Two of the three holes intersected significant radioactivity; PLN22-040 along strike from the discovery hole, and PLN22-041 up-dip from PLN22-038 (see Press Releases Nov 21, 2022, and Nov 30, 2022). This completes the PLN fall drill program on the Company's 100% owned Patterson Lake North \"PLN\" project in the southwest Athabasca Basin region of Saskatchewan, Canada. Drilling at A1 is scheduled to restart in early January and a large drill program is being planned.Drilling Highlights from follow up holes PLN22-039, PLN22-040 and PLN22-041:PLN22-040 was a 23 m step out targeting along strike and grid south from discovery hole PLN22-035 and intersected the radioactive structure over 11.5 m between 260.0 m and 278.0 m.8.5 m total composite mineralization >300 cps (between 260.0 m to 268.5 m), including2.5 m of total composite mineralization >10,000 cps over a 3.0 m interval (between 261.0 m and 264.5 m) with a peak of 63,400 cps at 262.5 m1.0 m >300 cps (between 272.0 to 273.0) and 2.0 m >300 cps (between 276.0 m to 278.0 m) PLN22-041 intersected the radioactive structure up-dip from PLN22-038 at a vertical depth of 200m.12.0 m continuous mineralization >300 cps (between 198.5 m to 210.5 m), including 1.85 m of total composite mineralization >10,000 cps over a 5.25 m interval (between 204.5 to 209.75 m) with a peak of 18,800 cps at 208.5 mPLN22-039 was planned to target on section and 15 m down-dip from the discovery hole PLN22-035. Unfortunately, due to significant drill hole deviation the hole steepened excessively, and the target was missed. A structure was intersected 42m down dip from 274.5 m to 283.0 m. No anomalous radioactivity was recorded. Raymond Ashley, Vice President Exploration, commented:\"We are very pleased that the follow up holes continued to intersect strong radioactivity and the company h...
