ASX :

Strategically located in proximity to recent high grade, shallow uranium discoveries.

Tenure

  • 339km2 landholding located 7km southeast of the present edge of the Athabasca Basin and 10km west of highway 905
  • Adjacent tenure to 92 Energy’s (ASX:92E) Gemini discovery 43m @ 0.6% U3O8 incl 6m @ 2.2% U3O8** and Baselode Energy’s (TSXV:FIND) ACKIO discovery 31.0m @ 0.9% U3O8 **

History

  • Historical airborne and ground exploration completed between 1967 and 1980 targeting base metal mineralisation
  • A central trend was identified with Cu and Mo showings surrounding Mud Lake; Mo is a key identifier for potential U3O8 mineralisation
