Titanium Corporation Inc. (the "Company" or "Titanium")
(TSX-V: TIC) announces that Scott Nelson will be retiring
from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of the
Company effective March 31, 2022. Upon Mr. Nelson’s retirement, and
until such time as the board of directors (the
"
Board") of the Company appoints a permanent Chief
Executive Officer, the Board has appointed the current Chairman,
Darren Morcombe, as the Company’s Executive Chairman and Interim
Chief Executive Officer effective March 31, 2022.
With the Chairman assuming an interim executive

In order to continue to benefit from Mr.
Nelson’s deep knowledge of the Company, government agencies and our
oil sand industry partners, Mr. Nelson will be engaged by the
Company as a consultant until the end of May 2025.
Mr. Nelson has worked tirelessly to progress the
development of the Company and its CVWTM technology since his
appointment in 2005. He has overseen the technical development and
successful piloting of the technology on tailings from a number of
oil sands operations, secured significant government support in the
form of grants and built a strong partnership with Canadian Natural
Resources Limited (“Canadian Natural”) to undertake FEED and
further optimisation studies for potential deployment of the CVWTM
technology at Canadian Natural’s Horizon site. The Board would like
to thank Scott for all his efforts advancing the Company to where
it is today, looks forward to continuing to work with him as
consultant and wishes Scott all the best in his retirement.
Announcing the changes, Mr. Morcombe thanked Mr.
Nelson for his efforts as CEO. “I look forward to continuing to
work with Scott and building onto the fantastic foundations he has
forged and with the incredible team he has built over the last 17
years. I personally appreciate his ongoing commitment to the
company even as his personal priorities change.”
Mr. Nelson said, “It has been a privilege to
work with the talented Titanium team and our industry and
government partners, collaboratively developing innovative clean
technology solutions for the oil sands industry. I am optimistic
about the future for our Company and the CVW™ technology which will
help the industry meet its ESG goals.”
About Titanium Corporation
Titanium is a clean technology innovator focused on providing
solutions to the mining sector of Canada’s oil sands industry.
Titanium Corporation’s CVW™ technology provides sustainable
solutions to reduce the environmental footprint of the oilsands
industry. Our technology reduces the environmental impact of oil
sands froth treatment tailings, while economically recovering
valuable products that would otherwise be lost. CVW™ recovers
bitumen, solvents, heavy minerals and water from tailings,
preventing these commodities from entering tailings ponds and the
atmosphere: volatile organic compound and greenhouse gas emissions
are materially reduced; hot tailings water is improved in quality
for recycling; and residual tailings can be thickened more readily.
A new minerals industry would be created with the production and
export of zircon and titanium, essential ingredients in the
ceramics and pigment industries.
