Fission Step Out Hits High-Grade Mineralization, Expands Zones at PLS

Fission Uranium Corp. (TSX:FCU) announced the results from 15 angled holes drilled on the R600W, R00E, R780E and R1620E zones at its PLS property, which saw the R600W zone expand and hole PLS15-372 intercept a new high-grade interval about 30 meters north of the zone. The drilling also expanded the R780E and R1620E zones and two holes hit mineralization on line 150E, located in the 225 meter gap separating R00E from R780E.

Drill highlights include:

• New High-Grade Interval Discovered 30 meters north of the R600W main zone (PLS15-372)
• Expansion of Three Zones: R600W Main Zone has doubled from pre-2015 strike length to 60 meters. Lateral width has increased, presently up to 30 meters
• R780E High-Grade Core has expanded on several lines (315E, 435E, 480E, 870E)
• R1620E Mineralization Footprint has increased to 45 meters strike length with PLS15-357 (line 1575E)
• Gap between R00E zone and R780E zone: mineralization has been intersected on line 150E at Triple R deposit (PLS15-328 and PLS15-356)
• Substantial high-grade intercepts in eight holes, including:Hole PLS15-369 (line 870E) – zone R780E
• 78.0 meters total composite mineralization over a 281.5 meter section (between 76.0m – 357.5m) including:
• 5.24 meters total composite mineralization of >10,000 cps radioactivity
• Hole PLS15-375 (line 480E) – zone R780E
• 59.5m total composite mineralization over a 134.0 meter section (between 75.5m – 209.5m) including:
• 5.08m total composite mineralization of >10,000 cps radioactivity
• Hole PLS15-367 (line 645W) – zone R600W
• 56.0 meter mineralized interval (between 98.0m – 154.0m) including:
• 4.00 meters total composite mineralization of >10,000 cps radioactivity

Ross McElroy, president, COO and chief geologist for Fission, commented:

PLS continues to impress and surprise us, for example with the results at R600W.Not only is the main high-grade zone growing, but the intersection in PLS15-356 of a new, possibly parallel, high-grade interval 30m to the north is a validation that R600W is host to a very considerable amount of strong uranium mineralization. We are also extremely pleased with the continued expansion of high-grade mineralization in the R780E zone and the eastward expansion of the R1620E zone.
