Standard Uranium intersects radioactivity at Davidson River as summer drill program advances

Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s ongoing summer drill program at its flagship Davidson River Project in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin. Drilling commenced on June 1, with approximately 900 metres completed to date across two active drill holes targeting the Bronco and Thunderbird corridors. The first hole of the campaign, DR-26-040, intersected a total of three metres of anomalous radioactivity exceeding 300 counts per second (cps), including peak readings of 540, 780, and 1,650 cps between 464 and 466 metres depth. Hillacre noted that both drill holes have encountered strongly graphitic basement structures accompanied by significant hydrothermal alteration, including hematite and clay, geological features commonly associated with uranium mineralization in the Athabasca Basin. The anomalous radioactivity identified in DR-26-040 is linked to brittle reactivated structures along th...
