Pike Zone Drillhole WMA079-01 Intersects 8.3 Metres at 24.82% eU3O8; Including 5.5 Metres at 37.09% eU3O8

Rhea-AI Summary

CanAlaska Uranium (TSXV: CVV) has completed its winter drill program at the Pike Zone of the West McArthur project, achieving significant expansion of high-grade uranium mineralization. The highlight was drillhole WMA079-01, which intersected 8.3 metres at 24.82% eU3O8, including 5.5 metres at 37.09% eU3O8 at the unconformity.

The program consisted of 29 unconformity tests, with 22 containing uranium mineralization. The Pike Zone's high-grade footprint has been expanded to a 250-metre strike length and remains open. The Company connected two previously interpreted high-grade pods with additional high-grade uranium mineralization.

A summer drill program is scheduled to commence in June 2025 with three drills targeting approximately 15 additional unconformity intersections. The program will focus on step-outs along the C10S corridor to evaluate additional mineralization zones, with untested areas extending 1,000 metres west and 600 metres east of the Pike Zone.

Pike Zone Unconformity Uranium Mineralization Footprint Expanded to 250 Metres Strike Length and Remains Open

CanAlaska Concludes Winter Drill Program on West McArthur Project; Drilling Scheduled to Resume in June 2025

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan--(Newsfile Corp. - April 22, 2025) - CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: CVV) (OTCQX: CVVUF) (FSE: DH7) ("CanAlaska" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has completed the winter drill program on the Pike Zone at the West McArthur project (the "Project") (Figure 1). During the program, the Company significantly expanded the high-grade footprint of the Pike Zone in the gap area, highlighted by the best drillhole to date on the project, WMA079-01, which intersected 8.3 metres at 24.82% eU₃O₈, including 5.5 metres at 37.09% eU₃O₈ at the unconformity. In addition, the high-grade core of the Pike Zone was expanded to the west and east along strike, most notably in previously reported drill hole WMA076-01 which intersected 14.5 metres at 12.20% eU₃O₈, including 5.0 metres at 34.38% eU₃O₈ at the unconformity (see News Release dated February 5^th, 2025). Importantly, the Company advanced step out drilling along the C10S corridor to the west of the Pike Zone, intersecting additional high-grade uranium, extending the known footprint of unconformity-associated uranium mineralization to approximately 250 metres, which remains completely open.

CanAlaska CEO, Cory Belyk, comments, "Encouraging drill results continue to come from CanAlaska's high-grade Pike Zone uranium discovery on the West McArthur Joint Venture project. This winter, the CanAlaska team has delivered two of the best drillholes to date at Pike Zone, highlighted most recently in drillhole WMA079-01. In addition, the winter drill program has infilled and proven continuity of high-grade uranium mineralization in the centre part of the zone and extended unconformity mineralization to at least 250 metres continuous strike length which remains open in both directions. Results from the winter program are exceptional and provide tantalizing early drill targets for the planned summer drill program starting in June. As in the winter, the CanAlaska team will be focused on definition and expansion of this new high-grade uranium discovery located just 20 kilometres from the giant tier 1 McArthur River uranium mine."

2025 West McArthur Winter Drill Program Complete

The 2025 winter drill program on the West McArthur project is now complete. The program consisted of 29 unconformity tests, 22 of which contained uranium mineralization. The primary objective of the winter program was continued expansion and delineation of the high-grade Pike Zone uranium discovery in three main target areas. During the program, the Company significantly expanded the high-grade footprint of the Pike Zone in the gap area where two previously interpreted high-grade pods are now confirmed to be connected with additional high-grade uranium mineralization. Drillholes WMA079-01, which intersected 8.3 metres at 24.82% eU₃O₈, including 5.5 metres at 37.09% eU₃O₈, and WMA074-04, which intersected 17.6 metres at 9.10% eU₃O₈, including 15.0 metres at 10.53% eU₃O₈, highlight the high-grade mineralization in the gap target area (Figure 2; Figure 3; Figure 4). In addition, the high-grade core of the Pike Zone was expanded to the west and east along strike during the winter drill program, most notably in previously reported drill hole WMA076-01 which intersected 14.5 metres at 12.20% eU₃O₈, including 5.0 metres at 34.38% eU₃O₈ at the unconformity (see News Release dated February 5^th, 2025).

Near the completion of the winter drill season, the Company advanced step out drilling along the C10S corridor to the west of the Pike Zone, intersecting additional high-grade unconformity associated uranium along L70W, representing a 50 metre step out to the west of the previously understood mineralization footprint. Drillholes in this target area, highlighted by WMA095 which intersected 3.4 metres at 1.77% eU₃O₈, including 2.0 metres at 2.36% eU₃O₈, indicate that the hydrothermal mineralizing system remains open to the west along the C10S corridor and highlights the potential for additional mineralized pods along strike. Combined with the results from recently completed drill programs, uranium mineralization has now been intersected over a total strike length of approximately 250 metres at the unconformity. Within that footprint, multiple drill fences outline a 130 metre long high-grade pod, with additional uranium mineralization continuing along strike to the east and west. Uranium mineralization remains open along strike in both directions.

As part of the 2025 exploration program, the Company has completed a ground-based electromagnetic survey to investigate the extension of the C10S corridor toward the southwestern property boundary. Historical EM coverage is being replaced with modern Stepwise Moving Loop Time Domain Electromagnetics, utilizing the same survey design that led to the initial discovery of the Pike Zone. Along trend to the northeast, the C10 corridor is host to CanAlaska's 42 Zone discovery, as well as Cameco and Orano's high-grade Fox Lake uranium deposit (68.1 million pounds uranium at 7.99% U₃O₈ average grade^{1 (refer to "References" below)}). The 15-kilometre-long C10 and C10S corridor are sparsely drill-tested outside of Pike Zone and 42 Zone mineralization areas on the Project. Based on the recent positive results and the proven uranium endowment of the C10 and C10S corridors, the Company believes there is significant potential for discovery of additional unconformity-related high-grade zones of mineralization.

2025 West McArthur Summer Drill Program Plan

Commencing June of 2025, the Company will have three drills active on the West McArthur project to achieve an estimated 15 additional unconformity target intersections. The drill rigs will be focused on continued step outs along the C10S corridor from the Pike Zone to evaluate for additional zones of uranium mineralization. To the west of the Pike Zone, the unconformity target area remains untested for approximately 1,000 metres. To the east of the Pike Zone, the unconformity target area remains untested for approximately 600 metres, where alteration and a fault structure were intersected in the lower sandstone column. In addition, select infill targets within the currently understood footprint of the Pike Zone will be completed during the summer program in support of consideration of a future maiden mineral resource estimate. The Company will continue to optimize unconformity target intersections by continued use of downhole mud-motor deviation technology for pilot holes and directional offcuts to increase drilling efficiency, achieve target intercept accuracy, and to significantly lower drilling costs. Assay results for the drill holes completed during the winter 2025 exploration program are pending.

Drillhole Details - Gap Target Area:

Two drillholes, WMA082-16 and WMA082-17, completed within the approximate 50 metre gap target, have been previously reported (see News Release dated February 5^th, 2025). Eleven additional drillholes were completed in the gap target area during the winter exploration program to confirm connectivity between two previously interpreted high-grade pods, ten of which contained uranium mineralization (Table 1). The lower sandstone column in the gap target area is strongly bleached with limonite alteration extending 70 to 110 metres above the unconformity. Within the lower sandstone column, multiple metre-scale fault zones were intersected and are characterized by broken to blocky core, large intervals of hydrothermal dravitic breccias with localized re-activation, and zones of quartz dissolution. Near the unconformity, the fault zones are associated with strong silicification, desilicification, clay, and sooty pyrite. Unconformity-associated uranium mineralization is characterized by a combination of massive to semi-massive replacement style, blebby, and disseminated mineralization associated with clay, sooty pyrite, and hematite. Basement-hosted uranium mineralization is characterized by a combination of massive to semi-massive, blebby, disseminated, and structurally controlled mineralization associated with hematite, chlorite, and clay alteration (Figure 4). The basement within the gap target area is strongly clay and chlorite altered with localized dravitic-clay veins and multiple re-activated fault zones. Within some drillholes, intervals of localized core loss were recorded within the mineralization due to intense alteration and quartz dissolution.

Drillhole Details - Eastern Extension Target Area:

One drillhole, WMA076-01, completed within the eastern target area has been previously reported (see News Release dated February 5^th, 2025). Eight additional drillholes were completed in the eastern target area during the winter exploration program to attempt to expand uranium mineralization to the east of the high-grade pod, five of which contained uranium mineralization (Table 2). The lower sandstone column in the eastern target area is strongly bleached with limonite alteration extending 80 to 100 metres above the unconformity. Within the lower sandstone column, multiple metre-scale fault zones were intersected and are characterized by broken to blocky core, intervals of hydrothermal dravitic breccias with localized re-activation, and zones of quartz dissolution and clay replacement. Where the fault zones are intersected near the unconformity, they are associated with silicification, desilication, clay, and sooty pyrite. Unconformity-associated uranium mineralization is characterized by blebby and disseminated mineralization associated with clay and sooty pyrite. Basement-hosted uranium mineralization is characterized by blebby, disseminated, and structurally controlled mineralization associated with hematite, chlorite, and clay alteration. The basement within the eastern target area is clay and chlorite altered with re-activated fault zones throughout the graphitic pelite. Within select drillholes, intervals of localized core loss were recorded within the mineralization due to intense alteration and quartz dissolution.

Geochemical Sampling Procedures and Use of Radiometric Equivalent Grades

All drill core samples from the program were shipped to the Saskatchewan Research Council Geoanalytical Laboratories (SRC) in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in secure containment for preparation, processing, and multi-element analysis by ICP-MS and ICP-OES using total (HF:NHO3:HClO4) and partial digestion (HNO3:HCl), boron by fusion, and U₃O₈ wt% assay by ICP-OES using higher grade standards. Assay samples are chosen based on downhole probing radiometric equivalent uranium grades and scintillometer (SPP2 or CT007-M) peaks. Assay sample intervals comprise 0.3 - 0.8 metre continuous half-core split samples over the mineralized intervals. With all assay samples, one half of the split sample is retained and the other sent to the SRC for analysis. The SRC is an ISO/IEC 17025/2005 and Standards Council of Canada certified analytical laboratory. Blanks, standard reference materials, and repeats are inserted into the sample stream at regular intervals by CanAlaska and the SRC in accordance with CanAlaska's quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) procedures. Geochemical assay data are subject to verification procedures by qualified persons employed by CanAlaska prior to disclosure.

During active exploration programs drillholes are radiometrically logged using calibrated downhole GeoVista NGRS and TGGS (Triple GM) gamma probes which collect continuous readings along the length of the drillhole. Preliminary radiometric equivalent uranium grades ("eU₃O₈") are then calculated from the downhole radiometric results. The probe is calibrated using an in-house algorithm calculated from the calibration of the probe at the Saskatchewan Research Council facility in Saskatoon and from the comparison of probe results against previously reported geochemical analyses. At extremely high radiometric equivalent uranium grades, downhole gamma probes may become saturated, resulting in the probe being overwhelmed, which in turn can create difficulties in accurately determining extremely high-grade radiometric equivalent uranium grades, and a cap may be applied to the grade. The equivalent uranium grades are preliminary and are subsequently reported as definitive assay grades following sampling and chemical analysis of the mineralized drill core. In the case where core recovery within a mineralized intersection is poor or non-existent, radiometric grades are considered to be more representative of the mineralized intersection and may be reported in the place of assay grades. Radiometric equivalent probe results are subject to verification procedures by qualified persons employed by CanAlaska prior to disclosure.

All reported depths and intervals are drill hole depths and intervals, unless otherwise noted, and do not represent true thicknesses, which have yet to be determined.
