Uranium Energy (NYSE American: UEC), a U.S.-based uranium mining and exploration company, has released a report on drill results from its Roughrider Project, which is located in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. According to the report, drilling 850 meters northeast of the Roughrider Deposit has intersected drill hole RR-940, the best hole to date outside of the resource area on a parallel trend to Roughrider. The exploration drilling shows grades 6.96% eU3O8over 13.5 meters with a higher-grade subinterval that grades 12.7% eU3O8 over 7.2 meters.In addition, following a new Ambient Noise Tomography (“ANT”) survey conducted in April, which identified new targets along existing exploration corridors, UEC will continue drilling in this area to evaluate the potential for additional resources.
“We have accelerated the pace of project work at Roughrider this summer by utilizing three drills and the results thus far have exceeded our expectations,” said Uranium Energy vice president of exploration, Canada, Chris Hamel in the press release. “We have been able to successfully follow-up on results that Rio Tinto had intersected northeast of Roughrider with the best hole on the project outside the deposit area. We have intersected uranium mineralization in multiple drill holes between the East and Far East Zones, further demonstrating there is likely continuity between these zones. The north exploration corridor is largely untested, and our team, with the help of the ANT survey, has been able to develop priority drill targets along the trend. UEC continues to advance the project on parallel tracks by working on an economic study for the project while also updating the Environmental Assessment baseline work and conducting an aggressive drilling campaign.”
