Searchlight Resources Inc. announced that the 2023 field exploration has been begun on the Company's Kulyk Lake Rare Earth /Uranium project, located approximately 165 km north of La Ronge, Saskatchewan, and 65 km south of the Key Lake Uranium Mill. The 2023 planned exploration includes the completion of the MMI (Mobile Metal Ion) survey begun in 2022, and detailed prospecting of two areas of interest found during the 2022 field surveys. Prospecting area A was selected based on results from the 2022 prospecting program which located multiple REE and uranium targets, including chip sample assays between 0.79% and 0.95% TREO.

This area of interest lies on a topographic ridge which is at least 400 metres long. Prospecting area B was selected based on assays of MMI sample SRC191663 which was collected in 2022. A total of 244 MMI samples were collected during the 2022 survey with multiple REE and Uranium anomalies.

The strongest anomaly was observed in Sample SRC191663, with MMI assay of 136,000 ppb Uranium, which was 1,247 times higher than the average of all other samples. Similarly, Rare Earth values were over 100 times higher than the average of all other samples. A large outcrop is located near to this sample and will be part of the prospecting program.
