Drilling Underway at Geiger's Hook Project in the Athabasca

BEEP · Price

Executive Summary

  • Geiger Energy Corp. has commenced a winter drilling program at its 100 % owned Hook Project in Saskatchewan, targeting approximately 3,000 m in 8‑15 holes.
  • The initial focus will be on the high‑grade ACKIO discovery and the TT target area, with additional prospective zones (NES, Westside, TAB) slated for testing pending early results.
  • The program aims to expand known uranium pods, test outboard alteration trends, and potentially identify new mineralized zones to increase the scale of the Hook Project.

Key Details

  • Program Scope: ~3,000 m of core drilling planned using two drill rigs during the 2026 winter season.
  • Target Count: 8‑15 drill holes, contingent on early outcomes.
  • Primary Targets:
  • ACKIO: Expand pods 1 and 7 for high‑grade lenses; test ~500 m along the main trend; evaluate eastward sub‑parallel targets within the synform structure.
  • TT Area: Located ~5.5 km SW of ACKIO; historical holes (HK24‑016, ‑017, ‑021‑023) intersected 30–145 m of clay alteration. Planned 3‑5 holes will drill below this envelope to hit the base of the alteration system and assess strike extent.
  • Secondary Targets (contingent): NES, Westside, TAB – all situated on magnetic lows with strong gravity anomalies and favorable alteration/geochemical signatures from 2024 drilling.
  • Geological Context: Both ACKIO and TT lie within a fertile uranium district characterized by hydrothermal alteration, magnetic/gravity lows, and historic high‑grade discoveries (e.g., Atha’s GMZ prospect).
  • Objective: Identify additional uranium zones to augment the known ACKIO discovery, thereby building scale and enhancing overall project potential.
  • Qualified Person: Rebecca Hunter, P.Geo, President & CEO, reviewed and approved all technical information per NI 43‑101 standards.
