The primary claims are located 9km northwest of Areva’s Midwest Lake deposit (41 million lbs. U3O8) and are on trend with an interpreted East-West alteration corridor that hosts neighboring Fission’s new J-Zone as well as Hathor Exploration’s Roughrider Deposit and their newly discovered Roughrider East Zone.
The detailed helicopter borne VTEM survey to be carried out by Geotech will provide updated magnetic and electromagnetic data of the entire Henday Block Project.
The 100% owned Henday Block property is 1,752 hectares in size. Historic data provides evidence that an electromagnetic conductor stretches east-west across the primary claims and is associated with a favourable magnetic low.
Only one drill hole is known to have been drilled on Purepoint’s Henday property. Hole HLH8-71, drilled by Cogema Resources in 1998, encountered graphitic fault gouge at the bottom of the hole. The depth to basement is locally less than 350mt.
