As quoted in the press release:

Drill Program
Bryson Drilling has been awarded the contract to drill 8 to 10 diamond drill core holes in 2500 – 3000m. All holes are based on geophysics targets. Three main areas will be tested:

  • North-northwest trending central conductive meta-sedimentary belt
  • Geophysical anomalies under Hodge Lake in the southern project area
  • Prospective north-northwest trending conductor in central/southern PLN

Initial targets will focus on the northwest-southeast (NW-SE) trending A1, A1B and A3 basement EM conductors located in the west-central area of the property. In addition drill targets along the B basement EM conductor located in the central area of the project area will be tested.

Azincourt Uranium President and CEO, Ted O’Connor, said:

We are excited to start the 2014 winter drill program as follow up to the successful target development and prioritization work already completed. PLN has favourable geology, similar to the nearby Patterson Lake South discovery and the additional targeting surveys planned for the project will use the same techniques proven effective by Fission Uranium at PLS. The highly capable Fission 3.0 technical team and contractors carrying out the project work have proven success and Azincourt looks forward to working closely with our JV Partner to advance the project.
