of a statement from a competent person in relation to the inclusion of previously reported rock chip
sampling results of 9,500ppm U3O8 from the Company's licences in the Bir En Nar region, in Mauritania.
Uranium Drilling Completed in Guinea, West Africa - Next Phase of Drilling Being Planned for Mauritania
Murchison United NL (ASX: MUR, AIM: MUU) is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed the
first phase of its uranium exploration program in West Africa, with the 2,050 metre RC drilling programme
at the Company's Firawa Prospect in southern Guinea now completed.
Samples are currently en route to Canada for multi-metal analytical processing. Assay results will be
released to the market when available.
Following the completion of this first drilling programme in West Africa, the Company is also pleased to
advise that it is currently negotiating access to a drilling rig in order to commence a drilling programme
at its licences in the Bir En Nar region in Mauritania.
Depending upon drill rig availability, the Company aims to commence drilling within 2 to 3 months.
Murchison presently holds five uranium exploration permits in Mauritania covering a total area of 7,000km2.
Reprocessed historic airborne radiometric data have indicated a number of prospective uranium anomalies
within these tenements which returned encouraging grades of up to 9,500ppm U3O8. Drilling will initially
focus on the Bir En Nar region.
Please call Mark Reilly with any queries.
