Azincourt Energy to Undertake High Summer Program on Snegamook Uranium Deposit and Greater Harrier Uranium ProjectJune 11, 2026 8:00 AM
NewsfileVancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 11, 2026) - AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (TSXV: AAZ) (OTCQB: AZURF) ("Azincourt" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that preparations are underway for a late-summer diamond drilling and prospecting program at the Company's Harrier Uranium Project, located in the Central Mineral Belt of Labrador, Canada, which includes the Snegamook Uranium Deposit.About the Harrier ProjectAzincourt's Harrier Project covers 12,200 hectares over five distinct licence groups, representing one of the larger land positions in the Central Mineral Belt. The Harrier Project covers the Snegamook uranium deposit and straddles key uranium-bearing structural corridors directly adjacent to and on trend with Atha Energy's Moran Lake (9.6 Mlbs U3O8 and 11.8 Mlbs V2O5) and Anna Lake (4.9 Mlbs U3O8) deposits, and Paladin Energy's Michelin deposit (127.7 million lbs U3O8) - placing Azincourt at the center of a proven and growing uranium camp. The Harrier Project, with over a dozen known uranium mineralization zones and surface rock samples grading up to 7.48% U3O8 (and >1.0% U3O8 in 10 distinct zones), offers a rare combination of grade, scale, and geological continuity. Notably, only 124 drill holes (19,851 metres total, over half of this on the former Snegamook uranium project area) have ever been completed across the combined property, leaving ample opportunity for new discovery with modern methods.2026 Diamond Drilling ProgramThe diamond drilling program currently being planned will consist of approximately 2,000 m of drilling in 6-10 drill holes to be completed on the Snegamook uranium deposit. The aim of the program is to establish an initial resource estimate based on this drilling and drill data from historical drilling completed by Silver Spruce Resources.Drill, camp, and helicopter services have all been contracted and it is anticipated that the program will commence in mid to late August. In connection with the upcoming field program, the Company has also launched an updated corporate website at www.azincourtenergy.com. The refreshed website is intended to provide investors with improved access to project information, corporate materials, news, and updates as Azincourt advances its uranium exploration strategy in Labrador and Saskatchewan."This late-summer program represents an important step forward for Azincourt as we begin advancing the Snegamook Uranium Deposit and broader Harrier Project in a more systematic way," said Mark Tommasi, CEO of Azincourt Energy. "With drilling, camp and helicopter services now contracted, and with the launch of our updated corporate website, we are focused on improving market visibility while executing a field program designed to confirm historical mineralization, support future resource work, and continue building a pipeline of quality uranium targets in Labrador."Snegamook Deposit The priority for this summer's exploration program is diamond drilling at the Snegamook Uranium Deposit. Historical drilling completed in 2007 and 2008 identified uranium mineralization approximately 1.3 kilometres southeast of the Two Time Zone. Seventeen historical drill holes intersected a 20 to 50-metre-wide section of uranium-bearing, brecciated and altered monzodiorite characterized by moderate to strong chlorite, hematite, and carbonate alteration, which is interpreted to represent a geological setting similar to the Two Time Zone. (Figures 3 and 4)As part of Azincourt's ongoing review of historical exploration data and available core, check sampling was completed during the summer 2025 prospecting program. A 10 cm check sample collected from drill hole SN-08-06 returned a grade of 2.71% U3O8. This sample came from an interval where historical sampling had indicated 0.97% U3O8 / 0.5 m. This was the best mineralized interval from the historical drilling on the Snegamook uranium deposit. A 10 cm check sample collected from SN-08-18, which intersected the uranium showing to the southeast of the Snegamook uranium deposit, returned 0.35% U3O8. These samples confirm the quality of mineralization within the vicinity of the Snegamook uranium deposit and highlight the potential for higher grade lenses within the deposit itself.In 2008, a preliminary resource estimate for the Snegamook uranium deposit was prepared by Silver Spruce Resources, however it was never finalized in a report or filed. Work to be conducted as part of the preliminary 2026 drill program will include:Rehabilitating and examining historical drill core from the Snegamook Uranium Deposit at the Kanairiktok core storage facility;Engaging an independent Qualified Person to examine available core and consult on additional drilling in connection with potential future mineral resource work;Twinning selected historical drill holes to confirm mineralization; andCompleting additional drilling to test the extent of known mineralization.Diamond drilling, historical core review, and the collection of additional confirmatory data are priorities for Azincourt as the Company evaluates the potential preparation of a maiden NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate for the Snegamook Uranium Deposit."Our initial drilling at Snegamook is designed to confirm selected historical mineralized intervals, improve our understanding of the deposit geometry, and test opportunities to expand known mineralization," commented Trevor Perkins, Azincourt Energy's Vice President of Exploration. "In parallel, the broader 2026 field program will continue advancing additional uranium occurrences across Harrier, with the objective of developing a stronger pipeline of drill-ready targets for future programs."2026 Summer Prospecting ProgramIn addition to the planned diamond drilling at Snegamook, Azincourt intends to complete helicopter-supported reconnaissance, prospecting, and ground follow-up across priority areas of the greater Harrier Project. The program will build on the Company's 2025 field work and will focus on advancing known uranium occurrences and untested radiometric anomalies toward drill-ready status.Priority areas include the Brook Showing, where 2025 sampling returned 6.28% U3O8 and previous sampling returned 4.86% U3O8. Follow-up work is expected to include focused ground radiometric surveying, soil sampling, and trenching, where appropriate, to better define the extent of mineralization beneath surrounding cover.Additional areas of interest include uranium showings in the Boiteau Lake area, boulder and outcrop occurrences in the Anomaly 7 area, and the Minisinakwa claim group, where two boulder samples returned 1.02% and 1.79% U3O8 in magnetite-rich metasediment. The source of the mineralized boulders at Minisinakwa remains unknown and will be evaluated as part of future exploration planning."The 2025 field program confirmed that Harrier hosts multiple uranium occurrences that warrant systematic follow-up," commented Mr. Perkins. "A key objective of the 2026 program is to continue advancing these targets so that additional areas may be considered for drilling in future programs."Figure 1: Azincourt land position overlain on the geology of the Central Mineral Belt, Labrador, CanadaTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:

Azincourt Energy Reports Elevated Radioactivity Within Significant Alteration Zone, at the East Preston Uranium Project
Drilling Update Uranium Athabasca Basin
TSX.V: AAZ
http://www.azincourtenergy.com
Mr. Alex Klenman reports:
Alteration zone tracked over 800 meters in the K-Zone
Extensive hydrothermal hematite alteration over 100m thick in hole EP-035
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: AAZ, OTCQB: AZURF), is pleased to provide an update on the ongoing 2022 exploration program at the East Preston uranium project, located in the western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Drilling at the East Preston Project commenced on January 24th, and to date, 3,208 meters has been completed in 13 drill holes. Despite a period of extreme cold weather and its associated problems, two drill rigs are operational on the project. Ten drill holes are complete, one was abandoned, and two are in progress on the G- and K- Zones. Initial progress was reported in a previous press release dated February 14th, 2022.
Drilling continues on the northeast trending G-Zone (Figure 3) where eight holes have been completed and one hole is in progress. Extensive alteration and evidence of east-west cross-cutting structures have been intersected along the southern portion of the zone. EP0030 shows the best alteration on the G-Zone, with an extensive interval of hydrothermal hematite alteration and significant evidence for a steep east-west fault cross-cutting the main northeast trending structure and graphitic lithologies. Additional drilling will be undertaken to evaluate the significance of this alteration and associated cross cutting structure.
On the north-south trending K-Zone (Figure 2), two holes have been completed and one is in progress, with one hole lost in a sand filled fault zone at the north end of the zone. Drilling on the K-Zone has intersected extensive hydrothermal hematite alteration in all holes, indicating this alteration zone is at least 800 meters long. Drill hole EP0035 intersected an extensive zone of hydrothermal hematite more than 100 meters thick. Within this zone localized elevated radioactivity identified from both hand-held scintillometers and a downhole gamma probe was also encountered. Analysis of samples from this zone will be sent to the lab to evaluate the significance of the elevated radioactivity in this area. Additional drilling is underway to evaluate the significance of this alteration zone and to follow-up the elevated radioactivity identified.
The Company considers the drilling results to date to be significant, as major uranium discoveries in the Athabasca Basin such as McArthur River, Key Lake, and Millennium were primarily the result of drill testing of strong alteration zones related to conductor features. The identification of strong alteration zones is an important and meaningful step in locating key areas along the conductor trends where more attention is required.
As a consequence of the promising developments many holes have been drilled considerably deeper (to get through alteration and structure intersected) than initially planned and additional holes are being drilled to follow up key results. This means that while the planned overall meterage is expected to be achieved, fewer total holes may be completed and not all zones targeted for this program may be evaluated.
“We are very excited by the results coming in so far” said VP, Exploration, Trevor Perkins. “Both the G- and K-Zones are responding incredibly well, and the team is very excited by what they are seeing in the core. The results show that there is still a good deal of work to be completed in these areas and I can’t wait to see what the follow-up drilling reveals,” continued Mr. Perkins.
“Finding this broad zone of strong alteration is a significant development,” said president and CEO, Alex Klenman. “Alteration features are a crucial guide to locating uranium mineralization. Given what we know about alteration zones and their relationship to some very well-known discoveries, finding this at East Preston is certainly an encouraging development. We will continue to focus on the K-Zone for the time being to get a better idea of the extent of the alteration and the type and level of mineralization present,” continued Mr. Klenman.
The first shipment of core samples from the current drill program is scheduled to be delivered later this week to the SRC Geoanalytical Lab in Saskatoon. The Company expects to receive full suite assay results in early April. Results will be reported once received, reviewed, and verified.
About the Winter 2021-2022 Drill Program
TerraLogic Exploration Inc. is executing the winter 2022 diamond drilling program under the guidance and supervision of Azincourt’s Vice President, Exploration, Trevor Perkins, P.Geo, and Jarrod Brown, M.Sc., P.Geo, Chief Geologist and Project Manager with TerraLogic Exploration. The program is planned for approximately 6,000m of drilling in 30-35 drill holes. Drilling is focused on the A-G and K-H-Q trends, after having commenced in the G-Zone where the 2021 drill program ended. The program continues to evaluate the G-Zone and the K-H-Q trend (Figure 2).
East Preston Targets
The primary target area for the 2022 program continues to be the conductive corridors from the A-Zone through to the G-Zone (A-G Trend) and the K-Zone through to the H and Q-Zones (K-H-Q Trend) (Figures 1 and 2). The selection of these trends is based on a compilation of results from the 2018 through 2020 ground-based EM and gravity surveys, property wide VTEM and magnetic surveys, and the 2019 through 2021 drill programs, the 2020 HLEM survey indicates multiple prospective conductors and structural complexity along these corridors.
The 2019-2021 drilling programs on the A-G Trend confirmed that geophysical conductors comprise structurally disrupted zones that are host to accumulations of graphite, sulphides, and carbonates. Anomalous radioactivity has been demonstrated to exist within these structurally disrupted conductor zones. The 2022 drilling program will target similar structurally disrupted zones prioritized on the presence and strength of corresponding electromagnetic, magnetic and gravity geophysical anomalies.
Permitting and Community Engagement
Permits are in place to complete all the planned work through the winter of 2022. Azincourt Energy continues to be engaged in regular meetings with the Clearwater River Dene Nation and other rights holders to ensure that concerns of the local communities are addressed. Azincourt looks forward to a continued close working relationship with CRDN and other rights holders to ensure that any potential impacts and concerns are addressed and that the communities can benefit from activities in the area through support of local business, employment opportunities, and sponsorship of select community programs and initiatives. Several members of the Clearwater River Dene Nation are directly employed on site or provide support and services to keep the camp and program running.

About East Preston
Azincourt controls a majority >70% interest in the 25,000+ hectare East Preston project as part of a joint venture agreement with Skyharbour Resources (TSX.V: SYH), and Dixie Gold. Three prospective conductive, low magnetic signature corridors have been discovered on the property. The three distinct corridors have a total strike length of over 25 km, each with multiple EM conductor trends identified. Ground prospecting and sampling work completed to date has identified outcrop, soil, biogeochemical and radon anomalies, which are key pathfinder elements for unconformity uranium deposit discovery.
The East Preston Project has multiple long linear conductors with flexural changes in orientation and offset breaks in the vicinity of interpreted fault lineaments – classic targets for basement-hosted unconformity uranium deposits. These are not just simple basement conductors; they are clearly upgraded/enhanced prospectivity targets because of the structural complexity.
The targets are basement-hosted unconformity related uranium deposits similar to NexGen’s Arrow deposit and Cameco’s Eagle Point mine. East Preston is near the southern edge of the western Athabasca Basin, where targets are in a near surface environment without Athabasca sandstone cover – therefore they are relatively shallow targets but can have great depth extent when discovered. The project ground is located along a parallel conductive trend between the PLS-Arrow trend and Cameco’s Centennial deposit (Virgin River-Dufferin Lake trend).
Debt Settlement Revision
The Company also announces that it has revised the terms of the agreement with an arms-length creditor, announced on January 13, 2022, in which the Company proposed to settle outstanding indebtedness totaling $250,000. The Company will now settle the indebtedness through the issuance of 4,166,666 common shares at a deemed price of $0.06 per share. The indebtedness relates to professional services rendered to the Company. The shares issued in connection with the settlement will be subject to a four-month-and-one-day statutory hold period in accordance with applicable securities laws.

$AZURF Azincourt Energy Completes Radiometric Survey – Updates Plans for the East Preston Uranium Project
Press Release | 09/07/2021
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 07, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: AAZ, OTC: AZURF), is pleased to report the completion of the airborne radiometric survey and provide an update on preparations for the upcoming 2021-2022 drill program at the East Preston uranium project, located in the western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada.
The primary target area for the 2021-2022 program continues to be the conductive corridor from the A-Zone through to the G-Zone (Figures 1 and 2). The selection of this trend is based on a compilation of results from the 2018 through 2020 ground-based EM and gravity surveys, property wide VTEM and magnetic surveys, and the 2019 through 2021 drill programs. The 2020 HLEM survey completed in December indicates multiple prospective conductors and structural complexity along the eastern edge of this corridor.
Airborne Radiometric Survey Complete
Terralogic Exploration Inc. was contracted to facilitate an airborne radiometric survey over the previously unsurveyed southern portion of the property and conduct field investigations of resulting anomalies. Special Project Inc. (SPI) of Calgary, Alberta conducted the survey using a fixed wing aircraft to complete the airborne radiometric survey, which consisted of 2,514 km of survey lines flown at a low minimum altitude and 50 m line spacing to ensure good data collection and a high survey resolution. The survey commenced on August 4th and was completed by August 14th. Preliminary results have been received (Figure 3) and ground-based follow-up of identified anomalies is currently underway.
An airborne radiometric survey uses a gamma ray scintillometer mounted on an airborne platform to measure and map the natural radiation emitted by the rocks and soil the aircraft is flying over. Gamma radiation occurs from the natural decay of elements such as uranium, thorium, and potassium. Locations that have a higher radiation signature (anomalies) than the normal values for the surrounding area (background) would then be examined by crews on the ground for the potential presence of radioactive bedrock if there is not much glacial till cover, or boulders in the till that could be traced back to a source. Many uranium deposits in the Athabasca Basin, including the nearby Triple-R deposit, have been found by following trails of radioactive boulders in the glacial till back to their source.
“The radiometric survey coverage has further highlighted the G-zone and the Q-zone to the east, reinforcing our decision to focus on these conductive packages at this stage of the project. I’m eager to see what boots on the ground may yet show based on these results,” said VP, Exploration, Trevor Perkins.
Updated Exploration Plans
The planned early fall diamond drilling program to complete approximately 1,000 meters of drilling remaining from the shortened winter 2021 program has been rescheduled after consultation with local communities and contractors. As a result, this meterage will be used to further expand the upcoming extensive winter drill program. This program will now consist of approximately 7,000 meters in 30-35 drill holes. Preparations are set to begin in early December. Target selection is ongoing and will be refined based on the ground-based follow-up of anomalies identified from the recently completed airborne survey.
“We don’t want our activities to negatively impact traditional activities by members of the local communities in the area at this critical time of year. There are number of concerns, including the impact of this summer’s heightened fire conditions on the environment,” said VP Exploration, Trevor Perkins. “In consideration of this, we made the decision in consultation with the community to push the scheduled 1000 meters out 90 days into an expanded winter program, which is due to commence in December. We are looking forward to the upcoming drill campaign,” continued Mr. Perkins.
“The radiometric survey has successfully increased our potential target inventory at East Preston,” said Alex Klenman, President and CEO. “In addition, in a matter of weeks we’ll be starting the largest drill campaign yet at East Preston. We are heading towards discovery, with all previous work programs contributing critical data and creating what is now a very compelling exploration case. With renewed life in the sector, our timing appears to be really good. The next couple of years could be very exciting for both the Company and our shareholders,” continued Mr. Klenman.
Permits and funding are in place to complete all the planned work through the winter of 2022, and consultations and information sessions with local communities will continue throughout.

Azincourt controls a majority 70% interest in the 25,000+ hectare East Preston project as part of a joint venture agreement with Skyharbour Resources (TSX.V: SYH), and Dixie Gold. Three prospective conductive, low magnetic signature corridors have been discovered on the property. The three distinct corridors have a total strike length of over 25 km, each with multiple EM conductor trends identified. Ground prospecting and sampling work completed to date has identified outcrop, soil, biogeochemical and radon anomalies, which are key pathfinder elements for unconformity uranium deposit discovery.
The East Preston Project has multiple long linear conductors with flexural changes in orientation and offset breaks in the vicinity of interpreted fault lineaments – classic targets for basement-hosted unconformity uranium deposits. These are not just simple basement conductors; they are clearly upgraded/enhanced prospectivity targets because of the structural complexity.
The targets are basement-hosted unconformity related uranium deposits similar to NexGen’s Arrow deposit and Cameco’s Eagle Point mine. East Preston is near the southern edge of the western Athabasca Basin, where targets are in a near surface environment without Athabasca sandstone cover – therefore they are relatively shallow targets but can have great depth extent when discovered. The project ground is located along a parallel conductive trend between the PLS-Arrow trend and Cameco’s Centennial deposit (Virgin River-Dufferin Lake trend).

Azincourt Energy to Begin Road Construction, Sets Drilling Timeline, at East Preston Uranium Project
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 05, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: AAZ, OTC: AZURF), is pleased to provide an additional update on permitting and preparation plans for the 2020 winter diamond drilling program at the 25,000+ hectare East Preston Uranium Project, located 50km southeast of Patterson Lake, in the Western Athabasca Basin, northern Saskatchewan, Canada.
Figure 1: 2020 Drill Targeting – East Preston Uranium Project, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan
A permit for road construction is in place, and weather permitting, road opening into the main exploration camp and drilling areas will be initiated in the next two weeks. The plan calls for the re-opening of approximately 65km of winter road, passing Purepoint Uranium Group’s turnoff to Hook Lake at 15km in, and the Azincourt camp at Bolton Lake Wilderness Lodge, at 55km. A preliminary open to the lodge should be in effect by Christmas, after which an additional 8km of new winter road will be established into the Five Island Lake area (central to the Zone-A and Zone-B targets as referenced in the Company’s Drill Plan news release dated December 4, 2019).
Drill mobilization is then scheduled for January 2020, following receipt of 2020 drill/work permits, which are expected to be received sometime in the next few weeks.
As detailed in the December 4, 2019 Company news release, drill target prioritization has been completed, based on compilation of results from the 2019 winter drill program and 2018 and 2019 ground-based EM & gravity surveys, and property-wide helicopter-borne Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM™ Max) and magnetic surveys.
The proposed $1.2M drill program will focus on prospective targets in the Five Island Lakes area with 2000-2500m (up to 15 holes) of diamond drilling at 8-to-10 pad locations. The Company will continue to provide updates as permitting is received, groundwork commences, and drill mobilization begins over the next few weeks.

About East Preston
Azincourt is currently earning towards 70% interest in the 25,000+ hectare East Preston project as part of a joint venture agreement with Skyharbour Resources (TSX.V: SYH), and Clean Commodities Corp (TSX.V: CLE). Extensive regional exploration work at East Preston was completed in 2013-14, including airborne electromagnetic (VTEM), magnetic and radiometric surveys. Three prospective conductive, low magnetic signature corridors have been discovered on the property. The three distinct corridors have a total strike length of over 25 km, each with multiple EM conductor trends identified. Ground prospecting and sampling work completed to date has identified outcrop, soil, biogeochemical and radon anomalies, which are key pathfinder elements for unconformity uranium deposit discovery.
The Company completed a winter geophysical exploration program in January-February 2018 that generated a significant amount of new drill targets within the previously untested corridors while refining additional targets near previous drilling along the Swoosh corridor.
Ground-truthing work confirmed the airborne conductive trends and more accurately located the conductor axes for future drill testing. The gravity survey identified areas along the conductors with a gravity low signature, which is often associated with alteration, fault/structural disruption and potentially, uranium mineralization. The combination/stacking of positive features has assisted in prioritizing targets.
The Main Grid shows multiple long linear conductors with flexural changes in orientation and offset breaks in the vicinity of interpreted fault lineaments – classic targets for basement-hosted unconformity uranium deposits. These are not just simple basement conductors; but clearly upgraded/enhanced prospectivity targets because of the structural complexity.
The targets are basement-hosted unconformity related uranium deposits similar to NexGen’s Arrow deposit and Cameco’s Eagle Point mine. East Preston is near the southern edge of the western Athabasca Basin, where targets are in a near surface environment without Athabasca sandstone cover – therefore they are relatively shallow targets but can have great depth extent when discovered. The project ground is located along a parallel conductive trend between the PLS-Arrow trend and Cameco’s Centennial deposit (Virgin River-Dufferin Lake trend).
In early 2019 the Company conducted a small initial diamond drill program totaling 552 meters. The results confirmed the prospectivity of the East Preston project, as basement lithologies and graphitic structures intersected at East Preston were found to be very similar and appear to be analogous to the Patterson Lake South-Arrow-Hook Lake/Spitfire uranium deposit host rocks and setting.

Azincourt Energy Confirms Priority Targets for Upcoming Drill Program at East Preston Uranium Project
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the “Company”) (TSX.V: AAZ, OTC: AZURF), is pleased to provide an update on plans for the 2020 winter diamond drilling program at the 25,000+ hectare East Preston Uranium Project, located 50km southeast of Patterson Lake, in the Western Athabasca Basin, northern Saskatchewan, Canada.
Figure 1: 2020 Drill Targets – East Preston Uranium Project
Figure 2: Project Location – Western Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada
Drill target prioritization has now been completed, based on the compilation of results from the 2019 winter drill program, the 2018 and 2019 ground-based EM and gravity surveys, and property-wide helicopter-borne Versatile Time-Domain Electromagnetic (VTEM™ Max) and magnetic surveys.
The upcoming approximately $1.2M drill program will focus on prospective targets in the Five Island Lakes area with 2000-2500m (up to 15 holes) of diamond drilling at 8-to-10 pad locations. The majority of proposed holes will test multiple subparallel EM conductors (A-zone and B-zone conductor corridors), in an area of marked structural disruption. Portions of the A-zone were drilled during the 2019 winter campaign verifying that the conductor hosts significant graphite in strongly deformed (sheared) host rocks that offer both fluid pathways and a reducing host rock conducive to uranium deposition.
Initial drilling is also proposed for the Swoosh zone, a 7+ km long east-west structural lineament with strongly anomalous, spatially consistent geochemical anomalies (lake sediments, radon, soil) and coincident magnetic and gravity geophysical anomalies. Two holes are proposed for this area near the upstream terminus of the geochemical anomalies. This zone is located along strike - approximately 5km southwest of the A-zone.
“East Preston is a large and highly prospective uranium exploration project with a comprehensive inventory of compelling drill targets, and we’re eager to begin testing the target zones,” said President & CEO, Alex Klenman. “Earlier this year a number of factors prevented us from drilling as much as we had planned. The timing of funding, a late start, and the early onset of warmer weather cut short our efforts. However, this upcoming campaign has the benefit of not only adequate funding already in place, but also, we’re significantly ahead of the permitting and preparation process than we were last time. We will test a number of priority targets this time, so we’re excited to get going,” continued Mr. Klenman.
