The survey is being carried out by Geotech Ltd. of Aurora, Ontario.HighlightsDirect Detection Capabilities: The helicopter-borne VTEM™ Plus system readily detects the electrically conductive graphite-rich rocks that are the favoured targets for large basement-hosted uranium deposits. Large and Detailed Survey Area: The survey will cover the Sun Dog and Murmac properties and consist of 3,350 km of flight lines in a grid pattern with 100 m spacing between each flight line. This will allow for prioritization of existing drill targets and generation of additional drill targets. Cutting Edge Approach: This survey represents one important modern tool that the Company is utilizing to maximize high-grade uranium discovery efficiency. Much of the survey area is unexplored and unsurveyed by modern methods thus providing a key new discovery opportunity in a frontier region of the Athabasca Basin. New Ideas & New Vectors: These large properties are significantly underexplored for basement-hosted uranium, examples of which include NexGen Energy's Arrow Deposit (TSX: NXE) and Fission Uranium's Triple R Deposit (TSX: FCU).Fast Track to Drilling Dozens of Targets: Since 2020, exploration partners Fortune Bay (TSXV: FOR) and Standard Uranium (TSXV: STND) have invested $7.6M in early exploration revealing dozens of targets, multiple uranium-fertile EM-conductor corridors and ten new shallow uranium occurrences between 20 and 150 m below surface poised for immediate exploration as a starting point.Galen McNamara, CEO of Aero Energy, commented: \"VTEM™ Plus surveys represent a significant step forward in Aero's ongoing efforts to leverage advanced technology for exploration success.\" He continued, \"the survey will allow us to obtain high-resolution data of our targeted mineralizing systems, which we believe to be active across the sur...
