Baselode Receives Drill Permits and Completes Field Work on its Catharsis Uranium Project

 
 

Baselode Energy Corp. (TSXV: FIND) (OTCQB: BSENF) (" Baselode " or the " Company ") is pleased to announce:

 
  1. Diamond drilling permits for its Catharsis uranium project (" Catharsis ") have been received from Saskatchewan's Ministry of Environment,
  2.  
  3. Ground geological mapping and prospecting program on Catharsis has been completed,
  4.  
  5. Baselode has the consent and support of the Kineepik Métis from Pinehouse, Saskatchewan , for its work on Catharsis and remains engaged in good faith discussions with other Indigenous communities and northern stakeholders to ensure a full engagement process. Baselode is committed to mutually beneficial working relationships with Indigenous communities while mitigating any exploration impacts on traditional Indigenous lands and Rights.
  6.  

"We're excited to be approaching the drill stage on Catharsis.  Our recent fieldwork identified favourable geology, including quartzite outcrops and Athabasca sandstone boulders.  The quartzites are important because they present a structural setting similar to the highest-grade uranium deposits in the world. The Athabasca sandstone boulders are important as they appear locally sourced, suggesting Athabasca sandstone covered the Catharsis project billions of years ago. This would provide the chemical conditions to develop high-grade Athabasca uranium deposits.  We are also anticipating completing the VTEM TM Plus survey over Catharsis over the next two weeks to better visualize the primary structures.  Once we have all of this information combined, we'll be able to generate quality targets in preparation for the drill program," said James Sykes , CEO and President of Baselode.

 

  Planned Drill Program
A 2,500 metre drill program is planned for Catharsis.  Baselode is anticipating a total of 10 to 15 drill holes, each drill hole ranging from 150 to 250 m drill hole depth.  Key target areas will be generated from a combination of geological and geophysical interpretations.  The drill program is planned with helicopter support to achieve broader target area coverage and to lessen any environmental impact within the project area.  The drill and helicopter contractors, accommodations, and support staff have been organized and are ready to begin the drill program in the coming months.

 

  About Baselode Energy Corp.
Baselode currently controls 100% of approximately 171,000 hectares for exploration in the Athabasca Basin area, northern Saskatchewan, Canada . The land package is free of any option agreements or underlying royalties.

 

Baselode's Athabasca 2.0 exploration thesis is focused on discovering near-surface, basement-hosted, high-grade uranium orebodies outside of the Athabasca Basin. The exploration thesis is further complemented by the Company's preferred use of innovative and well-understood geophysical methods to map deep structural controls to identify shallow targets for diamond-drilling.

Terra Clean Energy Ramps Up Summer Drilling Plans, Eyes Resource Update

Terra Clean Energy (CSE:TCEC,OTCQB:TCEFF,FWB:C9O0) President and CEO Greg Cameron outlines the company's upcoming summer drill program at the South Falcon East uranium project, building on strong results from a winter campaign at the Fraser Lakes B deposit.

“The plan is to get up to 2,500 meters back into this new area of interest. Hopefully drill into what we're defining as an unconformity basement-hosted uranium deposit with significantly higher grade than we currently have,” he said.

“We would have the ability to update that resource report in some fashion, maybe early 2026 or mid-2026, so those are the two key catalysts. But it's all about drilling and adding pounds to the current resource and, more importantly, significantly enhancing that grade which we think we have," Cameron added.

Top 3 ASX Uranium Stocks of 2025

Uranium broke out in 2024, with the spot price rising to a 17 year high of US$106 per pound early in the year. Despite a pullback to about US$78, uranium is still more than 40 percent higher than it was two years ago.

Although the market is dealing with ample supply and uncertain demand in 2025, experts are predicting a bright future as countries around the world pursue energy security goals.

Against that backdrop, ASX-listed uranium companies have been making moves in 2025.

15 Uranium Companies Exploring Canada's Athabasca Basin

Uranium market watchers know that Canada’s Athabasca Basin is among the world’s richest uranium jurisdictions and hosts several of the highest-grade uranium deposits on the planet.

Spanning close to 100,000 square kilometers of the Canadian Shield of Northern Saskatchewan and Alberta, the Athabasca Basin is a major contributor to Canada’s status as the second largest uranium producer and the third largest country by uranium reserves.

Unsurprisingly, the region is home to the world’s largest uranium mine, Cigar Lake. The mine reports average grades of 14.69 percent U3O8 and accounts for 14 percent of global uranium production.
