Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 6, 2017) - Forum Uranium Corp. (TSXV: FDC) ("Forum") announces the
completion of a ground electro-magnetic (EM) survey and ground gravity geophysical program on its 100% owned Costco property
(formerly the Key Lake Road Project). These surveys, which have identified several areas of interest for future drilling (See
Figures 1 & 2), are part of Forum's continuing efforts to have all its major exploration projects drill ready for the second half
of this year.
The Costco gravity survey was completed on a 100m x 100m spacing for the southern grid, and a 100m x 200m on the northern grid.
New data obtained covers part of a large northeast trending lithostructural unit that parallels the Key Lake structure
approximately 20km to the north. Areas of gravity lows in combination with cross-cutting structures associated with the EM
conductor show potential for basement-hosted uranium mineralization. Forum's technical team is continuing to refine its drill
targets in these areas and on the Highrock property located to the north (Figure 1), where geophysical work was completed earlier
this year (See press release dated April 26, 2017).

The Costco and Highrock projects cover the southern extension of the graphitic conductive unit that hosts the Key Lake deposits,
where over 200 million pounds of uranium were mined by open pit methods at an average grade of 2.3% U3O8 from
1983 to 1997. Regional infrastructure to the properties is excellent with year-round road access, readily available power nearby
and close proximity to Cameco's Key Lake uranium processing facility.
