Purepoint Uranium begins initial drilling at Tabbernor

Executive Summary

• Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. has begun its inaugural 1,500 m drill program at the 100 % owned Tabbernor project in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca basin.
• The program will test five targets across two high‑priority zones within a 60‑km corridor of graphitic conductors identified by extensive airborne and ground geophysics.
• This first‑pass drilling aims to define the district‑scale structural/electromagnetic corridor’s uranium potential and prioritize areas for more focused drilling in future years.

Key Details

• Program Scope: 1,500 m total depth, five drill holes targeting two of three high‑priority areas along a 60‑km EM conductor corridor.
• Project Size: Tabbernor covers >50,000 ha (51,670 ha) and is fully owned by Purepoint.
• Geophysical Context: ~100 km of mapped electromagnetic conductors; targets selected using airborne VTEM, MobileMT, gravity, and soil geochemical anomalies.
• Structural Setting: Project lies on the northern extension of the Tabbernor fault system (TFS), a >1,500‑km crustal shear zone that hosts historic gold mines and aligns with major uranium discoveries in the basin.
• Proximity to Known Deposits: Approximately 40 km south of Cameco’s Eagle Point deposit; adjacent to areas where Canalaska Uranium Ltd. intersected significant mineralization on a neighboring property (Sept 2023).
• Exploration History: Four years of airborne VTEM, MobileMT, gravity surveys and structural mapping identified graphitic conductors with coincident gravity‑low responses—key alteration markers for uranium deposits.
• Objective: Establish baseline drilling results to prioritize future, more intensive drill campaigns within the district‑scale corridor.
• Qualified Person: Scott Frostad, BSc, MASc, PGeo, Vice‑President Exploration (qualified person per NI 43‑101).

“Tabbernor hosts a highly underexplored structural corridor in the basin district with scale, structure and proximity to known mineralization,” said Chris Frostad, President and CEO.
“Our goal is to prioritize areas for more focused drilling in the years ahead.”
