Greenridge Exploration Pinpoints High Priority Uranium Targets with KorrAI’s Advanced Analysis at its Nut Lake Project
Greenridge Exploration has successfully implemented KorrAI's advanced analysis at its Nut Lake Project, revealing significant uranium exploration targets. The 2024 exploration program identified seventeen sample locations with readings exceeding 30,000 cps, including six locations with off-scale radioactivity.
KorrAI's analysis utilized hyperspectral imaging and AI-driven technology to identify 564 Fe-oxide targets, with 120 classified as high-priority. The analysis generated detailed heat-maps showing higher concentrations of predicted outcrops on the eastern half of the Property and notable clusters inland on the western half.
The integration of multiple datasets, including biogeochemical stress anomalies, radiometric anomalies, and known rock and till samples containing U3O8, helped refine exploration targets and validate previous radiometric surveys.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Greenridge Exploration Inc. (“Greenridge” or the “Company”) (CSE: GXP | OTC: GXPLF | FRA: HW3), is pleased to announce the successful implementation of KorrAI Technologies Inc.'s ("KorrAI") advanced analysis at the Company's Nut Lake Project (the "Project"). KorrAI’s hyperspectral imaging and AI-driven analysis continue to play a critical role in enhancing the efficiency and precision of future exploration efforts, leading to actionable targets and advancing Greenridge’s objectives. The Company received significant outcomes, which were achieved through this innovative program with KorrAI (the "Program"). The 2024 exploration program included seventeen (17) sample locations that showed readings greater than 30,000 cps, with six (6) sample locations registering off-scale radioactivity (Please see News Release dated September 17, 2024).
Russell Starr, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “The team continues to integrate KorrAI data with existing datasets to validate high-priority Uranium targets. The 2024 ground exploration results will be used to add an additional layer of analysis to confirm targets for future work programs.”
Key Outcomes of the Collaboration
The geospatial datasets delivered by KorrAI, including iron oxide mapping and AI/ML-driven prospectivity models, were instrumental in validating Greenridge’s exploration targets. Outcrop predictions generated by KorrAI’s Convolutional Neural Network (“CNN”) models identified clean, vegetation-free outcrops, summarized using a hotspot analysis technique to produce an intuitive heat-map (Please see Figure 2). The heat-map revealed significantly higher concentrations of predicted outcrops on the eastern half of the Property and notable clusters inland on the western half. These key findings will allow future exploration programs to allocate resources more effectively.
Detailed Results
KorrAI’s CNN models identified numerous vegetation-free outcrops, summarized in a heat-map highlighting clusters across the Property (Please see Figure 1). While the heatmap indicates the presence of outcrops, it does not assess their quality regarding lichen cover, sediments, boulders, or uranium prospectivity.

Fe-Oxide Target Prioritization
Within the predicted outcrops, Fe-oxide targets were determined using band ratio analysis (Please see red targets in Figure 2). Outcrops were statistically analysed for maximum, minimum, mean, and standard deviation values of Fe-oxide bands. Targets were prioritized as high or medium priority based on desirable characteristics such as high mean values, high maximum values, and low standard deviation. This analysis identified 564 Fe-oxide targets, with 120 deemed high-priority, correlating with hematite alteration associated with uranium mineralization models.

Refined Exploration Targets
KorrAI personnel combined multiple datasets to refine exploration targets (Please see orange targets in Figure 2 and Figure 3). These high-priority target areas were chosen based on proximity (200–300 m) to biogeochemical stress anomalies, radiometric anomalies, and known rock and till samples containing U3O8. These targets also factored in structural features and the presence of aforementioned high-priority Fe-oxide targets. The spatial relationship between stressed vegetation and Fe-oxide targets provided further refinement for underexplored locations, expediting future exploration efforts.

Validation of Existing Data
Confidence in previous radiometric surveys was bolstered by the correlation of biogeochemical stress anomalies with radiometric patterns (Please see Figure 4). These overlaps reinforce the interpretation of radioactive decay’s influence on exploration targets and validate the reliability of prior data.

The integration of KorrAI’s datasets refined Greenridge's exploration strategy, directing efforts toward the most promising targets. This approach not only accelerated fieldwork but also reduced costs, contributing to improved resource allocation and more targeted exploration efforts.
This collaboration demonstrated the value of integrating cutting-edge AI, hyperspectral imaging, and field data for mineral exploration. The outcomes at the Project strengthened Greenridge’s project portfolio and set a new standard for innovation in exploration programs.
Greenridge is committed to leveraging these insights to expand its exploration footprint and achieve continued success in future programs.
