CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. Company Data
| Introduction
| Projects in Hand
| Management
CanAlaska Uranium holds interests in approximately 214,000 hectares (530,000 acres), in Canada's Athabasca basin – the Saudi Arabia of uranium. CanAlaska's strategic properties have previously received major funding by international mining companies Cameco, Denison and De Beers, and Japanese and Korean partners. Exploration programs totaling $5 million in each of 2017 and 2018 by Cameco at CanAlaska's West McArthur Property discovered high-grade uranium mineralization close to Cameco's new Fox Lake uranium deposit. CanAlaska is focused on advancing this high-grade discovery. CanAlaska's project generator business model provides investors with multiple discovery and marketing opportunities through recent work on its uranium and sulphide nickel projects. Demand for Uranium is predicted to soar amid dwindling supplies. “CanAlaska has a new high-grade uranium discovery at our West McArthur project, and we have successfully mapped the controlling structures and extended target areas which we believe can host a Tier 1 uranium deposit. We have capitalizing on the demand for energy metals with the purchase of the Manibridge nickel mine and its multiple un-developed nickel zones as well as our success drilling high-grade (9%) sulphide nickel just north of the Manibridge mine." Peter Dasler, President (January 18, 2021) West McArthur Uranium Project, Saskatchewan (Grid 5: A Tier 1 Discovery in CanAlaska's Sights) Project Overview
CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. is focused on a series of uranium discoveries on its West McArthur Project in Canada's Athabasca Basin. The Company operates a Joint Venture project with Cameco Corp. Ten reconnaissance drill holes, spaced over 1.7km (one mile), identified multiple uranium zones and targets. Capping these targets is one of the largest mineralized alteration halos in the eastern Athabasca and at Grid 5 CanAlaska now has evidence for multiple mineralized horizons. Grid 5 Target Area is located 15 kilometres from Cameco's McArthur River Uranium Mine, the biggest-richest uranium mine in the world. Drilling in summer 2019 focused on the centre of this large target and produced multiple uranium intersections leading to high-grade mineralization (7.95% U3O8) in the final drill hole of the season. Field work in 2020, highlighted the strength of the uranium mineralizing system in this area, as well as further hydrothermal alteration in reconnaissance drill holes located on trend to the south. Here, the key conductive horizons coalesce, along with strong structural deformation. Summer drilling is planned for both target areas. Advanced Projects for Joint Venture: Uranium, Nickel, Copper & Diamonds
