F3 Uranium Corp has announced significant drill results from their PLN Property's JR Zone. Drillhole PLN24-176 yielded exceptional uranium mineralization, returning 7.5m of 30.9% U3O8, including an ultra-high grade core of 4.5m at 50.1% U3O8. The mineralization was found at a shallow vertical depth of 190m below surface. The hole was positioned 14m up-dip of PLN24-137, which previously returned 15.0m of 3.2% U3O8. These results highlight the importance of tightly spaced drilling in high-grade basement hosted structurally controlled uranium deposits.

F3 Uranium Corp ha annunciato risultati significativi dai perforazioni nella zona JR del loro proprietà PLN. Il foro di perforazione PLN24-176 ha restituito una mineralizzazione di uranio eccezionale, con 7.5m di 30.9% U3O8, inclusa una parte centrale di qualità ultra-alta di 4.5m a 50.1% U3O8. La mineralizzazione è stata trovata a una profondità verticale superficiale di 190m. Il foro è stato posizionato 14m sopra PLN24-137, che in precedenza aveva restituito 15.0m di 3.2% U3O8. Questi risultati evidenziano l'importanza delle perforazioni a bassa distanza in depositi di uranio controllati strutturalmente ad alta legge, ospitati in rocce di fondo.

Estos resultados destacan la importancia de perforaciones de cercanía en depósitos de uranio controlados estructuralmente de alta ley.

F3 Uranium Corp는 PLN 자산의 JR 구역에서 중요한 시추 결과를 발표했습니다. 시추홀 PLN24-176은 뛰어난 우라늄 광물화를 나타내며, 30.9% U3O8의 7.5m을 반환했으며, 그 중 초고품위 핵심 부분은 50.1% U3O8의 4.5m입니다. 이 광물화는 지표면에서 수직 깊이 190m에서 발견되었습니다. 이 홀은 PLN24-137의 14m 위쪽에 위치했으며, 그 홀은 이전에 3.2% U3O8의 15.0m을 반환했습니다. 이러한 결과는 고품위 기저암 숙주 구조 제어 우라늄 매장지에서 밀접한 간격으로 시추하는 것의 중요성을 강조합니다.

Le trou de forage PLN24-176 a révélé une minéralisation d'uranium exceptionnelle, avec 7.5m de 30.9% U3O8, incluant un cœur à ultra-haute teneur de 4.5m à 50.1% U3O8. La minéralisation a été trouvée à une profondeur verticale peu profonde de 190m sous la surface. Le trou était situé à 14m au-dessus de PLN24-137, qui avait auparavant retourné 15.0m de 3.2% U3O8. Ces résultats soulignent l'importance d'un forage étroit dans des dépôts d'uranium à haute teneur, contrôlés structurellement, dans les roches de substrat.

Der Bohrloch PLN24-176 lieferte außergewöhnliche Uranmineralisierung mit 7.5m bei 30.9% U3O8, einschließlich eines ultra-hochgradigen Kerns von 4.5m bei 50.1% U3O8. Die Mineralisierung wurde in einer geringen vertikalen Tiefe von 190m unter der Oberfläche gefunden. Das Loch wurde 14m oberhalb von PLN24-137 positioniert, das zuvor 15.0m bei 3.2% U3O8 zurückgegeben hatte. Diese Ergebnisse unterstreichen die Bedeutung von eng beabstandeten Bohrungen in hochgradigen, strukturkontrollierten Uranlagerstätten im Grundgebirge.

  • None.

Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 3, 2024) - F3 Uranium Corp. (TSV: FUU) (OTCQB: FUUFF) ("F3" or "the Company") is pleased to announce rush assay results for drillhole PLN24-176 (see NR September 10, 2024) of the ongoing 2024 drill program on the PLN Property which returned 7.5m of 30.9% U3O8, including an ultra-high grade core with 4.5m of 50.1% U3O8.

Sam Hartmann, Vice President Exploration, commented:

"PLN24-176 represents the best hole drilled to date at the JR Zone in terms of grade thickness, including a true width assay interval of 4.5m of 50.1% U3O8, starting at a shallow vertical depth of only 190m below surface. This drillhole was collared approximately 14m up-dip of PLN24-137 which returned 15.0m of 3.2% U3O8, including a high grade 2.5m interval averaging 18.6% U3O8 (See NR July 30, 2024). These results from PLN24-176 emphasize the need for tightly spaced drilling in these high grade basement hosted structurally controlled uranium deposits, which can often result in opening up additional targeting areas for high grade mineralization; in this case in the up-dip direction."

JR Zone Assay Highlight:

PLN24-176 (line 035S):

  • 7.5m @ 30.9% U3O8 (196.0m to 203.5), including:
  • 5.5m @ 42.2% U3O8 (197.0m to 202.5m), further including:
  • 4.5m @ 50.1% U3O8 (197.5m to 202.0m)

Assay composite parameters:
1. Minimum Thickness of 0.5 m
2. Assay Grade Cut-Off: 0.05% U3O8 (weight %)
3. Maximum Internal Dilution: 2.0 m

Composited weight % U3O8 mineralized intervals are summarized in Table 1. Samples from the drill core are split in half sections on site. Where possible, samples are standardized at 0.5m down-hole intervals. One-half of the split sample is sent to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) in Saskatoon, SK while the other half remains on site for reference. Analysis includes a 63 element suite including boron by ICP-OES, uranium by ICP-MS and gold analysis by ICP-OES and/or AAS.

The Company considers uranium mineralization with assay results of greater than 1.0 weight % U3O8 as "high grade" and results greater than 20.0 weight % U3O8 as "ultra-high grade".

All depth measurements reported are down-hole and true thickness are yet to be determined.
