ALX Uranium Corp. Provides Update on Status of Cluff Lake Properties, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan

ALX Uranium Corp. (TSXV:AL; FSE:6LLN; OTC: ALXEF) (“ALX” or the “Company”) announced today changes in its portfolio of uranium exploration projects located near the past-producing Cluff Lake uranium mine (“Cluff Lake”) in the western Athabasca Basin area of northern Saskatchewan, Canada. ALX holds strategic exploration properties adjoining the former Cluff Lake mine site where over 62 million pounds of U3O8 were extracted during a 22-year operating life through a combination of three open pit mines and four underground mines by predecessor companies of Orano Canada Inc. (“Orano”, formerly AREVA Resources Canada Inc.).

Gorilla Lake Property

ALX owned an 80% interest in the Gorilla Lake property (“Gorilla Lake”) since 2008, with Logan Resources Ltd. (“Logan”) (TSXV: LGR) holding a 20% carried interest. Logan also held the right to secure a 100% interest in Gorilla Lake if ALX allowed the property to have less than two years good standing with the Government of Saskatchewan. In early 2017, ALX drilled four holes totaling 1,116 metres. After its review and interpretation of the results of the 2017 drilling program, the Company made the decision to return the Gorilla Lake claims to Logan with less than two years of assessment credits remaining. Under the terms of a recent settlement agreement with Logan, ALX has agreed to issue 400,000 of its common shares to Logan at a deemed price of $0.075 per common share to cure the assessment credit deficiency, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. As a result, ALX now holds no interest in Gorilla Lake.

Middle Lake Property

ALX has owned an 80% interest in the Middle Lake property (“Middle Lake”) since 2008, with Affinity Metals Corp. (TSXV: AFF), through its predecessor companies, holding a 20% carried interest. Middle Lake originally consisted of a single claim totaling approximately 2,416 hectares. In late January 2018, ALX doubled the size of Middle Lake by staking two new claims located immediately adjacent to Orano’s Cluff Lake mine property. Middle Lake now consists of three contiguous claims totaling approximately 4,833 hectares with the claims in good standing to 2030 and 2040.

Bridle Lake Property

ALX owns a 50% interest in the Bridle Lake property (“Bridle Lake”), which is also 50% owned by Rio Tinto Canada Uranium Corporation. Bridle Lake consists of two claims totaling approximately 6,787 hectares, one of which is contiguous to the Cluff Lake mine property. There is no change to ALX’s ownership at Bridle Lake and the two claims are in good standing until 2024.
