 Nexgen Energy (TSXV:NXE) reports it has received assay results from 16 remaining drill holes from its summer drill program on the Arrow zone. Highlights include hole AR-14-32 which saw 2.34 percent U3O8 over 26.5 meters and 1.05 percent U3O8 over 20.5 meters.

According to the press release, highlights include:

Vertical hole

  • AR-14-32 assays 2.34% U3O8 over 26.5 m (592.5 to 619.0 m), and 1.05% U3O8 over 20.5 m (654.5 to 675.0 m);

Angled holes

  • AR-14-28 assays 0.41% U3O8 over 83.0 m (190.0 to 273.0 m);
  • AR-14-27 assays 0.45% U3O8 over 74.65 m (255.70 to 330.35 m);

The Arrow Zone is currently 515 meters x 215 meters with the vertical extent of mineralization
commencing from 100 meters down to 730 meters. It remains open in all directions and at
depth.

Garrett Ainsworth, Vice-President of exploration and development, said:

These reported uranium assays conclude our successful summer 2014 drill program, and have revealed wide intervals of moderate grades that encapsulate sub-vertical high grade uranium mineralization. The break in drilling has facilitated substantial data interpretation and we are ready and eager to begin our winter 2015 drill program.
