![]() Many uranium deposits have a degree of disequilibrium, whereby the radioactivity measured in drill holes using traditional gamma methods does not accurately correspond to ore grade, due to the continued decay of uranium daughter products including potassium, thorium, lead and bismuth relative to radium (Ra 226), a significant gamma emitter. The Company owns and operates 2 logging trucks and 5 PFN tools. Any anomalous gamma readings are followed up with Prompt Fission Neutron (PFN) surveys which provide direct and accurate in-situ uranium values eliminating any concerns over disequilibrium. Each hole is logged with electrical and gamma methods upon completion. enCore remains on budget and on schedule to meet its 2023 operational plans and contract delivery commitments."Īll drill holes are 5.625-inch diameter rotary-mud holes. ![]() ![]() We look forward to additional drilling results as we advance the project into development. Paul Goranson, enCore Energy Chief Executive Officer said, "enCore continues to be pleased with the drill results in terms of both grade and extent of mineralization at our Rosita Extension area. Please visit to view Rosita project maps and view the Rosita drill program video at. The Company has expanded the drill program to four drill rigs on site.Delineation drill results have established three distinct mineralized horizons in the sandstone host rock as opposed to only one that was previously identified within the PAA.High-grade mineralization was encountered in 8 holes which have a GT of 0.85 to 1.73.A GT of 0.3 is the established minimum for inclusion in a wellfield for shallow ISR, with 0.45 considered typical ISR ore-grade for shallow deposits Significant mineralization in 59 of 145 holes with Grade Thickness (GT) above 0.3 encountered in 37 holes ("GT" or "Grade Thickness" is defined as the grade multiplied by the thickness of a mineralized intercept).Highlights of the Rosita Extension Project uranium delineation drill program include: The drilling program has confirmed, expanded and upgraded the historic mineralized trends, which will be the initial source of uranium feed for processing at the Rosita Plant. The on-going drilling program is currently concentrating on the Rosita Extension PAA (Production Authorization Area), adjacent to enCore's fully licensed Rosita ISR (In-Situ Recovery) Processing Plant. (" enCore" or the " Company") (TSXV: EU) (OTCQB: ENCUF) today announced continuing positive results from its uranium delineation drilling programs at its 100% owned Rosita Project in South Texas.
