Nexgen Energy Ltd T.NXE

Alternate Symbol(s):  NXE

NexGen Energy Ltd. is a Canadian company focused on delivering clean energy fuel for the future. It is engaged in the acquisition, exploration and evaluation and development of uranium properties in Canada. It is focused on optimally developing the Rook I Project. It has a portfolio of highly prospective projects, including its 100% owned Rook I property that is host to the high-grade Arrow Deposit, South Arrow, Harpoon, Bow, and the Cannon area. The Rook I Project is a development-stage uranium project in Canada. The new underground mine and mill development is located in the uranium-rich district of the southwestern area of the Athabasca Basin, located in Saskatchewan. Arrow is a 100% land-based, basement-hosted, and high-grade uranium discovery. The Rook I Project, host of the Arrow Deposit, which is a development-stage uranium project in Canada and is 100% owned by NexGen Energy Ltd. The Rook I property hosts the Harpoon Discovery located 4.7 km northeast of the Arrow Deposit.

RE:RE:RE:Was that a 100 million lb hole?

RE:RE:RE:Was that a 100 million lb hole?No matter parameters we use it is one crazy hole.  That said i cannot image the resource estimate coming in below 200 million lbs.  Plus it remains wide open.  Could Arrow ultimately contain 400 million lbs. Dont be suprised!

(124 m high, 50 m wide, 50 m thick, 3 specific gravity, 6.35%, do the math).

There are no doubts left as to who has the biggest, best new discovery in the last 25 years in the basin.

 

 

Drilled at a dip angle of -76 degrees, the true width is 30m and vertical extent 120.3m.

So 30m strike * 30m width * 120.3m depth * 6.35% * 2.75 tonnes/m^3 * 2204.62 lbs/tonne = 43mm lbs in hole 62 alone.

Total for A2 ultra high-grade subcore actually drops to 160mm lbs per my estimate. Again this is just for the ultra high grade subcore within the A2 high grade core.  FWIW, I estimate total inventory at a minimum 260mm lbs.

I calculated ore density as follows: 2.4 t/m3 for gneiss and 8.0t/m3 for pitchblende; 93.65% gneiss and 6.35% pitchblende; (93.65%*2.4) + (6.35%*8.0) = 2.7556
