Hathor Exploration Limited (TSX:HAT) provided a further update on the 2011 summer drill program at the Far East Zone of the Roughrider uranium deposit in the Athabasca Basin.
The press release is quoted as saying:
Highlights from drill hole MWNE-11-715 include:
- Composited interval of 27.0 m of 7.91% U3O8, including 3.5 m of 41.77 % U3O8
- Combined drill hole GT (grade x thickness) of 215, the new highest GT on Far East, and the 12th highest GT of the nearly 400 drill holes completed on Roughrider so far.
Assays are pending for 2 drill holes from the Far East Zone, including MWNE-11-718, which intersected a total of 17.30 m of off-scale radioactivity; the greatest amount of off-scale radioactivity within a single drill hole at Far East. This radioactivity was intersected in two zones (Figure 3): one at a depth correlative with other drill hole intersections at Far East, and; one at a much shallower depth, only 45 m below the unconformity. The shallower zone presents significant potential for the discovery of an additional zone in the Roughrider system.
