[{"type":"text","content":"VANCOUVER, Nov. 30, 2017 /CNW/ - NexGen Energy Ltd. (\"NexGen\" or the \"Company\") (TSX:NXE, NYSE MKT:NXE) is pleased to report radioactivity results for the final forty holes from South Arrow and Arrow as part of our now concluded summer drilling program on our 100% owned, Rook I property, in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Arrow Highlights: Drilling at Arrow has intersected strong mineralization in multiple areas including step-out holes drilled in key mineral resource expansion areas in the southwest gap, northeast gap and within the A3 shear. The Arrow Deposit remains open in most directions. A3 Step-Outs AR-17-159c1 intersected 44.0 m of total composite mineralization including 13.85 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 90.0 m section (377.0 to 467.0 m) in the A3 shear. AR-17-159c2 intersected 54.5 m of total composite mineralization including 11.8 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 101.0 m section (375.5 to 476.5 m) in the A3 shear. A3 Infill AR-17-164c1 intersected 47.5 m of total composite mineralization including 5.0 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 147.0 m section (497.5 to 644.5 m) in the A3 shear. Northeast Gap Step-Out AR-17-171c3 intersected 45.5 m of total composite mineralization including 1.45 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to 23,000 cps) within a 183.0 m section (749.5 to 932.5 m) in the A1 and A2 shears. The hole is 250 m northeast and down-dip of the mineral resource domains. Southwest Gap Step-Out AR-17-161c2 intersected 30.0 m of total composite mineralization including 1.2 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 314.0 m section (626.5 to 940.5 m) in the A3 though A5 shears. The hole is 54 m southwest and down-dip of the mineral resource domains. Drill hole locations and longsections are shown in Figures 1 to 4. Drill hole descriptions can be found on our website at www.nexgenenergy.ca South Arrow Highlights: Systematic drilling at the recently discovered South Arrow has intersected uranium mineralization at continued shallow depths. South Arrow is comprised of multiple, stacked mineralized horizons and high grade mineralization occurs as accumulations of semi-massive to massive pitchbl...
