Koppies Mineralisation Extended by 10 km

Elevate Uranium Limited (“Elevate Uranium”, or the “Company”) (ASX:EL8) (OTC:ELVUF) is pleased to announce the discovery of a uranium mineralised zone extending continuously over a further 10 kilometres to the northeast of the Koppies 2 resource. On 4 May 2022, in an ASX release titled “22% Increase in Mineral Resources”, the Company announced the initial JORC (2012) Inferred Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) of 20.3 million pounds (“Mlb”) eU3O8 at its Koppies Uranium Project in Namibia (See Page 8). The announcement also identified the potential to expand the mineralisation of Koppies beneath, adjacent and to the northeast.

Highlights:

  • Uranium mineralisation identified, extending the anomaly another 10 km to the northeast of Koppies.
  • Mineralisation is up to 1,000 metres wide.
  • Mineralisation is generally less than 10 metres below surface.
  • Potential to add significantly to existing 20 Mlb U3O8 mineral resource at Koppies.
Subsequent to identifying the potential for mineralisation to the northeast, a field trip was undertaken in July 2022 to ground truth the regional trend northeast of Koppies 2 within the radiometric anomaly identified from the airborne survey completed in 2008. This area is now referred to as Koppies 3 (see Figure 2). Following that field trip, it was decided to drill five lines progressively along the radiometric anomaly, with the fifth drill line 10 kilometres northeast of Koppies 2. All five drill lines intersected uranium mineralisation greater than 100 ppm eU3O8.

Figure 1 highlights the mineralisation identified to date at Koppies 3 and the drilling completed on Koppies 3 Extension to the northeast of Koppies.

Elevate Uranium’s Managing Director, Murray Hill, commented:

“The potential of Koppies continues to improve with each drill line. We currently have a mineral resource of 20.3 million pounds of uranium at Koppies and we have identified that uranium mineralisation extends for another 10 kilometres to the northeast of the Koppies 1 and 2 resources. As is the case at Koppies 1 and 2, the uranium mineralisation is shallow and generally less than 10 metres below the surface.

This discovery has the potential to substantially expand the Koppies uranium resource. A second drill rig has been mobilised to Koppies to accelerate the drill program.”

Renforth’s Parbec Surface Program Concluded, Succesfully Intersects Mineralized Lenses

Renforth Resources (CSE:RFR) (OTC:RFHRF) (“Renforth” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that field exploration at Parbec for May/June 2019 has concluded with the successful intersection of, amongst other positive developments, quartz veins on surface as projected from drillholes intersecting gold south of the Cadillac Break associated with a diorite splay, previously disclosed drill results which were projected to surface as seen below included 5.55 g/t Au over 0.5m in Renforth’s PAR-18-86 and in the earlier PAR-08-03 drilled by Globex 2.35 g/t Au over 3.3m.

This program has demonstrated that Parbec, has significant structural complexity, known in some areas to be associated with gold, in other newly exposed areas assays are pending. The program targeted 4 areas of interest, namely (1) the “Diorite Nose” in the NW, where the Diorite Splay and Cadillac Break interact and prior trenching discovered gold, an area (2) south of this, over the Pontiac Sediments and Diorite Splays, an area where prior drill holes intersected gold at depth, (3) the examination of known outcrop in an undrilled area of the Cadillac Break and (4) target gold bearing 2018 grab samples in an undrilled area near the ramp face.

NexGen Announces Best Hole to Date and High-Grade Expansion at Patterson Corridor East Concluding a Successful 2024 Drilling Program

  • NexGen's 2024 exploration campaign delivered a new discovery on Rook I at Patterson Corridor East ("PCE") 3.5km east of Arrow.
  • Subsequent drilling has materially expanded the mineralized zone to 600 m strike length and 600 m vertical extent with 19 of 30 holes intersecting mineralization including 10 holes with multiple intervals >10,000 cps.
  • Today's announcement highlights the best hole to date at PCE (RK-24-222) returns 17.0 m wide vein with multiple high intensity (>61,000 cps) occurrences.
  • In 2024, PCE is the largest drill program in the Athabasca Basin by any Company at 34,000 meters (m).

NexGen Energy Ltd. ("NexGen" or the "Company") (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE) (ASX: NXG) is proud to announce the completion of its 2024 drilling campaign at Patterson Corridor East (PCE) that included more than 34,000 m across a total of 46 drillholes. Upon initial discovery of intense uranium mineralization at PCE ( see March 11 News Release ), the Company directed all drilling activity to focus exclusively on PCE, whereby 19 of 30 holes intersected mineralization. Bold and systematic spacing of drillhole intercepts have quickly grown the discovery from a single hole to a broad and continuous new uranium discovery. Real-time evaluation of results throughout the duration of the program focused on determining the overall outer extents of the mineralized zone and in parallel, precisely targeting high-grade sub-domains (Figures 1 and 2, Table 1).
