Uraniumx Reports Anomalous Radioactivity in 300-metre Step-out Holes at Murphy Lake

Athabasca Basin uranium explorer advances Murphy Lake drilling with consistent conductive corridor, awaiting assay confirmation.

Executive Summary
  • UraniumX Discovery Corp. reported preliminary radiometric and geological results from drill holes ML26-017 and ML26-018 at the Murphy Lake Property.
  • Both holes intersected anomalous handheld and downhole gamma readings, alongside graphitic and sulphide-bearing deformation zones.
  • Combined with the first two holes (ML26-015 and ML26-016), all four drill holes have returned zero barren results, confirming a consistent ~300-metre conductive corridor along the Murphy Lake North Trend.
  • Preliminary spectrometer and gamma readings are not a substitute for laboratory assays; assay results for the first four holes are expected in the second half of 2026.
  • The 2026 exploration program is advancing to Target Area 4 to test along strike from historical hole ML22-006, with capital availability and continued positive results as prerequisites for expansion.
Material Impact
  • The release confirms geological continuity and validates the targeting model derived from the company-funded MLEM survey.
  • However, the data remains preliminary (radiometric readings only) and does not yet provide the definitive uranium grades required to re-rate the asset.
  • The market has already priced in the initial pitchblende discovery from early June. The stock has traded sideways to lower since the June 2 announcement, indicating the incremental step-out results are viewed as expected execution rather than a surprise.
  • No immediate change to the capital structure or near-term liquidity is triggered by this release.
