Athabasca  Uranium is greatly encouraged by Denison Mines’ news release  (dated July 23 2013) regarding their Phoenix A deposit announcing "Denison  Intersects 43.2% U3O8 Over 10.3 Metres at Wheeler River".  Not just  because the grades are spectacular, or for its proximity to our current  exploration projects at Keefe and McGregor Lakes, but because every new  discovery in the Basin reinforces the Canadian Nuclear Association’s  estimate of the vast amount of uranium yet to be discovered: 
 
 “The enormous bounty of uranium buried in the Athabasca  Basin is almost beyond reckoning and can provide substantial wealth to the  province of Saskatchewan and Canada for decades to come. It is estimated  that the energy contained in these deposits is equivalent to 17 billion  barrels of oil or …… about $2.2 trillion.”
