Standard Uranium completes successful first drill program in over 40 years at Corvo Project
from Proactive - Interviews for investors · host Proactive Investors
Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the completion of drilling activities at the company’s Corvo Uranium Project in northeastern Saskatchewan. The inaugural winter drill program was designed to test the Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Tribeca target areas for basement-hosted uranium mineralization. A total of 2,457 metres was drilled across ten holes, with seven intersecting anomalous radioactivity. The project is being advanced under a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy. Across the program, multiple intervals of anomalous radioactivity exceeding 300 counts per second were identified, totaling approximately 23 metres of composite mineralization across all intervals. Radioactivity was hosted within pegmatite, paragneiss, and granitoid orthogneiss units, with structural settings including hydrothermally altered fault zones and quartz-carbonate veining—features consistent with uranium mineral systems in the region. Multiple structural corridors remain open along strike. Geochemical assays from drill core samples are currently pending. Hillacre noted that several priority uranium targets remain along more than 25 kilometres of untested strike length. Additional surface exploration and a second-phase drill program are being planned to follow up on the radioactive intervals and further evaluate regional targets across the project. Importantly, this marks the first drilling at Corvo in more than 40 years, with results confirming critical metal fertility across multiple target areas. Standard Uranium and Aventis Energy will incorporate the findings into their broader exploration strategy as they advance basement-hosted uranium targets across the project. #proactiveinvestors #standarduraniumltd #tsxv #stnd #otcqb #sttdf #mining #uranium #SeanHillacre #CorvoProject #UraniumExploration #SaskatchewanMining #AthabascaBasin #CriticalMinerals #DrillingResults #BasementHosted #Radioactivity #MineralExploration #AventisEnergy #ExplorationUpdate #Geology #ResourceDevelopment #NuclearFuel
