F3 Uranium (TSXV:FUU) released its final assay results from the autumn 2023 drill program at its Patterson Lake North property in Saskatchewan.
The prospective junior uranium stock has also completed a technical report for its Patterson Lake North (PLN) Project, including the PLN, Broach and Minto properties, under NI 43-101standards.
The company’s 100-per-cent-owned Patterson Lake North property is in the uranium-rich Athabasca Basin near Fission Uranium’s Triple R and NexGen Energy’s Arrow high-grade deposits.
Highlights
PLN23-110 returned 2.0m of 42.4 per cent U3O8 from 226.0m to 228.0m, including 1.5m averaging 55.4 per cent U3O8 with a highest grade of 66.8 per cent U3O8 in a single 0.5m sample.
PLN23-112, drilled from line 060S returned 11.5m averaging 2.00 per cent U3O8 from 229.0m to 240.5m including 3.5m averaging 4.24 per cent U3O8.
Leadership’s take
In a news release, the company’s VP Exploration, Sam Hartmann said, “PLN23-110 returned ultra-high-grade assays, including the highest assay to date – 66.8 per cent U3O8 on section 015S, which remains open in the up-dip direction. At the B1 area, where we initially targeted the B1 EM conductor, significant alteration in sandstone and basement rocks was encountered and we are pleased to receive final geochemistry supporting our decision to drill a wide fence with four drill holes across approximately 250m of geology. Anomalous basement uranium values were intersected, notably in PLN23-105 with up to 137 ppm uranium; values of greater than 100 ppm uranium have previously only been encountered in PLN14-019 and immediately surrounding holes, as well as within the JR Zone itself.”
