Roughrider to Start Winter Exploration Program at Genesis

02.02.2015  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - February 02, 2015) - Kivalliq Energy Corp. (TSX VENTURE: KIV) ("Kivalliq") today announced that Roughrider Exploration Ltd. (Roughrider) plans to undertake a fully funded winter exploration program at the Jurgen 1 and Jurgen 2 uranium targets located in the western portion of the Genesis Property, Saskatchewan, Canada.

Kivalliq holds a 100% interest in the 200,677 hectare (495,883 acre) Genesis Property, with Roughrider funding the current exploration program. This highly prospective project is located along the Wollaston-Mudjatik trend extending northeast from Saskatchewan's highly prolific Athabasca Basin. In accordance with the previously disclosed terms of the Option Agreement between Roughrider and Kivalliq, Roughrider has the option to acquire up to an 85% interest in the Genesis Property.

The Jurgen 1 and Jurgen 2 uranium targets are located at the far eastern end of the Collins Bay - Eagle Point lithostructural corridor, on Wellbelove Bay of Wollaston Lake, eastern Athabasca, and across Wollaston Lake from Cameco's Eagle Point uranium mine. The graphitic pelite, arkose, and calc-silicate rocks in the area are cross-cut by several north trending Tabbernor faults. Attention was drawn to the area by anomalous lake sediment samples and a series of linear NE trending airborne electromagnetic (EM) geophysical conductors assumed to represent graphitic horizons in pelitic rocks.

The summer 2014 exploration program included the establishment of preliminary soil grids overlying EM conductors at Jurgen 1 and Jurgen 2 (previously reported; news release December 1, 2014). Enzyme leach analysis of the soils revealed a number of uranium in soil results at or above the 95th percentile proximal to the EM conductors, indicating strong potential drill targets. The anomalous sections of the conductors occur on land and would be amenable to either winter or summer drilling.

A program of roughly 80 line-kilometres of grid geophysics and collection of 550 biogeochemical samples at Jurgen 1 and 2 has been designed to best refine drill targets. Ground magnetic/VLF-EM geophysical surveys and biogeochemical sampling will be carried out on grids emplaced to cover geochemically anomalous portions of the Jurgen 1 and Jurgen 2 conductors highlighted by the 2014 summer program at Genesis. The program is scheduled to be completed in March.
