Baselode Energy encounters shallow radioactivity; extends uranium mineralization at Hook project
–News Direct–
Baselode Energy Corp CEO James Sykes joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with an update on the diamond drilling program on the ACKIO high-grade uranium zone at the Hook project in Saskatchewan.
Sykes said the drilling has extended mineralization in Pod 7 by about 50 meters from the previous model, showing great promise. Notably, high levels of radioactivity, exceeding 10,000 counts per second, suggest the potential for higher-grade uranium mineralization.
Sykes explained that higher counts often correlate with higher uranium concentrations, indicating significant potential for tonnage growth. The shallow nature of the radioactivity findings was highlighted as a positive factor, making the prospect more conducive to cost-effective open-pit mining operations.
