Frances Creek project.
