F3 Hits 3.0m of 1.19% U3O8 at Tetra Zone
High-grade Athabasca explorer transitions from resource definition to aggressive step-out drilling at the emerging Tetra Zone.

The most recent news (March 31, 2026) reports final assay results from the 2025 Tetra Zone drill program at the Broach Property. Key results include hole PLN25-219A, which returned 13.0m @ 0.28% U3O8, including high-grade sub-intervals of 3.0m @ 1.19% U3O8 and 1.0m @ 1.60% U3O8. These assays confirm the high radioactivity (scintillometer) readings previously reported in November 2025. While some holes (PLN25-220A/221) showed lower grades or were abandoned, the results confirm the continuity of the mineralized system and provide the geological data necessary for the follow-up diamond drill program currently underway.
The news is Routine - Positive. While the grades are significant for an exploration-stage project, they are largely a confirmation of the "strongest radioactivity encountered to date" reported on November 10, 2025, and the preliminary results discussed in January 2026. - Confirmation of Discovery: The assays turn "scintillometer counts" into "actual pounds," validating the Tetra Zone as a legitimate second discovery area 13km from the flagship JR Zone. - Geological Continuity: Extending the mineralized plunge length to 135m is a positive step toward building a second resource, though it remains in the early stages compared to the JR Zone. - Expectation Management: The market likely expected these results given the previous high CPS (counts per second) announcements. The impact is incremental rather than a "game-changer" like the initial JR Zone discovery.
F3 Uranium Corp. is a Canadian explorer focused on the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan. Its flagship project is the Patterson Lake North (PLN) Property. - JR Zone: The primary deposit containing an initial Indicated Mineral Resource of 11.8 million lbs U3O8 at an average grade of 4.39%. This includes a ultra-high-grade core of 10.8 million lbs at 12.23% U3O8. - Tetra Zone: A new discovery located 13km from the JR Zone, currently the primary focus of exploration to expand the project's total resource base.
