Property DescriptionsDouble S ZoneReconnaissance drilling outside of the known main zone at Double S in the 2008 winter program confirmed a number of new separate zones of mineralization, ranging from 1300 - 2900 meters NW of the main Double Zone. These new areas within the trend are known as the Middle Zone and TJ Zone. Double S Geology Map (PDF, 174 kb) Middle Zone On the Middle Zone this year, 33 drill holes and 7,071.5 meters were drilled. Multiple mineralized zones were encountered in the summer drilling program, with up to 72.25 meters grading 0.012% U3O8 encountered in MZ-08-23, 70.3 meters grading 0.013% U3O8 encountered in MZ-08-31, and 60.8 meters of 0.013% U3O8 in MZ-08-27. Numerous discrete mineralized zones within each drill hole continue to be encountered in the Middle zone. Detailed surface mapping and diamond drilling was completed in this area to better define the nature and extent of mineralization. Middle Zone Map (PDF, 268 kb) TJ Zone The TJ zone has had historic mapping and surface sampling completed on it, but no drilling was carried out on this zone prior to the 2008 program. The winter 2008 drilling was executed on widely spaced drill sites with a total of 6,791 meters of diamond drilling completed in 33 holes. Multiple mineralized zones were encountered in the summer drilling program, with up to 23.8 meters grading 0.010% U3O8 encountered in TJ-08-09 and 16.5 meters of 0.012% U3O8 in TJ-08-12. Similar to the Middle zone, numerous discrete mineralized zones within each drill hole continue to occur at the TJ zone. TJ Zone Map (PDF, 268 kb) Turgeon Est Pending Lac Petit 1,226 meters of drilling in 6 holes was completed on the Lac Petit zone to follow up drill results from the winter 2007 program. The program was aimed at better defining the orientation and extent of mineralization in this area. The company has now outlined a mineralized zone at Lac Petit over an area roughly 800 meters long by 200 meters wide. Mineralization remains open along strike and down dip, with the uranium mineralization hosted by a sequence of pegmatites and granites. Johan Beetz The Johan Beetz property is located five kilometers to the southeast of Double S. Several mineralized zones in the Johan Beetz area were encountered. Stacked zones were found at depths ranging from 7 meters to 200 meters depth. A total of 2000 meters was drilled in 10 holes. Further drilling will focus on following these mineralized zones up dip where they outcrop. Grandroy Pending Grandroy Map (PDF, 91 kb) | |
