Refined Energy Expands Dufferin Project in Athabasca Basin
Refined Energy Corp. (CSE: RUU; OTC: RFMCF; FRA: CWA0) has made significant strides in expanding its Dufferin Project in the Athabasca Basin. Recently, the company announced it acquired an additional 529 hectares for the Dufferin West property, along with 1,470 hectares for the Dufferin North property. With these acquisitions, the total area of the Dufferin Project now spans an impressive 14,800 hectares.
Prospective Uranium Property
The Dufferin Project is strategically located in a region famed for its high-value uranium deposits. Specifically, the two main properties—Dufferin North and Dufferin West—are situated about 18 km from Cameco’s Centennial Deposit, which has demonstrated significant mineral potential. Historical data shows drill holes like VR-031W3 intersecting high-grade uranium, underscoring the project’s prospects for mineralization.
In the context of ongoing data reviews and analysis, both Refined Energy and its partner, Eagle Plains Resources Ltd., have recognized the region's potential for further exploration. The mineralization primarily occurs near NE-SW trending faults, making targeted exploration a key focus for the companies involved.

He emphasized the intent to launch exploration programs aimed at investigating high-grade uranium deposits, which are characteristic of this area known for its rich mining history. A detailed drill program is in preparation for the first quarter of 2026, with further announcements expected shortly.
