Holes PLS13-123 and PLS13-124 at the recently discovered sixth zone returned significant radioactivity; their location confirms continuity of the zone over a 30m strike length (585W to 615W).

As quoted in the press release:

Drilling Highlights include:

  • PLS13-124 (line 615W)
    • 37.0m total composite mineralization (within 97.5m – 208.5m)
  • PLS13-123 (line 585W)
    • 32.5m total composite mineralization (within 95.0m – 163.5m)
  • Current drilling ends with 1.77km strike length of mineralized trend and six zones  along trend

Alpha Minerals President, Ben Ainsworth, said:

The Joint Venture has achieved in this 12 month program of drilling almost what was completed in 4 years of work on Hathor’s Roughrider discovery. Alpha management is very pleased with the close working of the two JV partners which ESO Uranium Corp initiated with Strathmore Minerals Corp in January 2007 and continued with the transition to Fission Energy, the Spinco of the Canadian assets of Strathmore, that has allowed this to happen. These last holes indicate how important it is to continue to maintain a disciplined and tight drill pattern with proper instruction to drill crews, who have completed a remarkable program this year, as to where to start coring when the overburden thickness is reasonably predictable and allows this.
