The Catley Lake and Centennial East properties are contiguous and together cover 8,117 hectares. The properties are immediately adjacent to the Cameco Centennial deposit claims. The Cameco Centennial deposit is located just 12km to the west and has notable uranium concentrations of up to 8.78% U 3 O 8 over 33.9m and 25.6% U 3 O 8 over 0.5m.
 Approximately 24km southwest of Lancaster's claims is the Cameco Dufferin deposit, which has shown assays of up to 1.73% U 3 O 8 over 6.5m. Management cautions that mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of the presence of similar mineralization or geology on Lancaster's properties.
  Exploration Plans Â
 Lancaster's exploration plans include an initial detailed surface outcrop mapping, using hyperspectral data to identify vegetation stress indicative of subsurface uranium, acquiring high-resolution optical imagery, and purchasing corrected imagery for hyperspectral analysis (HSI).
 The HSI results will be incorporated to support prioritizing and focusing follow-up field geology, geochemical sampling, and geophysics programs on the selected areas from the HSI program that show positive indications for uranium. Upon completion of the field work and geophysics program, target locations will be identified for an initial drilling program planned for Q4 2024.
  Uranium as a Clean Energy Solution Â
 Uranium is increasingly recognized as a vital component in the transition to clean energy. Nuclear power plants, which use uranium as fuel, produce no carbon emissions during operation, making them a key player in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. With its high energy density, uranium generates a substantial amount of energy from a small amount of material, resulting in a minimal environmental footprint. Moreover, nuclear energy is highly reliable and capable of providing consistent, baseload power, unlike intermittent renewable sources such as solar and wind. This reliability makes it a crucial component in ensuring a stable and clean energy supply as the world moves towards net-zero carbon emissions by 2050​ (  IEA  )​​ (  World Economic Forum  )​​ (  Elements by Visual Capitalist  )​​ (  Yale E360  )​.
  Financing Â
 To fund the uranium exploration, the Company is offering Critical Mineral Flow-Through units ("FT Units") at $0.05 per FT Unit. Each FT Unit consists of one flow-through common share and one share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one non-flow-through common share for a period of 3 years at a price of $0.10. The Company may pay finders' fees up to 8% cash and 8% non-transferable finder warrants in connection with the issuance of FT Units. Each finder warrant is exercisable to purchase one common share for a period of 3 years at a price of $0.05.
 To fund its maiden drill program at Alkali Flat in New Mexico, USA, the Company is offering a non-brokered private placement for Units at $0.03 per Unit, each consisting of one non-flow-through common share and one share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one non-flow-through common share for a period of 3 years at a price of $0.06. The Company may pay finders' fees up to 8% cash and 8% non-transferable finder warrants in connection with the issuance of non-flow-through Units. Each finder warrant is exercisable to purchase one common share for a period of 3 years at a price of $0.03.
 All securities issued and sold under the offering will be subject to a four-month and one-day hold period.
 The proceeds from the offering will be used for exploration at the Catley Lake and Centennial East Properties, including outcrop mapping, hyperspectral analysis, and initial drilling, drilling at the Alkali Flat Project in New Mexico, accounting fees, general and administrative expenses, and accounts payable.
