Baselode Energy encounters shallow radioactivity; extends uranium mineralization at Hook project

About this update from Geiger Energy Corporation

[{"type":"text","content":"Baselode Energy encounters shallow radioactivity; extends uranium mineralization at Hook project\n \n \n (NewsDirect)\n \n \n \n \n Baselode Energy Corp CEO James Sykes\njoined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with an update on the diamond\ndrilling program on the ACKIO high-grade uranium zone at the Hook\nproject in Saskatchewan.\n \n \n Sykes said\nthe drilling has extended mineralization in Pod 7 by about 50 meters\nfrom the previous model, showing great promise. Notably, high levels\nof radioactivity, exceeding 10,000 counts per second, suggest the\npotential for higher-grade uranium mineralization.\n \n \n Sykes explained that higher counts often\ncorrelate with higher uranium concentrations, indicating significant\npotential for tonnage growth. The shallow nature of the radioactivity\nfindings was highlighted as a positive factor, making the prospect\nmore conducive to cost-effective open-pit mining operations.\n \n \n While the current drilling program at\nACKIO is being remodeled to better predict future exploration\ndirections, the company is shifting its focus to near-Aqua\nreconnaissance exploration drilling.\n \n \n Sykes said he was confident in the shallow mineralization and\nelevated radioactivity levels discovered so far, in line with\nBaselode's objective of finding near-surface, high-grade uranium\nmineralization.\n \n \n Regular news updates are expected every two to\nfour weeks, with assay results following the conclusion of the drill\nprogram.\n \n \n \n Contact Details\n \n \n \n Proactive\nCanada\n \n \n +1 604-688-8158\n \n \n \n [email protected]\n \n \n \n Copyright (c) 2023 TheNewswire - All rights reserved.\n \n \n","length":2137,"tagName":"div"}]
