[{"type":"text","content":"IsoEnergy and Purepoint Report Assay Grades of up to 5.4% U3O8 from Initial Holes at the Nova Discovery on the Dorado JVToronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 6, 2025) - IsoEnergy Ltd. (NYSE American: ISOU) (TSX: ISO) (\"IsoEnergy\") and Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) (OTCQB: PTUUF) (\"Purepoint\") today announced that initial assays from the first two discovery drill holes completed at their joint venture Dorado project's (\"Dorado\" or the \"Project\") Nova Discovery in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin have confirmed the presence of high-grade uranium mineralization (Figure 1). Strong assay results from PG25-04 and PG25-05, based on select samples rushed through the lab, validate the significance of the mineralization encountered at the Q48 target. The PG25-05 sample returned 1.0 metre grading 2.2% U₃O₈, including 0.3 metres at 5.4% U₃O₈, while PG25-04 samples returned 0.6 metres grading 1.0% U₃O₈. Assays from PG25-07, which intersected a much thicker mineralized interval and recorded the strongest radioactivity readings to date (peaking at 110,800 counts per second (\"CPS\") from the downhole probe), are still pending and expected in the coming weeks.HighlightsPartial assay results received from two of eight diamond drill holes (\"DDH\") completed during the summer program; additional program details are provided below.Select samples from hole PG25-05 averaged 2.2% U₃O₈ over 1.0 metre, including 5.4% U₃O₈ over 0.3 metres.Select samples from hole PG25-04 averaged 1.0% U₃O₈ over 0.6 metres.Assays validate the mineralization first intersected at Q48 hosted in a steeply dipping, brittle basement fault that remains open to the northeast.Complete assays on all holes will be processed and disclosed in due course.Follow-up drilling to extend the mineralized trend northeast is planned for the winter, when frozen ground enables land-based access.\"These assays validate the significance of the mineralization first intersected at Q48,\" said Chris Frostad, President & CEO of Purepoint Uranium. \"The grades confirm what we observed in the core and the strong radioactivity readings, establishing Nova as a robust uranium-bearing structure. With PG25-07 still to be assayed, we are continuing to build on the early success of this program.\"\"Ea...
