Article content

The Phase I exploration program will include a comprehensive radon gas survey over the identified helium blooms (He1 and He2), as well as a 1000m hematite anomaly detected through VNIR (Visible Near Field Infrared) and SWIR (Shortwave Infrared) satellite investigations. Radon gas, like helium, is a decay product of uranium and serves as a pathfinder element for uranium.

The program will be executed in two stages. The initial stage involves deploying gas cups to collect radon gas. In the subsequent recovery stage, the cups will be collected and analyzed. This survey aims to prioritize and refine the exploration targets at Close Lake, setting the stage for subsequent diamond drilling.

Peter Born, President of Bedford, commented, “We are excited to commence the Phase I exploration program at Close Lake. The radon gas survey will provide us with critical data to better understand the subsurface uranium potential and refine our drilling targets. This program underscores our commitment to leveraging advanced exploration techniques to unlock the full potential of our projects.”

The Close Lake Uranium Project lies on the eastern side of the Athabasca Basin, adjoining claims held by Cameco Corporation, the largest uranium producer in the world. The claim is approximately 245 hectares and lies within the primary exploration corridor, which hosts the Keys Lake Mine, the Cigar Lake Mine and the McArthur River Mine. Access to the property is done through a network of roads and trails.

Close Lake Image #2 (1)

The Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project, covering 1382 hectares, lies just south of the bottom lip of the Athabasca Basin, adjacent to ALX Uranium’s Carpenter Lake Project to the east. Situated near the Cable Bay Shear Zone, parallel to the Virgin River Shear Zone, which hosts Cameco’s Centennial uranium deposit, the project holds immense potential. Furthermore, it is located 100 km west of Cameco’s past-producing Key Lake uranium mine, underscoring the strategic significance of its location.

Ubiquity-Location-rev1-April-25-2024-1024x791

The Sheppard Lake Uranium Project, covers an area of approximately 2250 hectares and adjoins the Ubiquity Lake Project to the southeast. The project area is characterized by rocks of the Mudjatik domain, where uranium mineralization is typically basement-hosted, situated within shears or faults, and formed through hydrothermal redistributions of dissolved metals and subsequent redox reactions.
