Company News

NexGen Energy Ltd. (TSXV:NXE) intersected substantial broad mineralization in all holes of the winter 2015 drilling program at the Rook I property in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Mineralization has an intensive off-scale radioactivity from >10,000 to 60,000 cps.

NexGen Energy Ltd. (TSXV:NXE) intersected substantial broad mineralization in all holes of the winter 2015 drilling program at the Rook I property in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Mineralization has an intensive off-scale radioactivity from >10,000 to 60,000 cps.

As quoted in the press release:

Highlights:

  • AR-15-34b intersected 129.0 m total composite mineralization including 10.3 m off-scale radioactivity (>10,000) within a 328.5 m section (400.0 to 728.5 m). This hole extends the known mineralization encountered in drill hole AR-14-30 by 30 m southwest along strike;
  • AR-15-36 intersected 130.0 m total composite mineralization including 2.15 m off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 cps) within a 275.5 m section (102.0 to 377.5 m);
  • AR-15-35 intersected 70.0 m total composite mineralization including 0.75 m off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 cps) within a 217.5 m section (355.0 to 572.5 m);
  • AR-15-33 intersected 33.0 m total composite mineralization including 0.45 m off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 cps) within a 119.5 m section (441.5 to 561 m).

A total of 2,613 m in four diamond drill holes (AR-15-33 to -36) has been completed thus far at the Arrow zone since the winter 2015 program began, and is reported herein. Drill hole details and spectrometer (handheld RS-120) results are summarized in Table 1.
