Bedford Metals Completes Satellite Survey at Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project
Bedford Metals Completes Satellite Survey at Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 01, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bedford Metals Corp. (TSX-V: BFM) (the "Company" or "Bedford") is pleased to announce the successful completion and assessment of its VNIR (Visible Near Field Infrared) and SWIR (Shortwave Infrared) satellite investigation at the Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project, just south of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.
貝德福德金屬公司（TSX-V：BFM）高興地宣佈，其VNIR（可見近紅外）和SWIR（短波紅外）衛星調查已在薩斯喀徹溫省Athabasca盆地南部Ubiquity Lake鈾礦項目圓滿完成並評估。
The statistical analysis, conducted by Dr. Neil Pendock, PhD in Applied Mathematics, identified several key indicators for uranium mineralization. The investigation revealed anomalous helium emissions and methane, the latter of which is interpreted as altered clays, particularly illite.
應用數學博士Neil Pendock博士進行的統計分析，確定了鈾礦化的幾個關鍵指標。調查顯示，有異常氦排放和甲烷，後者被解釋爲改變的粘土，特別是伊利石。
At Ubiquity Lake, the principal target zone (TZ1) is a 3.6km northwest-trending fault, striking at an angle roughly 90 degrees to the Cable Shear fault. The satellite survey identified a large but well-defined methane gas anomaly that correlated strongly with the footprint of TZ1. Methane gas is a marker for illite, which forms through hydrothermal alteration – the primary mechanism responsible for uranium deposition in the Athabasca Basin region.
在Ubiquity Lake，主要的目標區域（TZ1）是一個3.6千米向西北趨勢斷層，在一個大約90度的角度上與Cable Shear斷層相交。衛星調查發現一個大而明確的甲烷氣異常，與TZ1的足跡強相關。甲烷氣是伊利石的標記，它通過熱液蝕變形成，這是Athabasca盆地地區鈾沉積的主要機制。
Additionally, the survey revealed multiple highly anomalous helium blooms over TZ1 and other prospective areas, with the greatest intensities near radioactive boulder fields. These boulder fields have been identified and confirmed through multiple prospecting surveys. Like radon gas, helium is a first-order decay product of uranium, and its presence strongly correlates with uranium deposits.
此外，調查還揭示了多個高度異常的氦氣區域，在TZ1和其他有前途的區域，特別是在放射性卵石場附近，氦濃度最大。這些卵石場已通過多次勘探調查確認。氦是鈾的一級衰變產物，其存在強烈相關於鈾礦牀。
Peter Born, President of Bedford, commented, "I am greatly encouraged by the results of our satellite survey at Ubiquity Lake. The identification of these key uranium markers provides us with further confidence in our ability to make a discovery at Ubiquity Lake. These findings will guide our future exploration efforts and help us focus on the most promising targets."
貝德福德總裁Peter Born評論道：“我們在Ubiquity Lake的衛星調查結果讓我非常鼓舞。發現這些關鍵的鈾標誌物爲我們在Ubiquity Lake進行發現提供了進一步的信心。這些發現將指導我們未來的勘探工作，並幫助我們集中精力開發最有前途的目標。”

The Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project, covering 1382 hectares, lies just south of the bottom lip of the Athabasca Basin, adjacent to ALX Uranium's Carpenter Lake Project to the east. Situated near the Cable Bay Shear Zone, parallel to the Virgin River Shear Zone, which hosts Cameco's Centennial uranium deposit, the project holds immense potential. Furthermore, it is located 100 km west of Cameco's past-producing Key Lake uranium mine, underscoring the strategic significance of its location.
Ubiquity Lake鈾礦項目位於阿薩巴斯卡盆地的底部，面積爲1382公頃，毗鄰ALX Uranium的Carpenter Lake項目。該項目位於Cable Bay剪切帶附近，與Virgin River剪切帶平行，該剪切帶容納了Cameco的Centennial鈾礦牀，具有巨大的開發潛力。此外，它距離Cameco曾經的Key Lake鈾礦僅有100公里，突出了其地理位置的戰略重要性。
The Close Lake Uranium Project lies on the eastern side of the Athabasca Basin, adjoining claims held by Cameco Corporation, the largest uranium producer in the world. The claim is approximately 245 hectares and lies within the primary exploration corridor, which hosts the Keys Lake Mine, the Cigar Lake Mine and the McArthur River Mine. Access to the property is done through a network of roads and trails.
該公司的Close Lake鈾項目位於Athabasca盆地的東部，毗鄰全球最大的鈾生產商Cameco Corporation所持有的權利。該權利大約有245公頃，位於主要勘探走廊內，其中包括Keys Lake礦、Cigar Lake礦和McArthur River礦。可以通過一系列道路和小道進入該物業。
