United Uranium Corp. Provides Property and Corporate Update
SASKATOON, SK, April 26, 2012 /CNW/ - United Uranium Corp. (TSXV: UUC) ("United Uranium" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update and summary of its Fort à la Corne (FalC) Property (the Property) in Central Saskatchewan (SK). The FalC Property, is a 50/50 joint venture between Star Uranium and United Uranium Corp.
Property Update
During 2011, APEX Geoscience Ltd. (APEX) was retained by Star Uranium Corp. (Star) to complete an initial review of existing aeromagnetic geophysical data for their Fort à la Corne (FalC) Property (the Property) in Central Saskatchewan (SK). The FalC Property, which is a 50/50 joint venture between Star and United Uranium Corp. (United), is approximately 65 kilometers (km) north-east of Prince Albert, SK. The Property lies over both provincial and privately owned properties totaling approximately 42,874.02 hectares (ha) (105,944.01 acres).
As part of the data review, the existing airborne survey data was reprocessed and interpreted by APEX. Specifically, the airborne geophysical data was evaluated for geophysical targets that could be related to potential kimberlites or related intrusions with a particular emphasis on targets that do not fit the typical Fort à la Corne model for magnetic kimberlites. A total of 23 geophysical anomalies on the FalC Property were selected as being of potential interest for future kimberlite exploration. After ground truthing of the targets was performed early in 2011, a total of 13 targets on the FalC Property and 4 targets on 100% owned Star lands were deemed of sufficient interest for follow-up ground geophysical surveys. Based upon the 17 ground geophysical surveys that were completed during 2011, a total of two moderate to high priority kimberlite targets, along with a couple of lower priority targets, were identified that warrant drill testing during 2012. The required land use permits and water licences for drill testing of all of the priority targets have been applied for. Once received, Star will commission a drilling program to test a minimum of two priority kimberlite targets on the FalC Property and/or the 100% owned Star lands. It is anticipated that drilling will be completed during the 2nd quarter of 2012.
In addition to the kimberlite targets, a strong linear magnetic target was identified during the 2011 ground geophysical exploration program. This target, which may be prospective for gold and/or iron ore, is also in application for drill testing and may be tested during the upcoming kimberlite drill program.
