“This agreement is a major milestone as we expand our footprint in the Athabasca Basin,” Nick Luksha, CEO of Mustang Energy, said in a statement. “The 914W Project offers significant discovery potential”
The 914W Project is located roughly 48 kilometres southwest of Cameco’s (TSX:CCO) Key Lake Operation and lies in an area that has shown promising geological indicators, with uranium occurrences nearby, including those at Scurry Rainbow Zone E1 and Don Lake Trenches.
While some historical exploration has been conducted, much of the property remains underexplored.
Mustang Energy is actively exploring its properties in the Athabasca Basin and has a growing portfolio that includes several key projects in the region. The company is focused on developing uranium and critical mineral assets to capitalize on the strengthening market for these resources.
