MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - March 1, 2018) - HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (HPQ) (TSX VENTURE:HPQ)(FRANKFURT:UGE)(OTC PINK:URAGF) invites shareholders and investors to stop by the HPQ booth 2145 at the PDAC and take advantage of the opportunity to talk with HPQ management about the PUREVAP QRR Project milestones, and plans for 2018 and 2019.

Bernard J. Tourillon, Chairman and CEO of HPQ Silicon stated, "Our methodical approach is yielding exciting results, and we are becoming more optimistic about the success of this project. With every milestone, we are de-risking our project for investors as we advance toward Pilot Plant construction and arrange financings. 2018 and 2019 look very promising, as we continue to build on our technical successes, and build market awareness of the technical and financial progress of our project."

HPQ is in advanced discussions with both a strategic and an institutional investor regarding potential financial backing to cover the remaining costs of the PUREVAP™ project. While there are no guarantees of success, discussions are ongoing with a goal of closing during Q2 2018.

In addition to the project funding described above, the Company has plans to raise an additional $2,000,000. These funds will be used for marketing, a buffer for potential cost over runs, and further G&A and R&D through 2019 as the Company continues to grow.
