[{"type":"text","content":"Traction Positions for Summer 2026 Exploration Catalyst with 5,212-Line-Kilometer Program CALGARY, Alberta, May 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Traction Uranium Corp. (CSE: TRAC) (OTC: TRCTF) (FRA: Z1K) (the “Company” or “Traction”) is pleased to announce further details regarding the planned airborne radiometric survey at the Aurora Uranium Project (“Aurora” or the “Project”), located in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin region. Further to the Company’s previous announcement regarding the engagement of Special Projects Inc. (“SPI”), the survey is expected to consist of approximately 5,212-line kilometers of low-level, tight-drape, high-resolution radiometric and aeromagnetic surveying across the Project. The survey will be completed under the direction of Cosa Resources Corp. (“Cosa”), the underlying owner and operator of the Project. Traction holds an option to acquire an 80% interest in Aurora from Cosa, subject to satisfying certain earn-in requirements (please see news release dated February 11, 2026). The Aurora Project covers approximately 17 kilometers of prospective strike along the southeastern margin of the Athabasca Basin. The planned survey is expected to occur between June and July 2026 over an estimated 17-day operating period, subject to seasonal weather conditions, aircraft availability, equipment preparation, calibration, and other operational considerations. Field operations are expected to be based primarily from Points North Landing, Saskatchewan. The survey is designed to provide high-resolution radiometric coverage across Aurora, with traverse lines planned at 50-meter spacing and tie lines planned at 750-meter spacing. The survey will use a low-level tight-drape method, subject to safety and operating conditions, and will collect both spectrometer and high-resolution magnetic data. The planned survey configuration is intended to support the identification of radioactive anomalies, refine geological and structural interpretations, and help prioritize areas for follow-up exploration. SPI’s airborne radiometric system includes a 16-detector, Compton-shielded, thermally stabilized sodium iodide scintillometer array, supported by high-resolution magnetic acquisition, laser altimeter, Global Navigation Satellite System (“GNSS”), inertial navigation, and onboard quality control systems.
