Uranium Exploration Update And Carbon Neutral Certification

GTI Energy Ltd (ASX: GTR) (GTI or Company) provides the following activities update.


  • Drilling permitting at the Lo Herma ISR uranium project is on track with BLM approval & bonds confirmed. Wyoming state approval expected mid-October
  • Lo Herma drilling anticipated to commence during November
  • Lo Herma current Inferred Mineral Resource is 5.71 Mlbs U3O8 at average grade 630ppm. GTI’s combined Wyoming Inferred Mineral Resources 7.37 Mlbs U3O8
  • Lo Herma is ~10miles from the US’s largest ISR U3O8 production plant at Cameco’s Smith Ranch-Hyland & ~60 miles from UEC’s Irigaray & Energy Fuels’ Reno Creek.
  • Processing of magnetic & VLF geophysical data has been completed for Lo Herma, Green Mountain & Loki West with radiometric data processing nearing completion
  • Carbon Neutral certification achieved under the Climate Active standard
  • GTI is the 1st ASX listed uranium company to achieve carbon neutral certification
LO HERMA DRILL PERMITTING

Drill permitting is on track for GTI’s Lo Herma ISR uranium project located in Wyoming’s Powder River Basin (Figure 1). US Federal Bureau of Land Management (BLM) approval has been received for drilling and drilling bonds have been confirmed for a 26-hole (circa 15,000 feet) mud rotary drill program. Drilling depth is expected to average 500 feet with a maximum depth of 1,500 feet. The drill program will include a number of both historical drill data verification and exploration holes along trend and at depth. Final Wyoming state approval for the drill program is expected by mid-October and the Company remains hopeful that drilling can commence during November.

TABLE 1: SUMMARY OF INFERRED MRE & EXPLORATION TARGETS (Refer ASX Release 05/07/2023)

The potential quantity and grade of the Exploration Targets is conceptual in nature and there has been insufficient exploration to estimate a JORC-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the estimation of a Mineral Resource in the defined exploration target areas.

AERIAL GEOPHYSICS - FINAL PROCESSING

Processing has been completed for the magnetic & very low frequency electromagnetic (VLF) data collected from the aerial surveys at the Lo Herma, Green Mountain and Loki West ISR uranium exploration projects. Radiometric data processing is underway and is nearing completion. The Company will provide results once the final data and the report are received.

The aerial geophysical survey was conducted using a twin-engine aircraft loaded with a suite of sensors that provide detailed radiometric, magnetic and VLF data, allowing for correlation between the three products to further refine the Company’s high-priority targets and potentially locate new targets for upcoming drill programs.

CLIMATE ACTIVE CARBON NEUTRAL CERTIFICATION

GTI is pleased to confirm that it has achieved carbon neutrality, across both its Australian head office and US field operations, through the Australian Government’s Climate Active Program. Climate Active is an ongoing partnership between the Australian Government and Australian businesses to drive voluntary climate action. Climate Active Carbon Neutral Certification is widely regarded as the most stringent and transparent carbon neutral standard in Australia and is based on the foundations of best practice and internationally recognised standards in carbon accounting and emissions reduction. Throughout the process of applying for Climate Active certification for Organisations, GTI undertook measures to quantify its carbon footprint, to monitor and reduce emissions going forward, and compensate for the remainder by investing in carbon offset projects to fully neutralise the carbon emissions produced by the organisation. GTI has taken these steps in line with its ESG strategy amid growing expectation that resource companies commit to actively reducing or offsetting emissions. The Company regards Climate Active Certification as an important step in an ongoing effort to meet stakeholder expectations with regards to management of the environments and surroundings in which GTI operates.

GTI Energy Executive Director Bruce Lane said. “GTI is focused on “clean mining, clean energy and a clean future”, so achieving carbon neutral certification is aligned to our objectives & values and is key to our ESG strategy. We believe strongly that nuclear power & uranium are critical to achieving an energy future with reduced carbon emissions. GTI has discovered uranium in Wyoming that is amenable to insitu recovery (ISR) mining. ISR is the cleanest and lowest impact form of uranium mining and through development of our projects we aim to contribute to the clean energy transition.”

Rigs Secured For Wyoming Uranium Drilling & Utah Fieldwork Completed

GTI Resources Ltd (GTI or Company) is pleased to advise that 2 mud rotary drill rigs have been secured for its planned drilling campaign at the Thor ISR uranium project in Wyoming’s Great Divide basin (Figure 1). As previously advised, GTI is on track to commence drilling during December. This maiden drill program is designed to confirm the grade and tenor of uranium mineralisation that was previously identified by Kerr McGee in the 1970’s & 80’s and to ultimately support definition of an economic uranium resource.

NexGen Commences Expanded 43,000 Meter Drill Program at Patterson Corridor East

NexGen Energy Ltd. ("NexGen" or the "Company") (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE) (ASX: NXG) is excited to announce the commencement of a 43,000 meter (m) exploration drill program to continue to test the extents and growth of mineralization discovered in early 2024 at Patterson Corridor East (PCE) located 3.5 km east of the world-class Arrow Deposit. This systematic program represents an increase of 9,000 m from the 2024 program and is expected to be one of the largest drill programs in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan in 2025. The initial results at PCE revealed vein-type uranium mineralization intersected within the competent basement rock, highly analogous to Arrow. Since discovery, the mineralized footprint at PCE has rapidly grown to 600 m along strike and 600 m of vertical extent ( see November 12, 2024 news release ).
