Our focus this year is to explore the wider project area by testing up to 10 high-priority target areas for additional uranium mineralized zones. Our plan is to showcase the uranium discovery potential of the project area by testing numerous blue-sky targets. Our drill targeting will focus on strong gravity anomalies along prospective fault trends both with and without sandstone cover,\" stated Rebecca Hunter, President, CEO and Director of Forum and upcoming Geiger Energy.
