Executive Summary

  • Standard Uranium filed a NI 43‑101 technical report on the Corvo Project, co‑prepared by Axiom Exploration and reviewed by qualified persons.
  • The report highlights high‑grade surface uranium mineralization up to 8.10 wt% U₃O₈ at the Manhattan showing, which has not yet been drill tested.
  • Aventis Energy holds a definitive agreement to acquire a 75 % interest in the 12,265‑ha Corvo Project, targeting high‑grade basement‑hosted uranium and potential rare‑earth element (REE) mineralization.

Key Details

  • Technical Report: “Technical Report on the Corvo Property – Northeastern Saskatchewan, Canada,” effective 24 Oct 2025; filed on SEDAR+ and posted on Standard’s website.
  • Qualified Persons: Troy Marfleet, P.Geo. (Axiom) – co‑author & QP; Sean Hillacre, M.Sc., P.Geo. (President & VP Exploration, Standard) – co‑author & QP.

  • Size: 12,265 ha; 75 % acquisition target by Aventis Energy under a definitive agreement.
  • Key Exploration Highlights:
  • Manhattan Showing – surface grab samples up to 8.10 wt% U₃O₈ (highest grade disclosed).
  • Historical drill holes: TL‑79‑3 (0.116 % U₃O₈ over 1.05 m) and TL‑79‑5 (0.065 % U₃O₈ over 0.15 m).
  • Additional historic results: Manhattan showing 1.19–5.98 % U₃O₈; SMDI showing 2052 (0.137 % U₃O₈, 2,300 ppm Th).
  • Additional Potential: Project also prospective for REE mineralization, offering upside beyond uranium.
  • Strategic Context: Proximity to major deposits – 60 km east of Cameco’s McArthur River mine and 45 km NE of Atha Energy’s GMZ.
