According to the press release, highlights include:

Hole PLS14-290 (line 735E)
Key interval: 64.5m (133.5m to 198.0m) @ 3.72% U3O8, including:
6.5m (153.0m to 159.5m) @ 32.53% U3O8
82.0m of total composite mineralization >0.05% U3O8 over a 172.5m section (113.5m to 286.0m)
Designed as a scissor hole on line 735E (see note on Scissor Holes)
Hole PLS14-286 (line 495E)
Key interval: 21.9m (61.1m to 83.0m) @ 7.91% U3O8, including:
9.5m (70.5m to 80.0m) @ 17.30% U3O8
86.4m of total composite mineralization >0.05% U3O8 over a 103.9m section (61.1m to 165.0m)
Hole PLS14-276 (line 570E)
Key interval: 10.0m (71.5m to 81.5m) @ 13.84% U3O8, including:
4.5m (72.5m to 77.0m) @ 29.29% U3O8
47.0m of total composite mineralization >0.05% U3O8 over a 168.0m section (71.5m to 239.5m)

Ross McElroy, president, COO and chief geologist, said:

The final batch of R780E zone drilling assays includes a large number of very strong holes. We have now received all the U3O8 assay data required for a NI 43-101 compliant Maiden Resource for the R00E and R780E zones and we expect to be able to release preliminary results by early 2015.
