What Hole 080 actually means - from FCU CEO Dev Randhawa, CEO of Fission Uranium (latest blog post on FCU website):
In case you missed the latest press release, we’ve just hit 13.41m composite off-scale in 48.5m mineralization. Superb results in anyone’s books but particularly important for us and here’s why: If you check out the maps on the project page you’ll see that we now have drill holes with wide and robust mineralization traced on-strike over an 855m ENE trending corridor.
855 is a big number. We obviously still have a lot of work to do but before these latest results came through for hole 080, all we knew is that R780E zone was mineralized. Now, with this hole showing similar figures to some of those we’ve seen at R390E zone, the potential of PLS as a high-grade discovery has taken a big step forward.
The full drilling highlights are here:
Multiple zones of basement mineralization from 122.5m – 318.5m
Main Zone – 48.5m (122.5m – 171.0m) wide broad zone of variable radioactivity from weak-to-strong comprised of 4 intervals each separated by narrow intervals of barren rock (1.5m – 2.5m wide) including:
39.0m wide interval (128.0m – 167.0m) of well-developed mineralization including:
13.41m total composite total off-scale (>9999 cps) radioactivity in several discrete intervals including:
7.6m of continuous off-scale (>9999 cps) radioactivity.
Several narrower intervals of mineralized anomalous radioactivity from 201.5m – 318.5m, including:
11.5m wide interval (236.0m – 247.5m) of weak to locally strong radioactivity, including:
0.3m of off-scale (>9999 cps) radioactivity.
Extends the width of the R780E zone to approximately 45m on line 780E.
