Skyharbour Resources
Ltd. (TSX-V: SYH) (OTCQX:
SYHBF) (Frankfurt: SC1P)
(“Skyharbour” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that it has
acquired by low-cost staking 40 new prospective uranium exploration
claims in Northern Saskatchewan, increasing Skyharbour’s total land
package that it has ownership interest in to 614,353 ha (1,518,099
acres) across 36 projects. These new 100% owned claims add 62,690
ha to Skyharbour’s existing holdings in and around the Athabasca
Basin, which is host to the highest-grade uranium deposits in the
world and is consistently ranked as a top mining jurisdiction by
the Fraser Institute. As the Company remains focused on its
co-flagship Russell Lake and Moore projects, these new claims will
become a part of Skyharbour’s prospect generator business as the
Company will seek strategic partners to advance these assets.

Summary of Recently Staked Properties:
Foster Project:
The drill-ready Foster property now consists of
26 claims totaling 21,252 hectares approximately 20 km east of
Cameco's Key Lake operation and adjoining the southwestern end of
Skyharbour's Falcon Project, currently optioned out to North Shore
Uranium Ltd. The Foster claims are situated in the Wollaston Domain
just outside of the currently mapped extent of the Athabasca Basin,
with several small outliers of sandstone located regionally in the
area. The basement geology consists of psammopelite, calc-silicate,
diorite, pelitic gneiss and graphitic pelitic gneiss of the Daly
Lake Group, accompanied by minor felsic orthogneisses.

Skyharbour has acquired these claims both
through staking and the acquisition of additional claims from Eagle
Plains. The claims acquired from Eagle Plains host geology are
favourable for uranium and REE mineralization, with two significant
mineralized areas, including the Great Plains Showing and the Red
October Zone. There are numerous untested coincident geochemical
and geophysical anomalies, many of which are drill-ready, with
significant encouraging exploration to date for pegmatite- and
fault-hosted uranium mineralization. Exploration in the Eagle Lake
area at these claims between 1969 and the early 1980s resulted in
the discovery of the Great Plains Showing. Exploration programs,
including diamond-drilling, intersected intense alteration and
shearing and high Radon-222 values. Notably, pitchblende
mineralization was discovered in veins associated with fault
structures. However, despite recommendations for a comprehensive
follow-up program, further work was never carried out due to
changing uranium market fundamentals. Another mineralized zone, the
Red October Zone, was discovered in 2008 by Eagle Plains and
consists of a 400 m intermittent uranium and REE-mineralized
outcrop within a 1 km coincident soil geochemical and ground
magnetic anomaly. In 2012, the Red October Zone was drill-tested,
with all six holes encountering anomalous uranium and REEs.
Across the broader property package, prospective
graphitic pelitic gneiss packages are exposed at surface. In
addition to the two previously mentioned zones, the Foster project
contains several other uraniferous occurrences, which often also
host elevated REEs and thorium, and with samples collected on the
property returning up to 657 ppm U, 6,644 ppm TREE, and 344 ppm Th.
Significant untested potential exists on the Foster project for
basement-hosted, unconformity-related uranium (“URU”) deposits,
akin to those found further north in the Wollaston Domain (i.e.
Eagle Point, Rabbit Lake, Key Lake and others), as well as for
additional pegmatite-hosted uranium, thorium, and REE
mineralization.
Skyharbour plans to seek a partner company to
option and advance the Foster Project as a part of its prospect
generator business. Eagle Plains will retain a 2% Net Smelter
Return ("NSR") royalty, subject to reduction on certain claims by
underlying NSR agreements.
Horton Project:
The recently acquired Horton project consists
of 3 claims totalling 2,922 ha, located approximately 34 km south
of Cameco’s Rabbit Lake Operation, and 40 km southwest of the
community of Wollaston Lake. The project lies just outside the
Athabasca Basin, and is underlain by prospective Wollaston
Supergroup metasedimentary rocks, including pelitic, psammopelitic,
and graphitic pelitic gneisses similar to those hosting
unconformity-related uranium mineralization at the nearby Eagle
Point Deposit (Cameco’s Rabbit Lake operation).
Horton Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Horton.jpg
The project has seen a limited amount of
historical exploration with most of the work consisting of airborne
and ground geophysical surveys in the late 1960’s and during the
1970’s. The only modern exploration work completed on the property
was an airborne VLF-EM and magnetics survey which partially covered
the property. One mineral occurrence is noted on the property, the
Horton Island U-Th-bearing pegmatite (SMDI 1707). The entire
property is prospective for basement-hosted unconformity-related
uranium deposits as well as pegmatite-hosted U-Th-REE
mineralization.
Lynx Project:
The Lynx property was recently acquired through
staking and consists of two new claims totalling 5,345 ha located
approximately 54 km south of Cameco’s Rabbit Lake Operation, with
Highway 905 running along the eastern edge of the one claim,
providing year-round easy access to the property. The project is
located within 10 km of the edge of the Athabasca Basin within the
Wollaston Domain and is underlain by the highly prospective
Wollaston Supergroup metasedimentary rocks, including psammitic to
psammopeltic, pelitic, and graphitic pelitic gneisses.
Lynx Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Lynx.jpg
Several airborne and ground geophysical surveys
were completed in the area between 1968 and 1979; however, no
modern exploration work has been completed on the project. Despite
its proximity to regional infrastructure, the project is an
early-stage exploration project and remains prospective for
basement-hosted URU mineralization.
Snowbird Project:
The Snowbird project consists of 16 new claims
totalling 29,712 ha and is located about 35 km south of Cameco’s
Centennial Deposit along the Virgin River Shear Zone. The claims
are underlain by basement rocks of the Taltson and Mudjatik
Domains, including Virgin Schist Group and Careen Lake Group
metasedimentary gneisses, catalastites and mylonites of the Virgin
River Shear Zone, and felsic gneisses, granitoids, amphibolites,
and augen gneisses.
Snowbird Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/SKY_Snowbird.jpg
Several modern airborne geophysical surveys
cover portions of the project with prospective EM conductors
trending onto the property, but no modern ground geophysical
surveys or diamond drilling have occurred on the project. The
project is prospective for basement-hosted uranium mineralization,
similar to that hosted at Cameco’s Centennial and Dufferin Lake
Zones along trend to the north.
Orr Project:
The Orr project consists of one claim totalling
5,987 ha located in the northern Athabasca Basin approximately 46
km southeast of the community of Black Lake. The project is
underlain by approximately 160 to 320 m of Athabasca Supergroup
sandstones and conglomerates overlying Mudjatik Domain
metasedimentary and granitoid gneisses. A series of discontinuous
east-to-north-east trending EM conductors have been identified on
the property, which are locally cross-cut by several NNW-trending
regional faults.
Orr Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Orr.jpg
The property has been covered by a variety of
airborne and ground geophysical (including magnetics, EM, gravity,
and radiometric surveys, with the most modern work consisting of
airborne MEGATEM flown in 2006 and an airborne gravity survey in
2007 that covered the western portion of the property. The only
drilling on the property consists of two drill holes, both of which
were in the northeast corner of the property and intersected
granitic rocks. The property remains prospective for both
unconformity- and basement-hosted URU deposits.
Otter Project:
The Otter Project consists of one claim
totalling 4,838 ha located in the northern Athabasca Basin
approximately 41 km southeast of the community of Black Lake. The
project is covered by Athabasca Supergroup sandstones and
conglomerates overlying the Mudjatik Domain metasedimentary and
granitic gneisses. Exploration work on the property includes
airborne and ground EM and magnetics surveys and some prospecting
and geochemical sampling. However, no drilling has been conducted
on the Otter Project to date.
Otter Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Otter.jpg
A 2007 MEGATEM survey covering the project
showed the presence of strongly conductive rocks, potentially
indicative of a graphitic fault zone cut by a NNW-trending magnetic
dyke underlying the property, which remains untested by drilling.
The property is prospective for both unconformity- and
basement-hosted URU deposits.
Pendleton:
The Pendleton Project consists of three newly
acquired mineral claims totalling 3,890 ha located approximately 70
km southeast of Cameco’s Key Lake Operation and 114 km northwest of
the community of Southend. The Pendleton project lies along the
Needle Falls Shear Zone in the eastern Wollaston Domain and Western
Peter Lake Domain. It is underlain by the Wollaston Supergroup
metasedimentary rocks, including psammopelitic, pelitic, and
graphitic pelitic gneisses, as well as mylonitic and cataclastic
rocks of the Needle Falls Shear zone and Archean granitoid
gneisses, diorites, and gabbros of the Johnson River Inlier and
Swan River Complex.
Pendleton Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Pendleton.jpg
The initial exploration work on the project was
conducted in the 1970s and 1980s, consisting of airborne magnetic,
radiometric, and EM surveys, as well as prospecting and geochemical
sampling. Additional modern exploration included an airborne GEOTEM
survey in 2004, ground prospecting and geochemical sampling. A
ground HLEM survey was conducted in 2007, followed by the drilling
of a single drill hole, PL-003. This hole intersected faulted and
sheared graphitic pelitic gneiss, which was anomalous in several
pathfinder elements. The project is prospective for basement-hosted
URU deposits as well as pegmatite-hosted U-Th-REE.
Spence:
The recently staked Spence property consists of
3 non-contiguous claims totalling 2,419 ha and is located
approximately 75 to 85 km south of Cameco’s Rabbit Lake operation,
with Highway 905 located within 1 km of the westernmost claims. The
Spence project is underlain by Wollaston Supergroup metasedimentary
gneisses, including psammopelitic to pelitic gneisses, graphitic
pelitic gneisses adjacent to Archean granitic gneisses in the
Eastern Wollaston Domain.
Spence Project
Map:https://www.skyharbourltd.com/_resources/images/Sky_Spence.jpg
The project has seen significant historical
exploration, including airborne EM, magnetics and radiometrics, as
well as ground magnetics, EM, IP, and gravity surveys, and
prospecting, geological mapping, and geochemical surveying in the
1960s to 1980s, with further exploration carried out in the
mid-1990s. The historical exploration was predominantly focused on
exploring SEDEX-style Pb-Zn mineralization following the discovery
of the historic George Lake Pb-Zn Deposit adjacent to the property.
However, the property is also considered highly prospective for
unconformity-related uranium mineralization. The most recent work
on the property included airborne EM (VTEM and VLF-EM), magnetics,
and radiometrics surveys, flown in 2022 and 2023. The project is
prospective for both SEDEX-style Pb-Zn and basement-hosted URU
mineralization.
