ESO Uranium Corp. (CVE:ESO) and its JV partner Fission Energy Ltd (CVE:FIS) report that recent field work on their Patterson Lake south property, Athabasca Basin, has resulted in the discovery of a significant 4 km long uranium boulder train.
The press release is quoted as saying:
The ongoing field program, which includes a radon survey, soil sampling, and boulder prospecting, will prioritize locating and tracing the source and extent of the boulders. Investigation of uranium boulder trains has led to the discovery of several major uranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin, including some of those of the nearby former producing Cluff Lake Mine (>60 million lbs produced).
ESO Uranium’s Project Manager,Garrett Ainsworth says:
“The convergence of the airborne survey and the exciting field discovery we have made here has mapped the value of an exploration program based on good science and flexible thinking when considering models and targets. Based on all data gathered to date we strongly feel that there is high potential for a relatively shallow, high grade uranium target.”
