TSXV: UCR
RKLAND LAKE, ON, Nov. 2 /CNW/ - Uranium City Resources Inc. ("UCR") is
pleased to announce results from the 2005 exploration program at the Eagle
Lake Project, which is located in the Uranium City region of Northern
Saskatchewan, Canada. The Eagle Lake Project is one of ten uranium projects
within the UCR portfolio.
Nesbitt-Labine Open Pit Samples
-------------------------------
A total of six grab samples and one chip sample were collected from the
Nesbitt-Labine open pit area. Grab sample 801606 containing quartz veining,
returned values of 2.09% U (2.46% U(3)O(8)), 0.097% V, 0.222% Pb, 2,500 ppm Ba
and 22 ppb Au.
Grab sample 801608 collected from north of the pit appears to be "pit fly
rock" and returned values of 4.65% U (5.48% U(3)O(8)), 0.819% V, 3,240 ppm Ba
and 3ppb Au.
A 24 inch chip sample 801612 across the shear zone within the north wall
of the pit returned low values in all elements except for anomalous As.
Grab sample 801652 of a pitchblende breccia vein appears to be "pit fly
rock" and returned values of 12.20% U (14.39% U(3)O(8)), 0.417% Cu, 0.974% Pb
and 4,400 ppm Ba.
Copper Showing North of Shaft Lake
----------------------------------
A combined chip and grab sample (801610) from the north wall of the
copper showing located north of the west end of Shaft Lake returned values of
17.8% Cu, 15.9% Se, 224 ppm Ag, 63 ppb Au, 146 ppb Pt, 79 ppb Pd, 0.07% Ni,
0.3% Pb, 0.987 % Co and 31 ppm U. It is believed that the presence of elevated
levels of copper and selenium represent a geological environment similar to
the Nicholson Uranium Project.
Shaft Lake Mine Area
--------------------
Grab sample 801633 taken from the dump north of Shaft Lake returned
values of 9.50% U (11.20% U(3)O(8)) 1.52% Pb, 0.101% V, 357ppm Ag, 0.54% Cu,
258 ppm Bi, 1240ppm Y and 81 ppb Au.
Grab samples 801654 and 801655, which are from a pit south of the shaft,
returned values of 36.50% U (43.04% U(3)O(8)), and 12.0% U (14.15% U(3)O(8))
respectively. The 43.04% U(3(O(8) sample also contained most of the highest
values in the rare-earth elements from the samples collected during the 2005
exploration program.
Grab sample 801673 from the east-side bedrock exposure of the north pit
(northeast of the shaft) returned values of 14.00% U (16.51% U(3)O(8)),
0.84% Cu, 1.5% Pb and 146 ppm Bi.
Eagle-Ace Mine Area
-------------------
A small pit 1 km northwest of the Eagle Ace Mine was examined and grab
sample 801647 returned values of 40.10% U (47.29% U(3)O(8)), 7.28% Pb,
0.45% V, 109 ppm Nb and elevated levels of most rare earth elements.
SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, completed all
assaying by multi-acid partial and total digestion ICP scan. UCR has converted
the percentage Uranium by factor 1.1793 to uranium oxide (U(3)O(8)).
