Stallion Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: STUD) (OTCQB: STLNF) Commences Drilling on Appaloosa Uranium Target – 3,300 Meter Program Testing High Priority Appaloosa Target – Stallion Uranium Corp. (FSE: HM40) is pleased to announce that it has begun drilling on its high priority Appaloosa Target as part the Company’s maiden drill program on its 100% owned Coffer Project in the prolific Southwestern Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada.

 

Highlights:

• The objective of the drill program is the discovery of uranium mineralization associated with conductive electromagnetic (EM) anomalies.
• Drill holes are targeting multiple stacked geophysical anomalies including conductive EM anomalies, gravity low anomalies and magnetic low anomalies.
• Approximately 3,300 meters are planned in 3 drill holes.
• Stallion holds a 100% ownership of the project.

 

“Drilling marks a key milestone for Stallion as we move into more advanced exploration with potential to make a uranium discovery! We have been able to progress the Appaloosa target from a regional survey to an advanced drill target that hosts several known features associated with uranium mineralization,” stated Drew Zimmerman, CEO. “Our systematic approach over such a large land package gives our team high confidence in drill testing the Appaloosa target.”

 

Drill Program:  The diamond drill program is the maiden drill program for Stallion Uranium. Drilling on the first hole is currently underway and will be the first drilling undertaken on Stallion’s 100% owned Coffer Project. The Company has contracted CYR Drilling, a company with extensive drilling experience with a history of successful drill programs in the Southwestern Athabasca Basin. They will utilize one drill to complete a 3,300-meter program on the Appaloosa target. The target area hosts a ~6 km long EM conductor located on the contact between the Beaverlodge and Taltson geological domains. The contact between two domains is an optimal location for uranium bearing fluid to concentrate. The drill targets are along the identified EM conductor and will focus on coincident gravity and magnetic lows associated with alteration which have the potential to host uranium mineralization. The results from the recent ground EM survey are being plate modeled which will be integrated into the final drill targeting models.

 

Stallion will be announcing any anomalous scintillometer results from the program as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials if they are encountered. Final assay results will be released when available and are expected in the summer of 2024 after lithogeochemical analysis is completed.

 

Darren Slugoski, VP Exploration Canada, commented. “We are thrilled to announce that drill coring has begun on Coffer Project. This drilling program is the result from our successful exploration in 2023. We will continue to update market and shareholders with the news as we receive the results.” CONTINUED… Read these full press releases and more news for Stallion Uranium at:  https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-stud/

CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (OTCQX: CVVUF) (TSX-V: CVV) recently reported that drillhole WMA082-4 has intersected 13.75% eU₃O₈ over 16.8 metres, including 40.30% eU₃O₈ over 4.7 metres and 13.54% eU₃O₈ over 2.4 metres at the Pike Zone as part of the ongoing winter exploration program on the West McArthur Joint Venture project (the “Project”) in the eastern Athabasca Basin. The main objectives of the 2024 drill program are continued expansion of the Pike Zone discovery and along strike unconformity testing to the northeast and southwest. The West McArthur project, a Joint Venture with Cameco Corporation, is operated by CanAlaska that holds an 83.35% ownership in the Project (Figure 1). CanAlaska is sole-funding the 2024 West McArthur program, further increasing its majority ownership in the Project.

 

CanAlaska CEO, Cory Belyk, comments, “It is extremely rare to intersect uranium mineralization of this grade and width anywhere in the world, including the Athabasca Basin. This is a significant outcome for the West McArthur JV and CanAlaska shareholders. Since initial discovery in 2022, the CanAlaska team has believed Pike Zone had the potential for Cigar- and McArthur River-like uranium grades and thickness based on prior drilling results. The geologists have been laser focused on determining the geological controls in a clear and methodical approach and the results of this fantastic work are now achieving outcomes for our shareholders. Tier 1 uranium deposits always occur as ‘pearls on a string’ and we have now found a pearl. We look forward to the remainder of the winter program results from West McArthur in the backdrop of an eastern Athabasca region that requires a tier 1 uranium deposit discovery to maintain its current production profile.”

 

IsoEnergy Ltd. (OTCQX: ISENF) (TSX-V: ISO) recently announced its strategic decision to reopen access to the underground at our Tony M uranium mine (“Tony M” or the “Mine) in the first half of 2024 (“H1-2024”), with the goal of restarting uranium production operations in 2025, should market conditions continue as expected. The decision to advance Tony M is underpinned by rising uranium prices, the climate of increasing support and demand for nuclear energy, and the recent announcement by Energy Fuels Inc. (“EFR”) to restart its uranium circuit at the White Mesa Mill (the “Mill”), with whom IsoEnergy has a toll milling agreement.

 

Tony M, along with our Daneros and Rim projects, is one of three past-producing, fully-permitted, uranium mines in Utah owned by IsoEnergy, and is a large-scale, fully-developed and permitted underground mine that previously produced nearly one million pounds of U₃O₈ during two different periods of operation, from 1979-1984 and from 2007-2008.

 

Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) recently reported its financial results for the year ended December 31, 2023. The Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and may be viewed on the Electronic Document Gathering and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”) at www.sec.gov/edgar.html, on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (“SEDAR”) at www.sedar.com, and on the Company’s website at www.energyfuels.com.

Mark S. Chalmers, Energy Fuels’ President and CEO, stated:  “In 2023, Energy Fuels joined an exclusive club. With nearly $100 million in net income, we became one of the only profitable non-state-owned uranium mining companies in the world. There were two factors that contributed to our profitability: profitable uranium sales that captured the recent sharp rise in uranium prices and the sale of our non-core Alta Mesa project. The Alta Mesa sale was important, because it provided the Company with the funds needed to increase our uranium production and strategically diversify into the REE business. Keep in mind that while net income was less than Alta Mesa proceeds, this was by design, as we are investing heavily in growth to become a sustainably profitable, high-margin U.S. critical minerals company.”

 

Denison Mines Corp. (NYSE American: DNN) recently announced that it has completed an acquisition of fixed and mobile MaxPERF Tool Systems from Penetrators Canada Inc. (“Penetrators”). Significantly, Penetrators has also agreed to work exclusively with Denison with respect to the use of the MaxPERF Tool Systems for uranium mining applications, and related services, in Saskatchewan for a 10-year period.

Palm Beach, FL – February 21, 2024 – FN Media Group News Commentary – According to a report from a RationalStat industry report, the Global Uranium Mining Market value was estimated at US$ 8,086.6 million in 2023 and is expected to rise at a strong CAGR of over 5.0% over the forecast period of 2023-2030. About 66% of the global production of uranium from mines is from Kazakhstan, Canada, and Australia. It also said that the global uranium mining market is expected to reach US$ 11,388.3 million by 2030, with an annual growth rate of more than 5.0%. The uranium mining market is estimated to be 53.0 thousand tons (kt) in 2023.  The report added: “Uranium mining is the extraction of uranium ore from the ground for use in nuclear power plants and the development of nuclear weapons. Uranium is a radioactive element that occurs naturally in trace amounts in soil, rock, and water. Uranium is primarily used as a fuel in nuclear reactors, where it undergoes nuclear fission to produce energy in the form of heat.  Based on the mining method, the open-pit mining segment is the most common method of uranium mining, accounting for over 90% of global uranium production in 2022. Open-pit mining is a relatively simple and inexpensive method of mining, and it is suitable for deposits that are close to the surface.”  Active mining companies in the markets this week include Stallion Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: STUD) (OTCQB: STLNF), FISSION URANIUM CORP. (OTCQX: FCUUF) (TSX: FCU), Denison Mines Corp (NYSE American: DNN) (TSX: DML), Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE American: UEC), BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP).

 

RationalStat continued: “Some leading players adopt various strategies in order to reinforce their market share and gain a competitive edge over other competitors in the market. Mergers & acquisitions, partnerships and collaborations, and product launches are some of the strategies followed by industry players.  Based on region, the Asia Pacific region is predicted to be the fastest-growing uranium mining market in the next years, owing to the region’s increased nuclear power generation.  Nuclear power is regarded as a clean energy source because it produces no greenhouse gases when in operation. Countries investing in nuclear energy to cut carbon emissions and battle climate change are boosting the uranium market.”

 

Stallion Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: STUD) (OTCQB: STLNF) Completes Largest Airborne Geophysical Survey in Southwestern Athabasca Basin – Survey Area Covered Over 2,200km², Preliminary Results Reveal Over 560 km of New Conductive Trends – Stallion Uranium Corp. (FSE: HM40) is pleased to announce the preliminary results from the completion of the MobileMT^TM airborne geophysical survey (the “Survey”). The Survey covered the entire 2,200 sq/km of the Atha Energy (CSE: SASK) JV Uranium Project (the “Project”), a new frontier of exploration in the prolific southwestern Athabasca Basin and part of the largest exploration land package held by Stallion.

 

Highlights

• Over 560 km of new basement conductive trends have been outlined.
• Successfully identified and extended the Patterson Lake Corridor, Carter Corridor, Derkson Corridor, R7 Corridor, Virgin River Conductive Trend and the Coyote Corridor across the project.
• Large multi-kilometer conductive trends coincide with basement structures interpreted to be present in multiple locations across the project.
• The latest in 2D and 3D inversion processing will be utilized to further identify sandstone and basement alteration zones associated with uranium mineralization in the basin.

 

“Stallion’s strategy to build out the largest exploration land package, taking on a new frontier of exploration in the southwestern Athabasca Basin, has been rewarded with the results of this regional survey,” stated Drew Zimmerman, CEO. “Utilizing the latest survey technology we have transformed an underexplored land package, uncovering hundreds of kilometers of conductive trends that are highly prospective target areas for uranium mineralization. Not only have we extended known prolific conductive corridors, but we have also been able to uncover completely new zones. We believe the process of identifying, prioritizing, and advancing the best targets from over 2,200sq/km gives our team the potential and probability of finding the next significant uranium discovery.”

 

Preliminary Results – The preliminary interpretation of the survey data has changed the landscape in a meaningful way, successfully identifying over 560 km of new conductive trends across the Atha Energy JV Project. This opens a new frontier of exploration in the southwestern Athabasca Basin, as the project area has never had effective exploration. With the completion of the survey, the company has been able to identify and extend new conductive corridors that were previously unknown. These new conductive corridors will be the cornerstone that the next phase of exploration is built on. The survey was able to identify structural complexities, including bends and splays, in the basement geology which suggest favorable conditions for uranium mineralization. These results, along with the advanced 2-D and 3-D inversion modeling, will be used to prioritize the newly identified conductor corridors for the next stages of exploration.

 

Darren Slugoski, VP of Exploration commented, “We are incredibly excited to see the quality and number of targets that were identified by the completion of the regional MobileMT survey. The 560 km of conductive corridors identified greatly exceeded our expectations. This survey provides Stallion with a significant number of high priority target areas the company can prioritize and advance towards the drilling.”  CONTINUED… Read these full press releases and more news for Stallion Uranium at:  https://stallionuranium.com/news/press-releases/

BHP Group Limited (NYSE: BHP) has recently announced its second cohort of six companies, chosen from a pool of over 500 applicants, to join the BHP Xplor accelerator program. The accelerator program is designed to support early-stage mineral exploration companies in finding the critical resources needed to support the energy transition.

 

Each company will receive a grant of up to US$500,000 together with access to a network of internal and external industry experts to accelerate its growth and further build out its exploration concepts. The program aims to support development across technical, business and operational facets of the participating companies.

 

BHP Xplor pushes the boundaries of what has conventionally been achievable in the exploration field. Over the span of the six-month program, the six companies will work collaboratively with BHP Xplor to expedite the maturation of their geological concepts to position the projects for commercialisation or partnership.

Palm Beach, FL – (December 13, 2018) – Vanadium has made a huge comeback in 2018. Vanadium’s price rise in 2018 has been nothing short of spectacular rising dramatically from USD $20/lb to above USD $33/lb in October 2018.  Prices in China have more than tripled over the course of 2018 as a result of Chinese construction laws requiring vanadium to be used in steel rebar.  Vanadium and Energy storage is also a very important disruptive trend resulting in a growing demand for vanadium redox flow batteries which involves storing energy that can later be harnessed for electricity to power our homes, our cars – our future. The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) states Batteries for energy storage could reach 250GW by 2030 as demand for Energy Efficient Batteries is generating new levels of growth.  Active mining companies in the markets this week include Delrey Metals Corp.  (CSE:DLRY) (FSE:1OZ), Albemarle Corporation (NYSE:ALB), Largo Resources Ltd. (TSX:LGO) (OTC:LGORF), Katanga Mining Limited (TSX:KAT) (OTC:KATFF), First Vanadium Corp. (TSX-V:FVAN) (OTC:FVANF).

 

Delrey Metals Corp.  (CNX:DLRY) (FSE:1OZ)  BREAKING NEWS:  Delrey Metals Corp is pleased to announce it has entered into and closed a share purchase agreement dated December 12, 2018 (the “Share Purchase Agreement”) with WEM Western Energy Metals Ltd., a private arm’s length corporation (“WEM”), to acquire all the issued and outstanding share capital of WEM.  Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 4,250,000 common shares of the Company (each, a “Share”). All securities issued pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement will be subject to a four month statutory hold period.

 

WEM owns a 100 percent undivided, unencumbered legal and beneficial interest in both the Peneece and the Blackie Vanadium properties (the “Properties”), located in British Columbia. The Properties cover a total area of 2,714 hectares and host vanadium mineralization within large bodies of titaniferous magnetite. Both properties are strategically located on tidewater, near to the small coastal cities of Port Hardy (Peneece – 68km) and Prince Rupert (Blackie – 96km).

 

About the Peneece and Blackie Vanadium Projects:

The Properties are comprised of large-scale ultramafic complexes which are intruded by gabbroic bodies hosting iron-titanium-vanadium (Fe-Ti-V) mineralization within massive titaniferous magnetite. Two of the gabbro bodies mapped on surface display lateral extents of 4.8km x 0.8km (Peneece) and 1.2km x 0.4km (Blackie).

 

Highlights:

 

• Historic samples collected from the gabbro on the Blackie assay up to 2.14% V₂0₅.¹
• The Blackie property is located in a historic mining district. The adjacent past-producing Yellow Giant Mine, located less than 10km from the property and operated by Banks Island Gold as recently as 2015 initially boasted a 414% IRR, showing the economic potential that exists on Banks Island².
• McDougall (1984), commented that, “an unusually strong and extensive magnetic anomaly exists over the [Peneece Property]. It was, and still remains the largest flux gate magnetic anomaly noted by the writer during many years of work on the West Coast. The size and overall magnetic intensity of the anomaly were only exceeded at the multi-billion ton “Klukwan pyroxenite-amphibolite” deposit in S.E. Alaska.”
• Magnetic concentrate from limited float samples collected distal to the magnetic anomaly on the Peneece Property assayed up to 0.59% V₂0₅.¹
• Both properties are easily accessible by boat or helicopter and workable year round. Historic barge-logging was completed within and near to the project areas, which has created a network of logging roads and allows for low cost exploration and development.

 

An initial work program including a high-resolution airborne magnetic survey is planned in the near term on both Properties.     Read this and more news for Delrey Metals Corp at https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-dlry
