Getting the show back on the road!! That is GREAT news today......Alpha is still fully committed with Noka as a J/V partner......Work will be starting very soon again on Carpenter Lake(this June or early July/14)....Papa Ben Ainsworth is the main man that will continue to run its business as usual(regardless of his son G.Ainsworth going awol on his owm blood).......Nonetheless, a few more obstacles to clear and our Noka will be ready to take off again......Finally we see light again at the end of this tunnel.......GLTA
2014 Exploration Plans and Properties Status:
Carpenter Lake Project ("Carpenter Lake")
Carpenter Lake, presently under option from Noka Resources Inc. ("Noka") lies approximately 85 km west of the past-producing Key Lake mine infrastructure and mill complex. The Carpenter Lake property extends for approximately 25 km along the southern extension of the Cable Bay Shear Zone.
Recent work completed, and work planned by Alpha in 2014 includes:
Radon-in-water and lake sediment geochemical sampling (see Alpha's news release dated May 21, 2014) has outlined several areas of interest for Summer 2014 evaluation. The radon-in-water and lake sediment uranium anomalies found in the 2014 survey are important indicators for locating potential buried uranium mineralization.
A property-wide VTEM airborne survey was completed by Aeroquest Airborne in February 2014. Some of the recently-identified geochemical anomalies lie close to cross-cutting geological structures and conductors interpreted by Condor Geophysics from the VTEM survey.
An airborne gamma spectrometer survey is contracted for execution by Goldak Airborne Surveys in June 2014, or as soon as drier ground conditions allow for better gamma radiation signal response. This airborne gamma survey has the capability to identify radioactive boulders similar to those found on the Patterson Lake South ("PLS") Alpha Minerals Inc.–Fission Uranium Corp. joint venture in 2011, prior to the discovery of high-grade uranium by drilling in late 2012. A boulder prospecting program is planned to follow up on the results of the airborne gamma survey.
A radon-in-soil survey is planned in 2014 for up-ice targets from radon-in-water and lake sediment uranium anomalies.
Alpha is presently earning a 60% interest in Carpenter Lake by incurring exploration expenditures of $1.25 million, after which a joint venture with Noka will commence. Noka and Alpha have engaged Allan Armitage, Ph.D., P. Geol., to produce a NI 43-101 compliant technical report for Carpenter Lake. The recommendations in the technical report will be used to develop drill targets for a Winter 2015 drill program
