- Quartz-hematite breccias and dravite alteration intersected on Stewart Island
- Sun Dog diamond drill program completed on March 31st, totaling 1,227.1 meters
🔍 What Sets the Sun Dog Project Apart:
The Sun Dog Project, located in the Athabasca Basin, is known for hosting high-grade, Athabasca-style unconformity-related uranium deposits. The recently completed winter 2023 drill program has strengthened the exploration model and extended the known footprint of dravite and clay alteration associated with uranium mineralization in the Haven and Walli target areas.
🚀 Future Plans:
Standard Uranium plans to continue its exploration efforts with a supplementary bedrock mapping and sampling program in Q3 2023, followed by a possible exploration drill program in fall 2023. The company is dedicated to discovering and advancing high-grade uranium deposits within the Athabasca Basin.
🎙️ Sean Hillacre’s Outlook:
Hillacre remains optimistic about the Sun Dog Project’s potential, stating, “The results of this program, coupled with the encouraging results of the inaugural 2022 program, confirm that we have a significant alteration system and structural framework on the property with the ideal conditions for high-grade uranium mineralization.” He adds that the scale and intensity of deformation at Walli and Haven, combined with the alteration types intersected, make it likely that the company will discover even more exciting prospects in the future.
