No thanksTwo high-value uranium exploration projects — the Sampson Lake Project and the Cluff Lake Road Project — covering approximately 823 hectares across the eastern and southwestern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.
The Sampson Lake Property adds two high-value exploration projects to Kirkstone Metals Corp.'s portfolio of Athabasca Basin assets. Acquired through a share purchase agreement with Samson Metals Corp., the property comprises two separate mineral claim packages totalling approximately 823 hectares across two prospective regions of northern Saskatchewan.
The Sampson Lake Project is situated in the eastern Athabasca Basin, directly contiguous to Uranium Energy Corp's West Bear property, and features a major +10 km linear electromagnetic anomaly associated with a northeast-trending regional structure. The Cluff Lake Road (CLR) Project covers approximately 531 hectares in the southwestern Athabasca Basin and is considered drill-ready, with multiple classic unconformity-style uranium targets defined by geophysical surveys.
Sampson Lake Project — Located in the eastern Athabasca Basin, the Sampson Lake Project is contiguous to Uranium Energy Corp's West Bear property. Historic exploration has identified a major +10 km linear electromagnetic anomaly associated with a northeast-trending regional structure. The southern end of the anomaly lies along the southern boundary of the Mitchell property, with ground EM also highlighting linear splay structures trending well into the property.
Cluff Lake Road (CLR) Project — Covering approximately 531 hectares in the southwestern Athabasca Basin, the CLR Project is 5 km east of the Cluff Lake Road (Highway 955), which leads to the historic Cluff Lake Mine — producer of approximately 62,000,000 lbs of yellowcake uranium. The CLR Project adjoins the eastern border of Fission 3.0's Patterson Lake North Project and is considered drill-ready with multiple classic unconformity-style targets.
Both projects benefit from established access and proximity to major regional infrastructure, supporting efficient and cost-effective exploration operations.
The Cluff Lake Road Project has excellent road access, situated 5 km east of Highway 955 — the main route connecting northern Saskatchewan mining operations.
Both projects are in northern Saskatchewan's established uranium belt, benefiting from the region's long history of exploration and mining support services.
Proximity to Uranium Energy Corp (Sampson Lake) and Fission 3.0 (CLR) provides a well-explored district context and established logistical networks.
The CLR Project has a well-documented exploration history establishing clear, drill-ready unconformity-style uranium targets through progressive geophysical programs.
Zadar Ventures Ltd. completed both a DC Resistivity Geophysical Survey and a Radon Cup Survey at the CLR Project, defining the primary exploration target: a resistive anomaly approximately 4 km long trending generally north–south, concurrent with radon gas anomalies — a uranium decay product and key pathfinder at unconformity deposits.
A 842.5 line-kilometre ground magnetic survey provided a detailed understanding of local geology at the CLR Project, including faults and contacts that further refine the structural framework hosting the primary exploration targets.
Kirkstone Metals Corp. entered into a share purchase agreement with Samson Metals Corp. to acquire both the Sampson Lake Project and the Cluff Lake Road Project, adding approximately 823 hectares of prospective Athabasca Basin uranium ground to the Company's portfolio.
