Three highly prospective projects in the renowned Athabasca Basin, strategically located in proximity to recent high-grade, shallow uranium discoveries. 

Drill Ready unconformity uranium targets Drilling has identified a uranium within significant alteration strategically located adjacent to recent high grade shallow uranium discoveries

Basin Energy projects in relation to Athabasca Basin uranium deposits.

Geikie

Drilling identified anomalous uranium within a structured alteration system comparable to multiple world-class, basement-hosted uranium deposits of the Athabasca Basin.

TENURE

  • Option agreement in place with CanAlaska for Basin to earn up to 80% (currently 60%)​.
  • 339 km2 landholding 7 km from the present-day edge of the Athabasca Basin​.
  • Adjacent tenure to Atha Energy’s GMZ discovery (TSXV-SASK), and Baselode Energy’s ACKIO discovery (TSXV-FIND)​.

Basin Energy’s Geikie project location adjacent to recent basement style discoveries.

Basin Energy’s recent drilling showing similarities to major basement hosted uranium deposits.

MAIN FEATURES

  • Drilling by Basin identified:
    • Uranium anomalism intersected demonstrating a uranium fertile system​
    • Highest grade was 0.27% U3O8 over
      0.5 m at Aero Lake​.
    • 263 ppm over 9 m at Preston Creek
  • Pathfinder elements for uranium mineralisation, specifically lead isotope anomalies, were observed in multiple drill holes​.
  • Scale of structures and associated alteration hit​:
    • Large-scale complex fault systems.
    • Extensive alteration present to demonstrate that fluid has been active, with strong analogies to major basement hosted Athabasca uranium deposits​.
  • Drill-target rich – further drilling required.​

Marshall and North Millennium​

Ground electromagnetics has identified a classic unconformity uranium target within the heartland of the major Athabasca deposits ​

TENURE

  • Marshall project is 100% Basin owned, with an operator agreement in place with CanAlaska uranium. 112 km2 land holding .​
  • North Millennium Project is 40% Basin owned under an option agreement with CanAlaska for Basin to earn up to 80%. 58 km2 landholding 7km from majority Cameco owned Millennium deposit.​

Classic drill EM target at Basin’s Marshall project.

MAIN FEATURES

  • No known drilling within the project areas however drilling on the adjacent McTavish project intersected elevated pathfinders including Ni, Co, Cu and Zn with uranium anomalism up to 0.12% U3O8.​
  • Ground electromagnetic surveys completed by Basin Energy identified multiple drill-ready unconformity targets.
  • Located within the heartland of major uranium deposits, 7 kms from Cameco’s Millennium deposit (104.8 Mlbs @ 3.76% U3O8) and under 40 km from the prolific McArthur River Mine (674.9 Mlbs @ 16.9% U3O8)​
