NexGen Energy (“NexGen” or the “Company”) (TSX:NXE, NYSE:NXE) is pleased to report radioactivity results for the final sixteen holes of the winter 2017 drilling program at our 100% owned, Rook I property, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.
Significant off-scale radioactivity continues to be encountered in the gap area near the southwest margin of the Arrow Deposit. The Southwest Gap represents a material resource expansion opportunity as it was not included in the March 2017 updated mineral resource estimate.
Garrett Ainsworth, Vice-President, Exploration and Development, commented:
“Drilling in the southwest and northwest gaps of the Arrow Deposit has been highly successful by returning both broad intervals of mineralization incorporating high grade zones.
The southwest and northeast gaps will be targeted in the summer 2017 program to ensure that mineralization in these zones are optimally incorporated into future Arrow resource grade shells.”
