Denison issued 5,926,000 Flow-Through Shares at a price of $1.35 per Flow-Through Share, for total gross proceeds of approximately $8 million (the "Offering").  Cantor Fitzgerald Canada Corporation and Haywood Securities Inc. acted as co-lead underwriters and joint bookrunners for the Offering.

 

  David Cates , President and CEO of Denison, commented,   "Our 2020 exploration program at Wheeler River resulted in the discovery of new high-grade uranium mineralization along the K-West conductive trend, and returned the best mineralized drill hole completed to date at Zone C of the Phoenix deposit.  Both results point to the value of continued exploration in proximity to Phoenix – with the potential for the discovery and delineation of an ISR amenable uranium deposit that could become a satellite operation for the Company's planned ISR processing plant at Wheeler River."   

 

The Company has agreed to use the gross proceeds from the sale of the Flow-Through Shares for "Canadian exploration expenses" (within the meaning of the Income Tax Act ( Canada )), related to the Company's Canadian uranium mining exploration projects in Saskatchewan . The Company has also agreed to renounce such Canadian exploration expenses with an effective date of no later than December 31, 2021 .

 

The Flow-Through Shares issued in connection with the Offering are subject to a statutory hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities legislation.

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.

15 Uranium Companies Exploring Canada's Athabasca Basin

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.
