Titanium Announces Project Funding by Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA) for Engineering Design of Tailings Treatment/ Bitumen, Solvent and Minerals Recovery System

CALGARY, ALBERTA--(Marketwired - Jul 7, 2017) - Titanium Corporation Inc. ("Titanium" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:TIC) is pleased to announce that the Company's project "Reducing Methane Emissions and Other Environment Impacts from Oil Sands Tailings and Ponds - Deployment of Sustainable Technology ("Project")" is a successful applicant in ERA's Methane Challenge.

Titanium is working with Canadian Natural Resources Limited ("Canadian Natural") to conduct engineering design for an oil sands tailings treatment system that eliminates certain tailings streams while recovering bitumen, solvent, and high-value minerals. By preventing solvent and bitumen release, the vast majority of methane emissions from mined oil sands operations can be reduced. The technology is targeted at froth treatment tailings, which are estimated to be responsible for more than 90% of methane emissions from tailings ponds. Results from the Canadian Natural-sponsored project will be applicable to other large oil sands mines and results will be shared and disseminated through Canada's Oil Sands Innovation Alliance.

The Company's Project has been approved for funding of up to the lessor of $5,000,000 Canadian Dollars or 50% of the total eligible Project expenses. ERA's funding approval is subject to written confirmation by August 31, 2017 that all other sources of funding for the project have been secured and successful negotiation by September 29, 2017 of a Contribution Agreement with ERA on terms satisfactory to ERA.

"We are gratified that ERA has selected our Company for funding and are excited about the potential for a first commercial implementation of our Creating Value from Waste™ technology," commented Scott Nelson, Titanium's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Our team is working closely with Canadian Natural to meet the timelines and conditions set by ERA and move forward with engineering design".
