NexGen Announces Expansion Continues at the Arrow Deposit

NexGen (TSX:NXE) has announced that radioactivity results on seven holes from its ongoing summer drilling program on its 100 percent owned Rook I property in the Athabasca Basin.
As quoted in the press release:

Mineralized zones in the A1, A2 and A3 shears continue to be confirmed and rapidly expanded by drilling. In the higher gradeA2 sub-zone (the “Sub-Zone”), AR-16-96c2intersecteddense accumulations of massive to semi-massive pitchblende both within and outside of the A2 High Grade Domain marked by 60.5 m of total composite mineralization including 13.4 m of off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps). In addition, AR-16-96c3 intersected 80.0 m of total composite mineralization including 12.45 m of off-scale radioactivity also in the A2 shear.  A new zone of high grade mineralization has now been delineated outside the lower margin of the A2 High Grade Domain defined in the maiden Arrow Deposit 43-101 Inferred Mineral Resource estimate.
In the A3 shear, five holes have intersected strong mineralization in step outs as far as 70 m from the current resource domains.  HoleAR-16-101c2 intersected 47.0 m of composite mineralization including 6.2 m of off-scale radioactivity within the A3 shear.
