Article content

General exploration preparation followed by geologic fieldwork commenced toward the end of January 2026 and includes grid soil sampling on 100-metre line spacing with 50-metre sample intervals, in conjunction with detailed geological mapping. To date, approximately 40% of the core area of known mineralization has been systematically grid sampled.

The Company is particularly encouraged from data suggesting that a relatively shallow reverse circulation (RC) drilling program conducted in 2006 tested only the upper portions of the quartzite formation hosting the uranium mineralization. Project site mapping and regional study of the quartzite host unit has established that intrusion of a low-angle, 50 to 100-metre-thick dark intrusive dike rock did serve to obscure much of the lithology hosting mineralization.

Historic surface anomalies identified by both Mobile Metallic Ion (“MMI”) surveys in 2006 and radon gas surveys conducted on the Project in 2023, may indicate a potential response to mineralization beneath the intrusive unit. Elevated radon values are suggestive that the trend of the uranium mineralization could extend to the south and west under cover.

Article content

Field efforts in progress will remain focused on completing grid soil sampling, detailed geologic mapping and include efforts to identify structural pathways guiding the migration of radon gas.

Preliminary geochemical sampling has been completed and will be shipped to Paragon Geochemical followed by further rock and soil samples.
