- Exceptional uranium grades up to 85.4% U3O8 confirmed by geochemical assays.
- Significant expansion of mineralization footprint to 250 meters strike length.
- 22 out of 29 drill holes contained uranium mineralization.
CanAlaska Uranium (OTCQX: CVVUF) has reported remarkable geochemical assay results from the winter 2025 drill program at the Pike Zone, part of the West McArthur project. The assays confirmed outstanding uranium grades of up to 85.4% U3O8, with significant intersections such as 8.6 metres at 34.59% U3O8, including 5.5 metres at 53.90% U3O8 in drillhole WMA079-01, and 14.8 metres at 14.71% U3O8, with 5.4 metres at 39.67% U3O8 in drillhole WMA076-01.
The exploration initiative has substantially expanded the high-grade footprint of the Pike Zone, with uranium mineralization now extending approximately 250 meters in strike length, remaining open in multiple directions. This program comprised 29 unconformity tests, with 22 revealing uranium mineralization, indicating a robust hydrothermal mineralizing system with potential for further high-grade pods along the strike.
CEO Cory Belyk stated, "The Pike Zone continues to deliver exceptional uranium grades in assay. The geochemical results from the winter exploration program confirm the very high-grade nature of the mineralization at Pike Zone with uranium grades up to 85.4% U3O8 returned. With continuous mineralization now successfully extended to 250 meters at the unconformity and open in all directions, I look forward to ongoing and future extension-focused drilling programs."
CanAlaska is actively pursuing the summer drill program, targeting additional unconformity intersections to further explore and potentially expand the Pike Zone's mineralization area.
