    ALX Uranium Corp. (TSXV: AL; FSE: 6LLN; OTC: ALXEF) is pleased to announce that a diamond drilling program has commenced at the Gorilla Lake property (“Gorilla Lake”, or the “Property”) in the western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Gorilla Lake is located within the Carswell Impact Structure approximately 15 km north of the past-producing Cluff Lake uranium mine, which operated from 1980 to 2002.

    ALX Uranium Corp. (TSXV: AL; FSE: 6LLN; OTC: ALXEF) is pleased to announce that a diamond drilling program has commenced at the Gorilla Lake property (“Gorilla Lake”, or the “Property”) in the western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Gorilla Lake is located within the Carswell Impact Structure approximately 15 km north of the past-producing Cluff Lake uranium mine, which operated from 1980 to 2002.
    The 2017 drilling program is planned to include four holes totaling approximately 1,000 metres. Work will be focused on the northern portion of the Property and will follow up on basement- hosted uranium mineralization that was previously intersected in historical holes CLU01 (0.46% U 3 O 8 over 1.5 m) and CLU-07 (0.17% U 3 O 8 over 7.0 m), drilled in 2006. The uranium mineralization is associated with numerous conductors, as defined by airborne and ground electromagnetic (“EM”) surveys and is coincident with a distinct northeast-trending gravity low highlighted from a ground gravity survey conducted in the winter of 2016.
    In addition, drilling will test an airborne electromagnetic anomaly approximately 1,500 metres south of Gorilla Lake coincident within a distinct northeast-southwest striking gravity low.
    To view a map of the geophysical anomalies and planned 2017 drill target areas, please visit the ALX website at: https://www.alxuranium.com/projects/cluff-lake
