Drill Program follows encouraging previous drill results
SASKATOON, SASKATCHEWAN--(Marketwired - Jun 16, 2014) - AZINCOURT URANIUM INC. ("Azincourt" or "the Company") (TSX-VENTURE:AAZ), and its joint venture partner and operator, Fission 3.0 Corp ("Fission 3.0") (TSX-VENTURE:FUU), are pleased to announce an approximate 1600m drill program at the PLN project in Canada's Athabasca Basin. The program, consisting of four to five drill holes, follows the results of the winter 2014 program that has enabled the refinement of high priority drill targets. The drill contract has been awarded to Bryson Drilling, of Archeville, SK. The drill is being mobilized to the first drill site and drilling is expected to commence early this week. The full summer program includes geophysical survey activity and is budgeted at $1.5M.
Ted O'Connor, President and CEO of Azincourt, commented,
"We are excited to start the summer drill program following up the encouraging structure, alteration and geochemistry highlighted from the winter drilling, and to continue to evolve additional targets from the on-going DC Resistivity surveys on our joint venture with the excellent team at Fission 3.0."
Program Details
Drilling on A1 Conductor
Drilling on A4 Conductor
Broach Lake DC Resistivity Survey
N Conductor DC Resistivity survey
Upon completion, all drill holes are radiometrically surveyed using a Mount Sopris 2GHF-1000 Triple Gamma probe, which allows for more accurate measurements in high grade mineralized zones.
Drill core samples are submitted for trace element lithogeochemical analysis to look for pathfinder element enrichment signatures indicative of alteration associated with uranium mineralizing processes. Samples have been submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) of Saskatoon. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63 element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry and boron.
Patterson Lake North Property
The Patterson Lake North property (PLN) lies adjacent and to the north of the Patterson Lake South property, owned by Fission Uranium Corp. (TSX-VENTURE:FUU) where recent drill results have identified high grade uranium in 6 separate pods. (See Fission Uranium news release November 27, 2013.)
PLN was acquired by staking in 2004 and became part of the Fission 3.0 portfolio as part of the Fission Uranium/Alpha Minerals agreement from December 2013. It comprises 27,408 Ha, and is located about 30 km immediately south of the UEX/AREVA Anne and Collette uranium deposits at Shea Creek.
PLN is prospective for hosting structurally controlled high-grade unconformity uranium mineralization that is often associated with basement graphitic shear zones within clay altered metasedimentary basement lithologies. These features have unique characteristics that can be identified by geophysical surveys.
Azincourt has a staged, four year option agreement with Fission 3.0 dated April 29, 2013 whereby Azincourt can earn up to a 50% interest in the PLN project through a combination of option payments and exploration work funding. Approximately $4.7 million has been spent on prior exploration of the property by Fission Uranium. Azincourt has completed Year 1 funding of the option and presently holds a 10% interest. Fission 3.0 is the operator and project manager.
