Marvel Defines Drill Targets at DD Zone - Walker and KLR Uranium Project Adjacent to Cameco, Athabasca Basin

Marvel Defines Drill Targets at DD Zone - Walker and KLR Uranium Project Adjacent to Cameco, Athabasca Basin

Marvel Discovery Corp. (TSX-V:MARV), (Frankfurt:O4T), (OTCQB:MARVF); ("Marvel" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that after compilation and interpretation of all existing data plus the results of the recently completed the airborne fixed wing magnetic survey, the Company will focus on the DD Zone for upcoming exploration efforts. The DD Zone represents an area of high merit and potential for success within the KLR and Walker Uranium Project ("the Property") in the Athabasca Basin. The study and recommendation for the DD Zone was completed by Exploration Facilitation Unlimited ("EFU

Highlights of the study prompting Marvel to focus on the DD Zone include:

  1. Drilling during the 1970's intersected U values of 0.125%
  2. Backpack drilling by EFU in 2015 discovered the Highway Zone, intersecting 1.96% U over 29cm. Other highlights include 1.57% U over 4 cm 0.279% U over 44cm, 0.20% U over 60cm, 0.175% U over 41cm, and 0.124% U over 24cm. The Highway Zone Discovery appears structurally related and an extension of the DD Zone.
  3. A distinct correlation with high U values and strong magnetic gradients. (Figure 2)
  4. VTEM conductors proximal to the higher U values but overburden covered have not been investigated or drilled.
  5. The Property is located within the Wollaston-Mudjactic Transition Zone ("WMTZ") of the eastern Athabasca Basin. The WMTZ hosts the highest-grade uranium mines in the world (Figure 1).
  6. The DD Zone further straddles the Key Lake Shear Zone, an important fault for structurally controlled Athabasca Basin type uranium deposits.

Commentary

"The DD Zone represents tremendous upside potential; the project is perfectly situated next to one of the largest Uranium resources in the world being Cameco that has produced some of the highest-grade Uranium. The Walker and KLR claims cover over 14,000 hectares along the Key Lake fault which is home to Canada's largest Uranium reserves. After careful study, compilation, and interpretation, we have narrowed our focus to a manageable area where precision IP has helped define a number of high priority drill targets. All the pieces of the puzzle are falling into place, and we look forward to initiating ground exploration with the anticipation of our inaugural drilling program later in the year." stated Karim Rayani President & Chief Executive Officer, Director.

The DD Zone

The DD Zone is proximal and along strike to Fission 3.0 Hobo Lake uranium properties. Hosted within WMTZ, the DD Zone lies along the Key Lake Shear Zone and hosts 10 uranium showings and multiple unexplored EM targets (Figure 2).

Like its neighbour to the west, the Arrow Deposit, owned by NexGen Energy lies along a similar structural corridor as the Marvel properties. The Arrow Deposit1, which has undergone a Positive Feasibility Study with robust economics contains Probable Reserves of 239.6 million lbs of U3O8 at an average of 2.37% U3O8 and Measured and Indicated Resources of 256.7 million lbs at an average grade of 3.1% U3O8. The Arrow Deposit is the largest undeveloped uranium deposit in Canada.
