CanAlaska Uranium has reported exceptional results from its winter diamond drill program at the Pike Zone on the West McArthur Joint Venture Project. The highlight is drillhole WMA076-01, which intersected 14.5 metres at 12.20% eU3O8, including 5.0 metres at 34.38% eU3O8, expanding the ultra high-grade footprint by at least 15 metres to the east.
The company is operating three active drills at the Pike Zone, with one focused on eastern step-outs, another on western delineation, and a third evaluating mineralization continuity between high-grade pods. Notable results include WMA094-04 intersecting 4.9 metres at 3.04% eU3O8 and WMA082-16 hitting 4.2 metres at 1.81% eU3O8.
CanAlaska holds an 85.97% ownership in the Project and is sole-funding the 2025 program, which aims to achieve approximately 25 unconformity target intersections. The mineralization remains open on strike, and the project location is 20 km west of Cameco's McArthur River mine site.
CanAlaska Uranium (TSXV: CVV) has initiated its 2025 winter drilling program at the Cree East project, located 35 kilometers northwest of the Key Lake Mine and Mill Complex in the southeastern Athabasca Basin. The program, funded by Nexus Uranium Corp, marks the first drilling at the site in over a decade.
The project will employ one diamond drill to test 6-8 high-priority targets, with initial focus on Target Area B, where previous drilling revealed significant clay alteration, pyrite alteration, and uranium enrichment. The program, expected to last 8-10 weeks, will also explore Areas A, I, and an untested conductor.
The Cree East project has previously seen over $20 million in exploration activity, including multiple geophysical surveys and 91 diamond drillholes since 2006. Under the current agreement, Nexus Uranium could invest up to $19 million in exploration expenditures.
CanAlaska Uranium (CVVUF) has announced aggressive exploration plans for 2025, featuring a $12.5 million drill program at the West McArthur Joint Venture project, focusing on the Pike Zone uranium discovery. The program, starting in January 2025, will deploy three drill rigs for delineation and expansion of the ultra high-grade uranium mineralization.
The Pike Zone's summer 2024 program yielded impressive results, with 11 out of 12 drill holes intersecting uranium mineralization along a 200-meter strike length that remains open in all directions. The company will also conduct exploration at the Cree East uranium project, which is being sole-funded by Nexus Uranium Corp under an option earn-in agreement worth up to $19 million.
CanAlaska currently holds an 85.79% ownership in the West McArthur project and will increase its stake through sole-funding the 2025 program. The company is fully funded to complete its planned exploration programs in 2025.
