VANCOUVER, Oct. 2, 2017 /CNW/ - NexGen Energy Ltd. ("NexGen" or the "Company") (TSX:NXE, NYSE:NXE) is pleased to report radioactivity results for 22 holes as part of the on-going summer drilling program on our 100% owned, Rook I property, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.  An additional diamond drill rig was brought into operation to assess the recently discovered South Arrow zone, which is located 400 m south of the Arrow Deposit.

Eight diamond drill rigs are now active at the Arrow Deposit and South Arrow with infill, step-out and exploration drilling underway.  In addition, one sonic drill rig testing subsurface conditions as part of the pre-feasibility geotechnical study has successfully completed its work. Additional geotechnical drilling continues utilizing a diamond drill rig.  Initial geotechnical drilling discovered an interval of semi-massive pitchblende mineralization 130 m northwest and up-dip from the A1 mineral resource domain.

A3 High Grade Domain Infill Drilling

  • Infill hole AR-17-147c3 intersected 79.5 m of total composite mineralization including 17.35 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 114.5 m section (542.0 to 656.5 m). This intersection is the most extensive off-scale radioactivity intersected in the A3 shear to date (see Figure 1).
  • Infill hole AR-17-147c4 intersected 67.5 m of total composite mineralization including 5.45 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 182.0 m section (588.0 to 770.0 m).
  • Infill hole AR-17-155c2 intersected 41.0 m of total composite mineralization including 5.15 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 100.0 m section (486.5 to 586.5 m).

Expansion in the Southwest and Northeast Gaps

In the resource growth areas of the southwest and northeast gaps, broad zones of mineralization including off-scale radioactivity have been intersected throughout (Figure 2).

  • Step-out hole AR-17-129c5 intersected 71.0 m of total composite mineralization including 5.85 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 295.0 m section (616.5 to 911.5 m) in the A2 through A5 shears in the northeast gap.
  • Step-out hole AR-17-156c1 intersected 38.0 m of total composite mineralization including 3.0 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to 30,500 cps) within a 87.0 m section (657.0 to 744.0 m) in the A3 and A4 shears in the southwest gap.
  • Step-out hole AR-17-146c2 intersected 36.0 m of total composite mineralization including 2.55 m of total composite off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) within a 121.0 m section (661.5 to 782.5 m) in the A3 and A4 shears in the southwest gap.

Geotechnical Drilling

Geotechnical drilling testing subsurface conditions as part of the pre-feasibility study has intersected uranium mineralization northwest of the A1 shear indicating the potential for additional shears to the northwest (see Figure 3).

  • Geotechnical hole GAR-17-001 intersected 34.5 m of total composite mineralization including 0.9 m of continuous off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to 54,000 cps) within a 265.5 m section (272.0 to 537.5 m).

Arrow Activities & Financial

  • The eight diamond drill rig summer development and exploration program consisting of an expanded 35,000 m of drilling continues to be fully operational.
  • Multiple advanced technical studies including geotechnical drilling, hydrogeological work, environmental and metallurgy are underway.
  • The Company has cash on hand of approximately $185 million.

Longitudinal sections, a cross section view of GAR-17-001, and drill hole locations are shown in Figures 1 to 4.

Garrett Ainsworth, Vice-President, Exploration and Development, commented: "The summer drill program's objectives of increasing indicated mineral resources through infill, and inferred mineral resources through step-outs continue to be achieved.  An important characteristic of the basement-hosted Arrow Deposit is its high degree of continuity in grade and thickness, which continues to be observed across the Deposit including in the A3 High Grade Domain where we expect a high conversion of inferred to indicated mineral resources.  Expansion is also clearly evident through step-out drilling in the A4 shear, southwest and northeast gaps as well as the potential for a new shear to the northwest of the A1.

Leigh Curyer, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "These latest results which include the most extensive off-scale mineralization seen to date in the A3 shear highlights considerable future drilling is required to determine the full extent of Arrow.  Infill drilling continues to demonstrate the intensity of mineralization often increases which is significant from a mine optimization planning perspective. Further, pre-feasibility study programs incorporating advanced engineering and environmental work is in full flight.  Together, with the increase in drilling focus on the exciting South Arrow Discovery, NexGen is at an exciting stage of development."

Parameters:

  • Maximum internal dilution 2.00 m downhole
  • All depths and intervals are meters downhole, true thicknesses are yet to be determined. Resource modelling in conjunction with an updated mineral resource estimate is required before true thicknesses can be estimated.
  • "Anomalous" means >500 cps (counts per second) total count gamma readings by gamma scintillometer type RS-120
  • "Off-scale" means >10,000 cps (counts per second) total count gamma readings by gamma scintillometer type RS-120
  • Where "Min cps" is <500 cps, this refers to local low radiometric zones within the overall radioactive interval

Technical Information

Natural gamma radiation in drill core reported in this news release was measured in counts per second (cps) using a Radiation Solutions Inc. RS-120 gamma-ray scintillometer. The reader is cautioned that total count gamma readings may not be directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured; they should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive minerals.

Split core samples will be taken systematically, and intervals will be submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) of Saskatoon for analysis. All samples sent to SRC will be analyzed using ICP-MS for trace elements on partial and total digestions, ICP-OES for major and minor elements on a total digestion, and fusion solution of boron by ICP-OES. Mineralized samples are analyzed for U3O8 by ICP-OES and select samples for gold by fire assay. Assay results will be released when received and after stringent internal QA/QC protocols are passed.
