[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, March 28, 2019 /CNW/ - NexGen Energy Ltd. (\"NexGen\" or the \"Company\") (TSX: NXE, NYSE MKT: NXE) is pleased to report radioactivity results for the first twenty holes comprising 8,216.5 m from the Company's first phase of Feasibility-stage drilling program at our 100% owned, Rook I property in the Athabasca Basin Saskatchewan. Highlights: Objective I: Conversion of Indicated to Measured in the A2 Sub-Zone Nineteen targets have been successfully intersected within the A2 Sub-Zone. This current phase of the program focuses on targets intersected at a spacing between 9.0 m and 16.7 m (based on geostatistical data spacing report compiled by Clayton V. Deutsch from Resource Modeling Solutions) for Indicated Mineral Resources to be elevated to a Measured Mineral Resource classification. All drill holes intersected the target between -55° and -60° utilizing the latest in directional drilling technology. The highlights below include composite and off-scale radioactivity results from the A2 Shear only, for radioactivity results for the entire hole see Table 1: Arrow Deposit Drill Hole Data. AR-19-225c1 intersected 38.0 m of total composite mineralization including 10.15 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 91.0 m section (529.0 to 620.0 m) in the A2 Sub-Zone. Additionally, of the 10.15 m of off-scale mineralization intersected in the hole 7.0 m of massive-to-semi massive pitchblende with minimum-greater-than-61,000 cps. AR-19-224c1 intersected 37.5 m of total composite mineralization including 10.8 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 97.0 m section (496.0 to 593.0 m) in the A2 Sub-Zone. Additionally, of the 10.8 m of off-scale mineralization intersected in the hole 4.0 m of massive-to-semi massive pitchblende with minimum-greater-than-61,000 cps. AR-19-224c2 intersected 47.0 m of total composite mineralization including 12.55 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 98.0 m section (453.0 to 551.0 m) in the A2 Sub-Zone. Additionally, of the 12.55 m of off-scale mineralization intersected in the hole 3.0 m of massive-to-semi massive pitchblende with minimum-greater-than-61,000 cps. AR-19-225c2 intersected 35.0 m of total composite mineralization including 11.05 m ...
