RE: RE: The Presentation WHEELER RIVER POTENTIAL
The Phoenix discovery at Wheeler represents the first stages of a world-class discovery. The chemical and structural oreforming conditions that deposited the Phoenix mineralization continued over a very long time, measured in millions of years, and is evidence of an extremely large alteration "engine". Deposits with these incredible grades are rare in nature, and have only been documented in two other locations – at McArthur River and at Cigar Lake. Wheeler now joins this elite class of deposits. The Phoenix deposit is located in the hanging wall of a rock unit termed quartzite, which is known to extend for over 18 kilometres on the Wheeler River property. To date, only 1.3 kilometres of this structure on the property has been drill tested. The deposit was discovered by drill testing a ground geophysical anomaly arising from a DC-Resistivity survey carried out in 2007. More surveys of the same type have been carried out recently to the southwest of the current drill area. These studies have identified similar anomalies to that tested by the discovery hole.
