HIGHLIGHTS

  • Multiple new targets confirmed with rock chip assay results:
    • 3.95% Cu, 229g/t Ag and 3.06% Pb in channel sample at Huancune target

All the selective rock chip samples have a high potential for bias and should not be considered as being representative of the overall mineralised structure or zone.

Executive Chairman Mr George Bauk commented,“These results continue to demonstrate strong copper mineralisation extending to the north and south of the original Picha Project mineralisation previously disclosed. As outlined in Figure 1, a strong mineralisation trend runs through the project area to the nearby San Gabriel Project owned by Buenaventura SAA (NYSE:BVN)”.

“In the past few weeks we have seen the San Gabriel Project (7.6 Moz AuEq Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resource1) receive mining approval from the relevant authorities which provides Buenaventura with a green light to proceed with the development of this project, which is located within 10km of the Picha Project”.

“Work continues with field work on the Picha Project along with working on the permitting process for the commencement of our maiden drill program this year”.

Juniors Key to Canada’s Strategic Role in Global Uranium Supply

The global uranium market is experiencing a significant resurgence, driven by a renewed interest in nuclear energy as countries worldwide strive to meet ambitious zero-carbon targets.

This renaissance in nuclear energy is creating a substantial increase in uranium demand, with current estimates indicating that approximately 67,500 metric tons of uranium are required annually for existing reactors.

Projections suggest this demand could climb by 28 percent by 2030 and potentially double by 2040.
