Hole LE-K-64, the first infill hole of the current season, returned 2.6m at 0.793% eU3O8 including 0.7m at 2.096% eU3O8.
The hole intersected significantly higher grade compared to the current Inferred Resource model grade of 0.133% U3O8 in the area intersected by this hole.
Two more holes will be drilled from the same drill pad during February to further infill this portion of the resource with the aim of upgrading it to the Indicated category at higher than the currently modeled Inferred grade.
Tournigan is continuing to drill and refine the Kuriskova resource model based on all geological and assay data.
