3/27/2023 0 Comments Fission uranium mines![]() A total of 231 samples will be collected.Īrea C encompasses two discontinuous north-east oriented and segmented airborne EM conductors (VTEM). The survey will cover a single 1.2km long north-east trending EM conductor. A total of 743 samples will be collected.Īrea B is located approximately 2 to 3km north-east of the PL-3B conductors. The upcoming survey will cover 3 parallel interpreted time domain electromagnetic (TDEM) conductors, each discrete conductor ranging in strike length between 1.0km – 1.9km strike length. The Electret Ion Chamber (EIC) a small passive sensor not unlike the film of a camera, recording the decay of the radon gas within a chamber.Īrea A is comprised of a group of 4 main north-east trending EM conductors, including the P元B EM conductor (which is associated with the high-grade “R” zones). Radon is a radioactive gas that occurs as the natural by-product of uranium decay. The survey will comprise primarily samples of measurements of radon in water. Area D: 4.1 km long with three intermittent VTEM conductorsĪn EIC (Electret Ionization Chamber) survey to measure radon, will be conducted by RadonEx Exploration Management, of St Lazare, Quebec.Area B covers EM conductors within Forrest Lake, located immediately to the south of Patterson Lake – all areas are on the PLS property Areas A, B and C cover EM conductors within Patterson Lake. A total of 2,300 samples will be taken from 4 areas covering discrete identified EM conductors.Fission’s use of radon has been instrumental in targeting the first holes at six zones found to date and successfully hitting step outs as large as 390m.Survey has already commenced and is expected to take five to six weeks to complete.Areas to be targeted include a total of ten high priority EM conductors. ![]() 10X expansion of radon survey coverage at PLS.These are now being followed-up with a radon lake water survey. Major structural faults associated with highly conductive graphite bodies are considered to be indicators for uranium deposits. Fission is expanding out from it’s core discovery and has used an airborne VTEM survey to identify several conductors for further investigation. With approximately 20% of the upcoming drilling focusing on exploring new areas of interest, we expect this radon survey to play an important role in targeting and prioritizing new holes.” PLS is a hugely prospective property with a multitude of conductors and just as our understanding of the geology has evolved in the past two exploration programs, so too has our use of Radon survey technology. “ Our lake bottom, winter radon survey and analysis techniques were critical elements in targeting the first strike holes at six of the seven zones and numerous successful step-outs. Ross McElroy, President, COO, and Chief Geologist for Fission, commented, The ten conductors are located in 4 separate areas (Area A, B, C and D) beneath Patterson Lake and Forest Lake.

Since the discovery of the PLS several other companies have set-up shop in the neighbourhood and the region is abuzz with exploration activity. The project was originally a 50/50 joint venture with Alpha Minerals but with the takeover of Alpha, Fission now owns 100%. It is a high-grade uranium discovery on the edge of the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. To date, Fission’s highly successful Radon survey and analysis has been used systematically on only 1 EM conductor (P元B conductor) on a property which hosts over 100 such basement EM conductors.įission’s Patterson Lake South Project (PLS) has been one of the few exploration success stories of the past few years. Fission’s lake bottom technique survey, conducted in the winter beneath the ice, and analysis has proved key in identifying radioactive anomalies and assisting accurate drill targeting in the previous two drill programs at PLS (>86% mineralization hit rate). The survey is following up on ten geophysics-identified basement electromagnetic (EM) conductors. (TSX VENTURE:FCU)(OTCQX:FCUUF)(FRANKFURT:2FU) (“ Fission” or “ the Company“) is pleased to announce it has commenced a new large coverage, $500,000 Radon in lake survey at its 100% owned Patterson Lake South (PLS) property in Canada’s Athabasca Basin.
