Prospecting work on the historic Wolfe and Jackfish boulder fields at Isle Brochet has identified 45 new occurrences of radioactive boulders with assay values up to 8.23% U3O8, eclipsing historic peaks of 3.54% U3O8.  Multiple complimentary surveys, including glacial directional flow determination, marine acoustic seismic, and lake bottom spectrometer, have pointed to a likely transport direction for the boulder field and identified markers for the potential source. The location of these markers represents a clear area of interest for drill testing.\n\n \n \n\n \nNews Highlights\nStrong Mineralization with important geological characteristics: Boulder field sampling returned assays from sandstone and basal conglomerates up to 8.23% U3O8 and likely represent rocks at or near the sandstone / basement unconformity. They are interpreted to be sourced near the Basin margin. Potential Source Location Identified: Marine acoustic seismic survey has identified potential source location to the NE of the boulder fields. Priority Drill Target Area: Marine acoustic survey completed up-ice direction from the boulder fields has identified bedrock geological structural features, which may play a role in controlling the occurrence of uranium mineralization. This is a now a priority area for drill testing. Key Technical Details\nHigh-Grade Boulder Field: Prospecting work on the historic Wolfe and Jackfish boulder fields...
