Odessa Minerals
Overview
Odessa Minerals (ASX:ODE) is an ASX-listed junior mining and exploration company focusing on uranium exploration in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia via its three projects— Lyndon Project, Relief Well and Gascoyne East.
Odessa Mineral’s pivot towards uranium and away from lithium is a smart move, especially in the current environment of high uranium prices. Uranium prices have soared to their highest point since 2008, surpassing US$100 per pound. This upward trend is expected to continue due to the ongoing supply and demand imbalance for uranium. With its portfolio of uranium projects, Odessa is strategically positioned to capitalize on these robust market fundamentals.
Odessa Minerals’ projects in the Gascoyne Region of Western Australia totalling >3,000km2
The company’s flagship Lyndon project is immediately adjacent to Paladin Energy’s 15.6 million pounds (Mlbs) U3O8 Carley Bore uranium project. The Lyndon Project has identified highly significant uranium intersections with some rock chip sample assay results showing exceptional grades up to 6,612 parts per millions (ppm) U3O8 at the Baltic Bore and Jailor Bore prospects. Odessa plans to begin drilling at the target areas in 2024.
The other two projects—Relief Well and Gascoyne East—have shown significant potential for uranium. An extensive palaeochannel stretching over 8 kilometers has been verified at Relief Well, offering the potential for uranium mineralization in a roll-front style. Odessa is planning a drilling program to test roll-front uranium mineralization at Relief Well.
The Gascoyne East project is one of the most under-explored areas in the Gascoyne Province. The company has identified multiple gold, copper and uranium targets for the project, and drilling has been planned for 2024.
The company is in the early stages of its operations, making it attractive for investors looking to get exposure to uranium assets in a tier-1 mining region like Gascoyne. The high insider holding, at nearly 28 percent, is an encouraging sign for investors as it aligns management’s interests with those of the shareholders.
Company Highlights
- Odessa Minerals is an ASX-listed, uranium exploration company with a large holding covering over 3,000 sq. km. in the Gascoyne region of Western Australia. The company has three key projects in the area – Lyndon, Relief Well, Gascoyne East.
- The company focuses on advancing uranium prospects at its flagship project, Lyndon. Lyndon is adjacent to Paladin Energy’s Carley Bore uranium project, which has a resource base of 15.6 Mlbs U3O8.

- The Gascoyne East project has extensive gold, copper and uranium targets that were identified during the recent airborne survey. The company is planning air-core and RC drilling for the project in 2024.
- The Company’s senior leadership team is well-experienced in the mining sector and has significant ownership in the company at nearly 28 percent. This is an encouraging sign for investors as it aligns the management’s interest with that of the shareholders.
Key Projects
Lyndon Project
The Lyndon project tenements total 1,000km2 of highly prospective ground for REE/lithium exploration. The project has also shown signs of significant uranium potential, making the company pivot towards it and aligning its priorities to uranium exploration. The initial fieldwork on the project has yielded impressive results.
Jailor Bore, Baltic Bore and Ben Hur prospects showed significant calcrete-hosted uranium mineralization at the surface. The findings at the Balti Bore and Jailor Bore included 12 rock chips with assays revealing over 1,000 ppm U3O8 and five rock chips with assays showing more than 1,000 ppm V2O5 (vanadium oxide).

Baltic Bore prospect: The Baltic Bore prospect area features several radiometric anomalies linked to calcrete terraces, extending over a strike length of 2.6 km. Baltic yielded a noteworthy 6,612 ppm U3O8 while also uncovering 2,132 ppm V2O5 in sample XT0970. An additional eight samples show rock chip assays exceeding 1,000 ppm U3O8. Historically, little attention has been paid to the Baltic Bore prospects compared to Jailor Bore. However, the assay results at Baltic Bore indicate significant potential for high-grade uranium discovery.
Jailor Bore target: Jailor Bore encompasses more than 2 km of uranium radiometric anomalies along its strike length. Surface mineralization has been observed at this target, with four rock chip assays exceeding 1,000 ppm U3O8, with a maximum of 4,489 ppm U3O8. Additionally, high vanadium levels were found to be associated with uranium mineralization, with rock chip XT0929 showing up to 1,541 ppm V2O5.
Ben Hur, Giant and Red Hill Uranium Targets: The Ben Hur, Giant and Red Hill prospects exhibit calcrete-type uranium mineralization similar to that found at the Baltic Bore and Jailor Bore. Historical exploration reported intersections up to 2 meters @ 411 ppm U3O8 from 4 meters.
Relief Well Project
VTEM survey data has confirmed the presence of a palaeochannel at the Relief Well prospect with a strike length of greater than 8 km that remains open to the south. The palaeochannel-hosted uranium mineralization at the Relief Well prospect is typically amenable to low-cost in-situ leach recovery. Relief Well is situated directly along the strike and serves as an upstream extension of the paleochannel that hosts Paladin Energy’s Carley Bore, which contains a 15.6 Mlbs U3O8 resource. The company will now move forward with drill planning and will seek approvals to conduct drilling at the Relief Well prospect.
Gascoyne East Project
The Gascoyne East Project tenements cover 2,108 sq. km. of exploration licenses. The Gascoyne East project is one of the most under-explored areas of the Gascoyne Province. The company has identified multiple gold, copper and uranium targets for the project, and is planning a two-phase air-core drilling program. Phase 1 air core drilling with hole spacings ranging from 200 meters to 400 meters aims to update the basement geology model and rank targets for the follow-up Phase 2 drill program, which will test for mineralization at depth. Phase 1 drilling is expected to commence in Q3 2024.

High-Grade Uranium Interval of 1963ppm at Likuyu North at the Mkuju Uranium Project; Commencement of Initial ISR Work
- Drill-hole LNDD020 drilled at the Likuyu North deposit, part of the Mkuju Project, returns 6 mineralised intervals including 7.1 metres averaging 1,963ppm eU3O81, from 63.1 metres depth. This hole was drilled central to the deposit to provide core for an assessment of In Situ Recovery (ISR) of the uranium.
- ISR is the preferred method for mining uranium deposits. ERM Australia Consultants Pty Ltd (ERM) are undertaking an initial ISR assessment for Likuyu North.
- Drill-hole LNDD015 down-dip of the deposit has a ~5m mineralised interval; samples have been dispatched to the lab. This interval is 100m south of the current Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE).
- The 2022 JORC compliant MRE for Likuyu North (4.6 Mlbs U3O8) was based on a pit- shell assuming conventional open-pit mining methods; adoption of ISR may support expansion of it.
Commenting on the drill results, Gladiator’s Chairman Greg Johnson said:
“Drillhole LNDD020 demonstrates the quality of the Likuyu North deposit, and we are excited by the potential opportunity the area provides. Grade and other characteristics appear to be well-suited to ISR. With that in mind, Gladiator has appointed ERM (formerly CSA Global) to help advance this strategy, and if the ISR study is encouraging the Company will consider larger-scale exploration at Likuyu North, Likuyu South and at the Mtonya deposit area, with an aim of maximizing the resource available for a potential ISR operation”.
Drillhole LNDD020
This hole was drilled to provide fresh drill-core to assist with initial assessment of the potential of ISR as a mining method for the Likuyu North deposit. The deposit has a JORC compliant Mineral Resource Estimate of 4.6Mlbs U3O8 with an average grade of 267ppm U3O8. The hole was positioned in an area relatively central to the deposit known to have thick and high-grade mineralisation, hosted by medium to coarse grained sandstone beds. Figure 1 is a cross-section and shows LNDD020. The hole contains 6 mineralised intervals (Table 2) including:
- 2.5 metres with an average grade of 438 ppm eU3O8 from 17.1m depth.
- 7.1 metres with an average grade of 1,963 ppm eU3O8 from 63.1m depth.

Forum Energy Metals
Investor Insight
Actively exploring the highly prospective Aberdeen uranium property in Nunavut’s Thelon Basin, Forum Energy’s highly experienced technical team led by former Cameco geologist Dr. Rebecca Hunter is poised to build on its significant Tatiggaq discovery amid a continuing uranium bull market.
Overview
Forum Energy Metals (TSXV:FMC,OTCQB:FDCFF) is an established uranium explorer searching for high-grade deposits in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin and Nunavut’s Thelon Basin. In 2024, the company is primarily focused on exploring the Aberdeen project in Nunavut, where successful drilling confirmed and expanded high-grade uranium mineralization over significant widths at the Tatiggaq discovery. Nunavut’s underexplored Thelon Basin may be the most prospective region for discovering new, high-grade uranium deposits outside Saskatchewan.
With a strong local and regional presence in Saskatchewan, Forum took advantage of weak metals markets to broaden its commodity exposure by adding a diverse portfolio of energy metals exploration projects in the copper, cobalt and nickel space.
Company Highlights
Saskatchewan (Athabasca Basin) and Nunavut (Thelon Basin) Uranium Projects
- Aberdeen Uranium Project (Thelon Basin-Nunavut): Athabasca Basin 2.0? - The Thelon Basin may be the most prospective region in the world for discovering new high- grade uranium deposits outside Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin. Both basins exhibit similar geological characteristics.
Forum’s 2023 Aberdeen Maiden Drill Program Intersects High-grade Uranium
- Between July and August 2023, Forum completed five drill holes totalling 991 meters. The program successfully expanded shallow high-grade uranium mineralization at the primary Tatiggaq Main and West Zones, and confirmed the team’s understanding of the controls of mineralization. Hole TAT23-002 intersected 2.25 percent U3O8 over 11.1 meters at a depth of 148.5 meters in the Main Zone and Hole TAT23-003, a 200-meter step-out to the southwest of the West Zone intersected 0.40 percent U3O8 over 12.8 meters at a depth of 136.8 meters.
Forum’s 2024 Aberdeen 7,000 Meter Drill Program Underway
- Follow-up drilling in 2024 has continued to intersect uranium mineralization at the Main and West deposits along the Tatiggaq Fault. As of August 2024, 17 holes totalling 4,307 meters (within the 1.5 km by 0.7 km Tatiggaq anomaly have been completed. A total 685 samples have been shipped to SRC Laboratories in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan for analysis. Results are expected by the end of September 2024. Drilling planned to test 20 other high priority targets on the property.
- Wollaston Uranium: Forum: 100 percent – Located in eastern Athabasca Basin. Limited drilling in 2023 identified elevated uranium and boron values on several geophysical targets on this large property, well located close to the Orano/Denison McClean Lake mill. Forum is reviewing data from its magnetic/electromagnetic survey to plan the next exploration steps.
- Highrock Uranium: Forum: 80 percent, Sassy Gold 20 percent – On trend with Cameco’s past-producing Key Lake Mine.
- Fir Island: Forum: 49 percent, Orano Canada: 51 percent (operator) – Located on the northeastern edge of the Athabasca Basin. Forum is awaiting further exploration plans following Orano’s data review from an extensive resistivity survey.
- Northwest Athabasca Joint Venture (NWA): Forum: 43.3 percent, NexGen: 26.3 percent, Cameco: 18.7 percent, Orano:11.7 percent – Winter 2025 drilling is planned with funding by Global Uranium. The NWA project hosts the historical 1.5-million-lb Maurice Bay deposit grading 0.6 percent uranium oxide to a depth of 50 meters (Not NI 43-101 compliant. Sufficient exploration work has not been completed to verify and classify as a current mineral resource, but the estimate is considered relevant and reliable due to extensive exploration work completed by previous operators and sourced from Saskatchewan Industry & Resources Miscellaneous Reports 2003-07).
- Maurice Point: Forum: 100 percent
- Grease River: Forum: 100 percent (Traction Uranium earn-in option) – Forum and Traction recently completed airborne magnetic, electromagnetic (EM) and radiometric surveys over the entire project area to aid structural mapping and help define drill targets. Analysis of the EM data has outlined prospective targets along several conductive trends in the East claim block north of the Grease River shear zone.
- Henday: UEC: 60 percent, Forum: 40 percent – Strategically located along the Midwest/Roughrider trend near UEC’s Roughrider uranium deposit
- Costigan: Forum: 100 percent – On trend with Cameco’s past-producing Key Lake mine.
- Clearwater: Forum: 75 percent, Vanadian: 25 percent – Located in the Patterson Lake Corridor, Western Athabasca Basin
Key Projects
Aberdeen Project (Thelon Basin, Nunavut)
Nunavut Uranium: Forum’s Aberdeen project claims comprise ground formerly held by Cameco with discoveries made at Tatiggaq, Qavvik and Ayra. The claims surround Orano’s Kiggavik uranium deposit.
Previously explored by Cameco between 2005 and 2012, this ground hosts two uranium discoveries made by former Cameco geologist Dr. Rebecca Hunter, who now leads Forum’s team as VP of exploration.
Cameco abandoned the claims due to the decade-long period of low uranium prices during the post-Fukushima period, which were later acquired by Forum. Renamed the Aberdeen project, Forum’s claims surround Orano Canada-Denison-UEC’s 133-million-lb Kiggavik uranium deposit.

Cameco completed 36,000 meters of drilling in 135 drill holes. After reviewing Cameco’s data, Forum’s technical team determined the Tatiggaq deposit to be the primary exploration target. Tatiggaq is found within a large gravity anomaly that remains open along strike for 1.5 kilometers and at depth. Previous drilling by Cameco identified results as high as 2.69 percent U3O8 over 7.9 meters, including 24.8 percent U3O8 over 0.4 meters at a depth of approximately 200 meters.
Examining drill core in the field at the Nunavut camp, August 2023
Forum’s maiden drill program, completed in August 2023, successfully confirmed and expanded high-grade uranium mineralization at the Tatiggaq and West Zones. At Tatiggaq, drilling intersected high-grade near-surface uranium mineralization with TAT23-002 (Main Zone) intersecting 2.25 percent U3O8 over 11.1 meters, while TAT23-003 a 200-meter step-out at the West Zone) intersected 0.40 percent U3O8 over 12.8 meters.
Further drilling in 2024 has continued to intersect uranium mineralization at the Main and West deposits along the Tatiggaq Fault. As of August 2024, 17 holes have been completed, totalling 4,307 meters along the Tatiggaq Fault within the 1.5 km by 0.7 km Tatiggaq anomaly. A total of 685 samples have been shipped to SRC Laboratories in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan for analysis. Results are expected by the end of September 2024.
Wollaston Uranium Project
The property is located within 10 kilometers of Cameco’s Rabbit Lake uranium mill and 30 kilometers of Orano/Denison’s McClean Lake uranium mill. Its successful winter 2022 drilling program discovered anomalous uranium in all four holes at the Gizmo target. Forum recently received results of an airborne electromagnetic (EM) and magnetic survey to augment structural interpretations and precisely locate the EM conductors. The following maps show these results and identify new target areas for diamond drilling.
New Gravity Trends and Future Target Areas
