VANCOUVER, Oct. 15, 2013 /CNW/ - Kivalliq Energy Corporation ("Kivalliq", TSX-V: KIV) has made a strategic addition to the Company's project portfolio through a transaction with Pacific Ridge Exploration Ltd. ("Pacific Ridge", TSX-V: PEX) to acquire a uranium exploration property in the prospective Baker Lake Basin of Nunavut Territory, Canada.
Kivalliq will, subject to all necessary approvals, acquire 100% of Pacific Ridge's ownership interest in the Baker Basin Uranium Property:
"Kivalliq continually evaluates projects worldwide to increase our exposure to high-quality uranium assets. We believe that the current value proposition of the Baker Basin Property was too great an opportunity to pass up," stated Jim Paterson, Kivalliq's CEO. "Our extensive northern exploration experience, as well as our relationships and award winning environmental track record in Nunavut Territory, give Kivalliq a competitive advantage to rapidly advance the Baker Basin Property."
For Baker Basin Property information: http://www.kivalliqenergy.com/angilak/baker_basin/
The Baker Basin Property is made up of 95 claims totalling 232,262 acres, located 60 kilometres south of the hamlet of Baker Lake, Nunavut Territory, Canada. Areva's Kiggavik uranium project (133 million lb mineral resource at 0.55% U3O8 , Areva, Fourth IPGC, Vancouver January 24, 2012) is located approximately 80 kilometres west of Baker Lake and Agnico Eagle's Meadowbank gold mine(358,000 oz Au/year production: http://www.agnicoeagle.com) is located 70 kilometres north of Baker Lake.
The hamlet of Baker Lake is an important regional centre for mineral exploration and development in Nunavut; providing access to ocean shipping lanes, year-round airport facilities, and local capacity to provide all needed operational support services and supplies.
Previous Exploration
Prior groups exploring the Baker Basin property completed airborne
radiometric surveys in 1969 and 1974 that defined a trend of uranium
targets along the 60 kilometre length of the prospective southern
boundary area of the Baker Lake Basin. Follow-up programs by New
Continental Oil, Pan Ocean, Cominco and Noranda from 1969 to 1981
outlined multiple anomalous targets. Uranium exploration programs were
based primarily on the Athabasca Basin Unconformity Hosted Uranium
model and later focused on Kiggavik style mineralization. No
significant uranium exploration occurred after the early 1980s until
Pacific Ridge initiated a comprehensive program in 2006.
Recent Exploration
Recent exploration, from 2006 to 2008 by Pacific Ridge and project joint
venture partner Aurora Energy Resources Inc., also focused on the
"Kazan Type Model", where uranium mineralization is found peripheral to
lamprophyre dykes hosted by high angle structural shears within the
Proterozoic Kazan Formation sandstone.
Pacific Ridge, and joint venture partner Aurora Energy Resources Inc., spent over CDN$7.1 million evaluating and advancing near-surface structurally controlled uranium targets and made several significant discoveries (Lucky 7 Zone, TK Zone, Niner Zone and 7-One Zone) which have not been fully evaluated. From existing datasets, the property offers a number of compelling uranium targets, including two zones which Kivalliq considers drill ready. "Pacific Ridge's success in making new and important uranium discoveries, which were not advanced by the subsequent operator, makes the entire Baker Basin Property ripe for a systematic and targeted exploration campaign," stated Jeff Ward, Kivalliq's President.
Kivalliq Exploration Priorities
Priorities for Kivalliq include immediate compilation of all available
data to rank uranium occurrences and targets for future drilling. Plans
and budgets for the Baker Basin Property will be disclosed after a
review of existing data has been completed.
Terms for the Acquisition of the Baker Basin Uranium Property
Subject to receipt of all necessary approvals, Kivalliq will acquire
100% of Pacific Ridge's interest, i.e. 100% interest in all minerals
except diamonds, in the Baker Basin Property, by:
The securities issued as part of the transaction will be subject to customary hold periods. The Baker Basin Property is subject to certain royalties.
