ATHA Energy Completes Successful Exploration Program
HIGHLIGHTS:
- The Angilak Project is renowned for housing the Lac 50 Uranium Deposit, one of the largest high-grade deposits, which boasts a significant historical resource estimate. Recent drilling efforts have uncovered impressive uranium grades.
- The 2024 Exploration Program successfully executed twenty-five diamond drill holes, achieving all objectives while staying within budget.
- New parallel mineralized trends have been discovered, specifically Lac 48, Lac 52, and Lac 54, each offering exciting opportunities for further exploration.
- Active exploration has confirmed that both the Lac 50 and the newly identified trends continue to hold promise for additional mineralization.
- Regional Exploration Success: Thirteen holes were drilled at regional targets, all resulting in the discovery of new uranium lenses or the expansion of previously known zones.
Expansion of Mineralization at Lac 50
The exploration activities at Angilak are focused on expanding the well-researched Lac 50 Uranium Deposit. A total of twelve holes were drilled to target extensions beyond existing models, leading to significant discoveries and the confirmation of new geological layers.
Details on the Lac 50 Exploration
Drilling in the Jay4/Ray Zones has confirmed extended mineralization, indicating substantial deposits beyond previously established boundaries, thereby increasing the prospective strike length to around 1.8 km.
Significant Findings by New Trends
This year's program included eight holes drilled in the Lac 52 Trend, which revealed high-grade intersections, including remarkable readings of up to 30,273.4 counts per second, underscoring the area's wealth in uranium resources.
Future Exploration Directions
Looking ahead, upcoming phases will involve additional geophysical and ground geochemical studies aimed at deepening the understanding of the mineralization settings and guiding future drilling initiatives.
Company's Commitment
Troy Boisjoli, the CEO, expressed excitement about the exploration results, highlighting the project's potential to significantly enhance the uranium supply in response to evolving market demands. Additionally, Cliff Revering, VP of Exploration, praised the technical team's commitment to discovering new uranium resources.
