Jun 26, 2024 (Nazha Sabiri) - Uranium is found in a breccia that is about 76 m long and 0.3 m wide. RGP staff visited the property, sampled and assayed the radiometric breccia and found a radiometric assay of 0.14% U3O8. OGS collected and assayed 17 samples with radiometric assays ranging from nil to 0.18% U3O8. GCS assayed 23 samples with radiometric assays ranging from 0.01% to 0.21% U3O8. One sample from the property assayed by chemical analysis returned 0.10% U3O8 (MP005, p. 39).
