Searchlight Resources Stakes in the Athabasca Basin
Searchlight Resources (TSXV: SCLT) (OTC Pink: SCLTF) has announced the staking of two new mineral claims in the Eastern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. The claims, MC00019721 and MC00019725, cover 3,902.8 hectares and are located 45 kilometers north of the Cigar Lake Uranium Mine.
The strategic location offers key advantages: proximity to Highway 905 (less than 5km), access to Northern Saskatchewan hydro electrical infrastructure, and borders with Denison Mines Corp. Historical diamond drill holes in adjacent northern claims have shown anomalous uranium and rare earth values.
These claims complement Searchlight's uranium portfolio, which includes the Duddridge Lake Uranium Deposit. This deposit has a historical 43-101 inferred resource of 227,880 tonnes at 2.14 lbs/tonne U3O8, with historic boulder samples showing values of 9.8% U3O8, 1.6% Cu, 0.2% V, 0.2 oz/ton Au, and 7.0 oz/ton Ag.
Searchlight Resources (TSXV: SCLT) (OTC Pink: SCLTF) ha annunciato l'acquisizione di due nuovi diritti minerari nella parte orientale del Bacino di Athabasca, Saskatchewan. I diritti, MC00019721 e MC00019725, coprono 3.902,8 ettari e si trovano a 45 chilometri a nord della miniera di uranio Cigar Lake.
La posizione strategica offre vantaggi chiave: prossimità all'Autostrada 905 (meno di 5 km), accesso alle infrastrutture idroelettriche del Saskatchewan settentrionale e confini con Denison Mines Corp. I fori di perforazione storici nei diritti adiacenti a nord hanno mostrato valori anomali di uranio e terre rare.
Questi diritti completano il portafoglio di uranio di Searchlight, che include il Deposito di Uranio di Duddridge Lake. Questo deposito ha una risorsa storica inferita 43-101 di 227.880 tonnellate a 2,14 lbs/tonnellata di U3O8, con campioni storici di massi che mostrano valori di 9,8% U3O8, 1,6% Cu, 0,2% V, 0,2 oz/ton Au e 7,0 oz/ton Ag.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 17, 2025) - Searchlight Resources Inc. (TSXV: SCLT) (OTC Pink: SCLTF) ("Searchlight" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the staking of two mineral claims in the Eastern Athabasca Basin in Northern Saskatchewan, located approximately 45 kilometres north of the Cigar Lake Uranium Mine, and 5 kilometres west of Highway 905.
During a recent Saskatchewan claim reopening, Searchlight staked claims MC00019721 and MC00019725, covering 3,902.8 hectares within the Athabasca Basin which hosts the highest-grade operating Uranium mines in the world. The claims are less than 5 km west of Highway 905, and the Northern Saskatchewan hydro electrical line to Stony Rapids runs through the claims.
The new claims are bordered on the north, west and east by Denison Mines Corp. and several historical diamond drill holes with anomalous uranium and rare earth values are located on claims to the north (Map 1). Searchlight will soon begin detailed geological evaluation of these new claims, and planning for future exploration.
"These claims align with Searchlight's exploration strategy of generating new critical element projects by staking", stated Stephen Wallace, P. Geo, President and CEO of Searchlight.
These claims are now part of the Searchlight's uranium project portfolio, which includes the Duddridge Lake Uranium Deposit with a historic 43-101 inferred resource estimate of 227,880 tonnes, and a grade of 2.14 lbs/tonne U3O8 (Fission Energy Corp, 2007). Additionally, assays of

Director Resignation
Bruce Fair has resigned as a director of the Company. The Company wishes Mr. Fair well in his future endeavours.
Data Source
The 43-101 technical report completed by Fission Energy Corp, titled "Report on the Duddridge Lake Uranium Property, Northern Saskatchewan, NTS 73O/9", was submitted by Stuart C. Fraser, P. Geol. on June 15, 2007.
The Duddridge Lake Uranium deposit technical report was not commissioned or completed by Searchlight and therefore is being treated as a historical resource estimate under 43-101 disclosure. The historical resource estimate used "inferred mineral resource", which is a category of NI 43-101. As a result, Searchlight considers the historical resource estimate as reliable as well as relevant as it represents a key target for work to be done by Searchlight. Searchlight has not undertaken any independent investigation of the resource estimates, nor has it independently analyzed the results of the previous exploration work in order to verify the resources, and the Company is not treating the historical estimate as a current resource.
Qualified Person
Stephen Wallace, P.Geo., is Searchlight's Qualified Person within the meaning of National Instrument 43-101 and has reviewed and approved the technical information contained in this news release.
