MPVC COMMENCES DRILLING AT NW MANITOBA URANIUM PROJECT
Drilling has commenced at MPVC Inc.'s Northwest Manitoba uranium project which was recently optioned from CanAlaska Uranium Ltd.
Drilling
A diamond drill rig has commenced drilling at the Maguire Lake focus area within the company's Northwest Manitoba project. The drill is targeting anomalies generated by the geophysical (magnetic, electromagnetic, gravity and radiometric), geochemical (AlphaTrack and RadonEx), and prospecting programs. Initially, targets beneath the lake are being tested while winter conditions exist.
In addition, a rotary air blast drill rig is now being mobilized to site. This drill will be focused on rapidly testing shallow targets.
Ground gravity survey
MPVC has now received the results of the ground gravity survey designed to connect the three previously collected blocks of gravity data. This survey has tied together the existing surveys well, and has not only extended previously identified gravity lows thought to potentially reflect alteration zones associated with uranium mineralizing fluids, but has also discovered new gravity lows.The technical information and results reported here have been reviewed by Chad Ulansky, PGeol, a qualified person under National Instrument 43-101, who is responsible for the technical content of this release.
