URANIUM: Fission hits 14% U3O8 as R600W zone expands

SASKATCHEWAN – Fission Uranium Corp. of Kelowna, BC, enjoys continuing success as it drills the Triple R deposit at its Patterson Lake South property on the southwest edge of the Athabasca Basin. This time a step out hole in the R600W zone 500 metres west of the deposit has returned 14.84% U₃O₈ over 3.50 metres within a 40.50-metre interval that averaged 2.06% U₃O₈.

And there is more: The R780E zone has been extended by 20 metres down dip (vertically). Drilling there returned 11.57% U₃O₈ over 8.0 metres within 31.00-metre interval that averaged 3.50% U₃O₈.

Ross McElroy, Fission president, COO and chief geologist, likened the mineralization in the R600W zone to that of the large, high grade sections of the Triple R deposit. He called the assays "extremely encouraging."

Core drilling has now traced uranium mineralization at PLS over an east-west strike length of 2.27 km in four separate zones. The mineralization remains open in both directions.
