The infill results released exhibit wider areas of uranium mineralization, such as 39mt with a weighted average of 0.116% U3O8 (128ft grading 2.319 lbs/t U3O8), 47mt with a weighted average of 0.063% U3O8 (154.2ft grading 1.258 lbs/t U3O8), 14mt with a weighted average of 0.042% U3O8 (45.9ft grading 0.841 lbs/t U3O8) and 11mt with a weighted average of 0.071% U3O8 (36.1ft grading 1.426 lbs/t U3O8).
The company said that these results continue to demonstrate that the Colibri 2 and 3 uranium deposit has the potential to grow into a larger resource particularly along strike and towards the northern part of the initial radiometric anomaly. These results are higher grades than the average grade of the resource estimated by Mineral Corporation.
Core samples have been crushed and representative samples analyzed for Uranium (U) abundance and a suite of 40 elements. The necessary analytical quality control and assurance has been completed by insertion of reference material, duplicate samples and blank material.
After crushing, the core is placed in sealed bags and shipped to the CIMM’s preparation laboratories in Juliaca. Following the preparation stage, the sample pulps are sent to analytical laboratories in Lima.
CIMM Peru is an ISO certified assay laboratory. The program is designed to include a comprehensive assay quality control routine comprising the systematic use of standards, blanks and field duplicate samples. Secondary laboratories are used for check assaying.
