NEWS RELEASE

 

CanAlaska Sells Two Diamond Prospects in Pikoo Region and Alaska Gold Subsidiary

 

Holds Interests in 13 Properties in Pikoo District

 

Vancouver, Canada, May 1, 2015 - CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSX-V: CVV; OTCQB: CVVUF; Frankfurt: DH7N) reports the sale of its C2 and C3 diamond claims to Copper Reef Mining Corporation. The two properties are located in the Pikoo diamond-bearing district in Eastern Saskatchewan, approximately 40 kilometres southeast of North Arrow Minerals Inc.’s Pikoo diamond discoveries. CanAlaska has interests in thirteen properties in the Pikoo diamond region. As the Company’s focus is uranium exploration, the sale of its diamond properties enables the monetization of non-core assets.

 

Terms of the sale include 1,000,000 shares of Copper Reef Mining (500,000 shares per claim block) payable on regulatory approval. CanAlaska will retain a 2.5% NSR over which Copper Reef has a Right of First Refusal. Copper Reef must complete 2 years of assessment work on the properties or issue 1,000,000 additional shares. CanAlaska will transfer title once shares are received.

 

The C2 and C3 claims contain a number of magnetic targets that could be caused by kimberlite intrusions. These excellent kimberlite-like magnetic targets occur in Archean basement rocks next to the Tabbenor Fault. Since overburden in the Pikoo area is quite thin, it has favourable conditions for till sampling, prospecting and drilling. Additionally, roads are conveniently located within 1-2 kilometres from the properties to provide inexpensive access.

 

Following North Arrow Minerals’ 2013 discovery of several diamond-bearing kimberlites at their Pikoo property, CanAlaska staked thirteen claims (four now acquired by Copper Reef) in the district deemed to be highly prospective for diamonds. The staking rush continued into 2014 with several groups acquiring ground in the region. Recent exploration in the Pikoo district has identified kimberlite indicator minerals in several areas.
