(\"NexGen\" or the \"Company\") (TSX:NXE, NYSEMKT:NXE) is pleased to report radioactivity results for sixteen holes from South Arrow as part of our on-going summer drilling program on our 100% owned, Rook I property, in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.  \n\nSouth Arrow \n\nAggressive step out drilling at the recently discovered South Arrow has intersected significant off-scale radioactivity in multiple holes, and has extended the strike length and vertical extent of high grade mineralization to 240 m and 185 m, respectively. High grade uranium mineralization occurs as accumulations of semi-massive to massive pitchblende similar to that seen in the High Grade Domains of the Arrow Deposit. \n\n\nAR-17-166c1 (250 m up-dip and southwest of discovery hole AR-17-151c1) intersected 41.0 m of total composite mineralization including 6.2 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 54.0 m section (182.5 to 236.5 m). This is the shallowest significant off-scale mineralization encount...
