Fission Uranium Corp. (TSX:FCU,OTCQX:FCUUF) announced results from the initial five step-out angled drill holes completed as part of the winter drill program at its PLS property. PLS hosts the Triple R deposit, for which the company recently released a maiden resource estimate, and is located in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin.

As quoted in the press release:

All five holes returned wide mineralization, including variable intervals of >10,000 cps radioactivity and were drilled in the R780E zone, part of the recently announced high-grade, near-surface Triple R deposit (see NR Jan 9, 2015). Of particular note is PLS15-299 (line 480E), with a continuous mineralized interval of 92.0m at shallow depth, including 3.44m total composite >10,000 cps radioactivity with peaks up to 52,000 cps.

Drill highlights include:

Widening of R780E Main Zone 25m to the North (line 480E), 10m to the south (line 720E) and 45m vertically (line 465E).

Hole PLS15-299 (line 480E)

• 92.0m mineralized section (between 60.0m – 152.0m) including:
  • 3.44m total composite mineralization of (>10,000 cps) radioactivity

Hole PLS15-303 (line 465E)

• 16m total composite mineralization over a 33.5m section (between 56.0m – 89.5m) including:
  • 4.05m total composite mineralization of (>10,000 cps) radioactivity

Hole PLS15-302 (line 720E)

• 44.0m total composite mineralization over a 96.5m section (between 131.5m – 228.0m) including:
  • 2.45m total composite mineralization of (>10,000 cps) radioactivity
