F3 Hits 4.35m Off-Scale Mineralization (>65,535 cps) at JR Zone
F3 Uranium Corp (TSV: FUU) (OTCQB: FUUFF) has announced significant scintillometer results from its summer drill program at the JR Zone. The highlight is PLN24-176, which intersected 11.0m of mineralization, including 5.40m of high-grade (>10,000 cps) and 4.35m of off-scale mineralization (>65,535 cps). This hole was drilled to increase confidence in the high-grade continuity of the JR Zone.
The company also reported on exploration efforts, including PLN24-168, which stepped out 700m along strike, and PLN24-175, which tested the B1 shear structure near the Athabasca Unconformity. These results have revealed new target areas for further exploration.
F3 Uranium's Vice President of Exploration, Sam Hartmann, expressed optimism about PLN24-176, expecting it to rank among the top drillholes at JR Zone based on total radioactivity and intercepted width of high-grade mineralization.

Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 10, 2024) - F3 Uranium Corp (TSV: FUU) (OTCQB: FUUFF) ("F3" or "the Company") is pleased to announce scintillometer results from the current summer drill program, including PLN24-176 which was cored in the JR Zone and which returned mineralization over 11.0m, including 5.40m of high grade (>10,000 cps) containing 4.35m of composite off-scale mineralization (>65,535 cps).
Sam Hartmann, Vice President Exploration, commented:
"PLN24-176 was planned to increase confidence and high-grade continuity in the heart of the JR Zone, approximately 15m in the up-dip direction of PLN24-137 (see NR April 1, 2024 and July 20, 2024). Based on total radioactivity and the intercepted width of high grade, we expect this hole to rank near the top of all drillholes at JR. Exploration remains the focus of the program; previously (see NR August 13, 2024) we announced PLN24-168, which stepped out 700m along strike and encountered the altered and strongly graphitic B1 shear well below the Athabasca Unconformity. PLN24-175 was a follow up, testing the same structure 110m up-dip targeting its intersection with the unconformity. This hole intersected strong alteration in the basement; coupled with intense silicification and brecciation observed in the lower Athabasca Sandstone and the lack of graphitic structure in the basement, indications are that the structure dips steeper than presumed. This reveals a new target down-dip from PLN24-175 and an additional hole is planned to test the structure in this area with these prospective signs for nearby mineralization."

Handheld spectrometer composite parameters:
1: Minimum Thickness of 0.5m
2: CPS Cut-Off of 300 counts per second
3: Maximum Internal Dilution of 2.0m
Natural gamma radiation in the drill core that is reported in this news release was measured in counts per second (cps) using a handheld Radiation Solutions RS-125 scintillometer. The Company considers greater than 300 cps on the handheld spectrometer as anomalous, >10,000 cps as high grade and greater than 65,535 cps as off-scale. The reader is cautioned that scintillometer readings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured and should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials. Samples from the drill core are split in half on site and are standardized at 0.5m lengths. One half of the split sample will be submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) in Saskatoon, SK. for lithogeochemical analysis using their "Uranium Package".
All depth measurements reported are down-hole and true thickness are yet to be determined.
