The mineralization was identified at PLS13-053 within R390E zone with drill indicated strike length of 30m. The two zones were separated by 4.5m.
The upper zone returned continuous uranium along the 49.5m interval averaging 6.26% uranium with a 6m wide higher grade core averaging 35% uranium.
In addition, the lower zone revealed 16.5m wide interval averaging 2.63% uranium, with 3m higher grade interval averaging 13.19% uranium.
Several additional narrow intervals of weak mineralization were present from 145.0m to 219.5m, the company added.
Drill hole PLS013-053 was collared as a vertical hole, drilled to a depth of 282.6m.
The two neighboring drill holes near PLS13-053 – PLS13-051 and PLS13-038 reported assay results of 53m of 6.57% uranium including 10.5m of 29.26% uranium and 4.92% uranium over 34m, respectively.
Meanwhile, Patterson Lake South property comprising 31,000 hectares is an equal joint venture between Alpha Minerals and Fission Energy. Fission is the operator until 1 April 2014.
