Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - June 28, 2022) - Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) (OTCQB: PTUUF) ("Purepoint" or the "Company") today announced the commencement of an airborne gravity/magnetic survey over their 100% owned Carson Lake Uranium Project which lies on the north-eastern edge of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada.
The Carson Lake project covers the northeast extension of a major conductive trend that is also present on Purepoint's Red Willow project. The current airborne gravity survey results will help further define north-south trending structures and geologic contacts interpreted from prior magnetic survey results. Interpreted structures that crosscut the conductive trend are considered prospective exploration target areas as structural complexity may have developed and trapped uranium-rich fluids.
Highlights
- Purepoint will be conducting an airborne Gravity Gradiometer, Gravity and Magnetic Survey across the project.
- The survey will cover 390 kilometres of flight at 100 metre spacings.
- Results and interpretations should be complete by early July.
