Purepoint Uranium to advance exploration at prospective Athabasca Basin projects

Source:Small Caps

Toronto-based Purepoint Uranium Group (TSX-V: PTU) has outlined ambitious exploration plans for the remainder of the year at its suite of 10 wholly-owned projects and one joint venture asset in Canada's prolific Athabasca Basin. The program of work includes follow-up drilling at some of the company's high-priority targets, inaugural drilling at more advanced prospects and initial geophysical work over earlier stage properties.

Purepoint president and chief executive officer Chris Frostad said the company was keen to return to the Red Willow project where a winter drilling campaign identified a continuous corridor of elevated radioactivity associated with the Osprey Zone electromagnetic conduc- tor. A total of 12 holes for 2,088 metres encountered anomalous radioactivity at a shallow depth from surface across a distance of 1.2 kilometres.

"Moving the drill with large 300-metrestep-outs, we were able to determine that the northern portion of this conductor was subject to an area-wide mineralisation event resulting in the potential for significant uranium deposition," Mr Frostad explained. "The discovery of a clearly-defined continuous zone of radioactivity extending across such a long distance with peaks exceeding 33,000 counts per second, provides an exciting preview of what our next program may demonstrate."

Red Willow drilling: Drilling at Red Willow will resume in September to follow-up on the final hole of the winter program, which encountered numerous structures, with hematite alteration and silicification representing a highly prospective setting for uranium deposition. Red Willow is situated on the northern edge of the eastern Athabasca Basin mine corridor in northern Saskatchewan. The property is located close to several uranium deposits including Orano Canada's McLean Lake operation, approximately 10km to the southwest, and Cameco Corporation's Eagle Point mine, 10km to the south.

Flagship project: In June, Purepoint plans to conduct a deep-sensing ZTEM airborne geophysical survey over its flagship Hook Lake project in the Patterson district to further refine drill targets in anticipation of a follow-up drill program. Considered to be the most prospective exploration project in Athabasca Basin, Hook Lake is a joint venture between Cameco, Orano and Purepoint and has been operated by Purepoint since 2007.

Purepoint said it would also run an airborne gravity survey next month over the Carson Lake and Russell South projects, where significant preliminary work has already been completed.

Richest uranium jurisdiction: The Athabasca Basin is the world's richest uranium jurisdiction which is host to several of the highest-grade uranium deposits on the planet. Spanning close to 100,000sq km across Saskatchewan and Alberta, the basin is a major contributor to Canada's status as the world's second largest uranium producer and the third largest holder of uranium reserves. The region is home to the world's largest uranium mine at Cigar Lake (owned by Cameco), which reports average grades of 14.69% uranium oxide and accounts for 13% of global uranium production.

Aggressive approach: Purepoint is focused on advancing properties with well-defined targets of strong, high-grade uranium potential, driven by an aggressive, systematic approach of identifying key projects with solid indicators and historical significance in the basin. Since 2002, the company has acquired and explored over 5000sq km of property across Athabas- ca, and quickly released those which have demonstrated the fewest prospects.

The company has been left with a collection of well-understood projects containing dozens of clearly defined, uranium-bearing targets which have been safely maintained to maximise their value during the current uranium price revival. ●

Purepoint Uranium outlined their remaining 2022 exploration plans for the Hook Lake Joint Venture and eight of their 100% owned projects in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan Canada. These plans include follow-up drilling at the Company's Red Willow project where this win- ter's program outlined an astounding 1.2 kilometres of continuous elevated radioactivity.

"By the end of the year we will have completed updated field work at all of our ten, 100% owned uranium projects. This work has included follow-up drilling at some of our high priority targets, inaugural drilling at our more advanced prospects and initial geophysical work over our earlier stage properties." noted Chris Frostad, President & CEO of Purepoint. "Although we continue to advance our entire portfolio, we are most excited about returning to our newest priority at Red Willow's Osprey Zone. The discovery of a clearly defined continuous zone of radioactivity extending across such a long distance, with peaks exceeding 33,000 counts per second, provides an exciting preview of what our next program may demonstrate".

Highlights

  • Drilling at Red Willow will resume in September following up on the last program's final hole OSP22-15 which encountered numerous structures with hematite alteration and silicification representing a highly prospective setting for uranium deposition.
  • Time allowing, the Company expects to complete the Fall drill season in early November at Turnor Lake, testing numerous initial targets including the Serin Zone that resides on trend with IsoEnergy's Hurricane deposit.
  • Fall drilling will utilize helicopter support as many of the primary targets (and access) at both Red Willow and Turnor Lake reside in wet, marshy areas. Drilling will focus on priority follow-up and some first pass targets. More extensive drilling will follow next winter.
  • On May 4, 2022, the Company filed an updated National Instrument 43-101 compliant technical report on the Hook Lake Joint Ven- ture project (https://purepoint.ca/projects/hook-lake/ - "Technical Report on the Hook Lake Project, Northern Saskatchewan, Canada April 19, 2022").
  • In June, Purepoint will carry out a deep sensing ZTEM airborne geophysical survey over the Hook Lake, Carter Corridor to further refine drill targets in anticipation of a follow-up drill program.
  • An airborne gravity survey is planned in June over the Carson Lake and Russell South projects. These surveys have proven valuable in identifying alteration zones that can refine drill targets when viewed in tandem with existing historic work.
  • In July, an airborne electromagnetic (EM) survey will be conducted over the MillKey, JebRaven, MidBear and CollinEagle projects (col- lectively referred to the Tabbernor Projects). The survey will help identify structural splays off of the North/South trending Tabbernor structure as well as associated graphitic conductor targets in the area.
  • Purepoint is fully funded to carry on the work outline herein.

Red Willow Project

The 100% owned Red Willow property is situated on the northern edge of the eastern Athabasca Basin mine corridor in Northern Saskatch- ewan, Canada. The property is located in close proximity to several uranium deposits including Orano Resources Canada Inc.'s JEB mine, approximately 10 kilometres to the southwest, and Cameco's Eagle Point mine that is approximately 10 kilometres due south.

Red Willow consists of 17 mineral claims having a total area of 40,116 hectares. Geophysical surveys conducted by Purepoint have included airborne magnetic and EM surveys, an airborne radiometric survey, ground gradient array IP, pole-dipole array IP, fixed-loop and moving -loop transient electromagnetics, and gravity. The detailed airborne VTEM survey provided magnetic results that are an excellent base on which to interpret structures while the EM results outlined over 70 kilometres of conductors that in most instances represent favourable graphitic lithology.

Turnor Lake Project

Turnor Lake is most notably associated with the Kelsey Dome Granite, a pinwheel shaped magnetic high encircled with clusters of graphitic conductors and numerous high-grade uranium showings. The La Rocque Uranium Corridor bisects the northern portion of the project area and lies along the western edge of the Kelsey Dome Formation.

Extensive geophysical programs have allowed Purepoint to outline approximately 34 kilometres of conductors throughout the Turnor Lake Project. Most recently, Purepoint created a 3D lithological model from interpreted cross-sections, drill hole information and surface/bed- rock geology. Geophysical data was added in tight integration with the geological model and newly created geophysical inversions, allowing the geophysical data to be represented by a 3D distribution of physical rock properties. Using GOCAD Mining suite Targeting Workflow by Mira Geoscience, the geological, geochemical and geophysical datasets were then integrated and the exploration drill targets were refined.

The Serin conductor is interpreted to be the northeastern extension of the conductor system which hosts Cameco Corp's high grade uranium mineralization at La Rocque Lake (29.9% U3O8 over 7.0 m in hole Q22-40) and IsoEnergy Ltd.'s Laroque East project which hosts their recently discovered high-grade Hurricane Zone (38.8% U3O8 over 7.5 m in hole LE20-76). Serin is a near-vertical conductor extending northeast-southwest for at least 2.2 km and is interpreted to lie at a shallow depth of 400 to 450m below surface.

Results from EM surveys conducted by Purepoint suggest the conductor is vertically offset by approximately 150 metres at the same location that a seismic survey, conducted by Saskatchewan Energy and Mines in 1984, reflects a significant down drop in the basement topography. The MacArthur River Deposit, one of the world's largest uranium mines, was formed at the site of a similar basement step-fault that likely focused mineralized fluids.

Hook Lake - The Carter Corridor

The Hook Lake JV Project is owned jointly by Cameco Corp. (39.5%), Orano Canada Inc. (39.5%) and Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (21%) as operator and consists of nine claims totaling 28,598 hectares situated in the southwestern Athabasca Basin. The Hook Lake JV Project is considered one of the highest quality uranium exploration projects in the Athabasca Basin due to its location along the prospective Patter- son Lake trend and the relatively shallow depth to the unconformity.

The 25-kilometre strike length of the Carter structural/conductive corridor is almost entirely located within the Hook Lake JV project. The Carter corridor is a long lived, reactivated fault zone that lies between the Clearwater Domain granitic intrusives to the west and runs parallel to the Patterson structural corridor to the immediate east.

The Patterson Lake area was recently flown by an airborne gravity survey (Boulanger, Kiss and Tschirhart, 2019) that was funded by the Targeted Geoscience Initiative (TGI), a collaborative federal geoscience program. The gravity results show the southern portion of the Carter corridor as being associated with the same gravity high response as the Triple R and Arrow uranium deposits. The gravity low response west of the Carter corridor reflects the geologically younger, Clearwater Domain intrusions. The TGI (Potter et al., 2020) consider the Clearwater Domain intrusions as being high-heat-producers that warmed and circulated hydrothermal fluids over the structural corridors. Prolonged interaction of oxidized uranium-bearing fluids with basement rocks via reactivated faults is thought to have formed the high-grade uranium deposits.

Purepoint completed three drill holes in the southern portion of the Carter corridor (HK08-01 to 03) during 2008. HK08-01 intersected very strong sericite and silica hydrothermal alteration) and returned a maximum of 17 ppm U within basement rock but missed the conductor source. HK08-02 returned locally elevated radioactivity from 20 to 30 metres below the unconformity while HK08-03 intersected 60 metres of intense hydrothermal hematite alteration below the unconformity.

Carson Lake Project

The 100% owned, 4,972 hectare, Carson Lake Project adjoins ValOre Metals Hatchet Lake Project on the north-eastern edge of the Atha- basca Basin. The project covers a historic airborne geophysical EM survey that outlined a strong northeast trending conductor approximately 10 kilometres in length. The survey presents two primary target areas.

To the north, the Killock target is presumed to be graphitic pelite that has been incorporated into the north-south trending Killock Fault. Brittle structures such as the Killock fault intersecting ductile rock types, such as graphitic pelite, can create favourable dilation zones and allow uranium-rich fluids to become trapped.

The Lejour target is located where the north-south trending Lejour Fault crosscuts the main conductor. The recent interpretation of the EW data by Purepoint indicates that the single conductor west of the Lejour Fault is present as two parallel conductors south of the fault.

Russell South Project

The 100% owned Russell Lake Project is located near the south-central edge of the Athabasca Basin covering an area of 13,320 hectares. The project adjoins Cameco's Key Lake project on which the Key Lake Mine produced over 200 million pounds of uranium at a grade averaging 2.3% U3O8 between 1983 and 1997. In addition, the project adjoins the Moore Lake Project owned by Skyharbour Resources Ltd. with their high-grade Maverick Zone and Rio Tinto's Russell Lake Project to the west and south.
