NexGen Energy (TSX:NXE) has reported radioactivity results from 38 holes from the summer drilling program on its 100 percent owned Rook I property in the Athabasca Basin.
As quoted in the press release:
At Arrow, strong mineralization continues to be drilled outside of the A2 High Grade Domain. Drill hole AR-16-112c2 intersected 39.0 m of total composite mineralization including 9.1 m of off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 cps with handheld RS-120 scintillometer) drilled below the grade shell of the A2 High Grade Domain. Drill hole AR-16-111c2 featured 5.0 m of minimum-greater-than-61,000 cps radioactivity also outside of the A2 High Grade Domain. Additionally, drill hole AR-16-104c2 intersected 38.5 m of total composite mineralization including 5.05 m of off-scale radioactivity in the A2 shear with the strongest mineralization drilled 32 m below the A2 High Grade Domain.
With respect to infill drilling, the A2 shear continues to exceed expectations where scissor holes AR-16-106c1 and AR-16-111c1 intersected 63.0 m of total composite mineralization including 12.1 m of off-scale radioactivity and 49.5 m of total composite mineralization including 10.85 m of off-scale radioactivity, respectively. Significant mineralization in the A2 shear was also intersected in drill holesAR-16-104c3, -105c2, -106c2, -108c3, -108c4, -109c1, -109c3, -110c1 and -110c2.
