The company has completed the first hole at Arrow, RK-14-21, at 663.0 m and further mineralized zones have been observed at 318.5-319.1m, 517.9-544.5m, and 580.0-584.0m.
NexGen exploration and development vice-president Andrew Browne said that the first hole identified at the Arrow prospect is very encouraging.
"The dominant mineralisation control appears to be entirely structural, as targeted," Browne added.
"The number and widths of structural zones, the depth of mineralisation intersected, and the multiple occurrence of apparently high-grade off-scale zones are all highly encouraging features for future drilling."
The mineralized zones identified have been sampled for chemical analysis, the company said.
NexGen CEO Leigh Curyer said that the rigs will now be focused on Arrow until additional rigs can determined to drill the other 11 western located Rook I target areas.
"As stated last week, this result indicates the potential of this south-western section of the Athabasca Basin in becoming a new prolific uranium district," Curyer added.
