("NexGen" or the "Company") (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE) (ASX: NXG) is pleased to announce commencement of field programs focused on detailed geotechnical site confirmation studies on the Project and regional exploration drilling at the 100% owned, Rook I property (the "Property"), in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan . Focus of the 2021 Regional Exploration Drilling Program: The Rook I property is host to numerous electromagnetic ("EM") conductors and structural corridors which have yet to be explored as the focus has been on the development of the Arrow Deposit over the last several years. Target high priority areas within a 10 km radius of Arrow including along the Patterson Lake Corridor which hosts the Arrow Deposit. Together with priority targets along the Derkson Corridor which is directly parallel and to the east of the Patterson Corridor that hosts the Arrow Deposit. Arrow 2.0 Target – exploring greater than 300 m below known mineralization at Arrow to test for a replication of Arrow at depth where high grade mineralization remains open. Camp East Target – testing strong geophysical targets along a northeast conductor coincident with a regional north-northeast trend from Camp East through South Arrow and Arrow. Derkson Corridor – Parallel conductor corridor adjacent to the east of the Patterson Lake conductor corridor with highly prospective geophysical targets with known uranium mineralization drilled in historical drilling northeast, off of the SW2 property. Derkson East Target – series of northeast-southwest trending conductors within a strong geophysical and geochemical footprint. Derkson West Target – similar conductor to Patterson Lake Corridor with northeast-southwest trending conductor along magnetic gradient. Also, strong geophysical and geochemical characteristics. All target areas exhibit similar geophysical characteristics to Arrow, including strong conductive ...
