Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 25, 2024) - ALX Resources Corp. (TSXV: AL) (FSE: 6LLN) (OTC: ALXEF) ("ALX" or the "Company") is pleased to announce an update on the 2024 winter drilling program at its 100%-owned Gibbons Creek Uranium Project ("Gibbons Creek", or the "Project") located in the northern Athabasca Basin near the community of Stony Rapids, Saskatchewan. The second and third holes of the planned 6-hole program have intersected narrow intervals of uranium mineralization at or near the unconformity, based upon hand-held scintillometer readings on drill core, downhole gamma probe results, and visual observation of uranium minerals by ALX's geological team.

不列顛哥倫比亞省溫哥華--(Newsfile Corp.-2024 年 3 月 25 日)- ALX 資源公司 (TSXV: AL) (FSE: 6LLN)(場外交易所:ALXEF) (“ALX” 或 “公司”) 很高興地宣佈其100%擁有的Gibbons Creek鈾項目2024年冬季鑽探計劃的最新情況(”Gibbons Creek“,或者”項目“)位於阿薩巴斯卡盆地北部,靠近薩斯喀徹溫省石急流社區。根據鑽芯上的手持閃爍儀讀數、井下伽瑪探測結果以及ALX地質小組對鈾礦物的目視觀察,計劃中的6孔項目的第二和第三個鑽孔在不合格處或附近與鈾礦化間隔較窄。

Hole GC24-02 (180 degree azimuth / -75 degree dip) was drilled at the intersection of east-west and north-northwest faults interpreted from the 2023 ground magnetic survey and intersected fracture-controlled and disseminated blebs of uranium mineralization at 0.8 metres below the unconformity, which was reached at a depth of 108.4 metres. An Exploranium GR-135 handheld scintillometer measured radioactivity of 220 counts per second ("cps") and a Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 downhole gamma probe measured a radiometric peak of 3,321 cps within a 0.6 metre interval of anomalous radioactivity from 108.9 to 109.5 metres. Drill hole GC24-02 represents an approximately 470-metre step-out to the west of ALX's historical hole GC15-03 (0.143% U3O8 assay over 0.23 metres) and was collared approximately 350 metres to the southwest of Eldorado Nuclear's ("Eldorado") 1979 hole GC-15 (1,520 parts per million ("ppm") uranium over 0.13 metres) (see Figure 1).

洞 GC24-02 (180度方位角/傾角-75度)是在2023年地磁調查中解釋的東西向和西北偏北的斷層交匯處鑽探的,在不整合度下方0.8米處穿過裂縫控制和浸染的鈾礦化氣泡,深度爲108.4米。Exploranium GR-135 手持閃爍儀測得的放射性爲每秒 220 個計數(“cps”),而一臺 Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 井下伽瑪探測器在 0.6 米的間隔內測得到 108.9 至 109.5 米的異常放射性間隔內,輻射峯值爲 3,321 cps。GC24-02 鑽孔代表着 ALX 歷史上的 GC15-03 洞(0.23 米以上測量 0.143% 的 U3O8)以西約 470 米的階梯,鑽孔位於埃爾多拉多核電公司(“埃爾多拉多”)1979 年 GC-15 孔(百萬分之1520(“ppm”)鈾的西南方向約 350 米處)(見圖 1)。

Hole GC24-03 (180 degree azimuth / -69 degree dip) was drilled as a 25-metre westward step out of unconformity-related uranium mineralization in hole GC15-03 to test the continuity of an interpreted trend of anomalous uranium mineralization between GC15-03 and historical drill hole GC-15, which are 340 metres apart. Anomalous radioactivity and fracture-controlled uranium mineralization was intersected from 110.0 to 110.9 metres approximately 1.5 metres below the unconformity at 108.5 metres. The Exploranium GR-135 handheld scintillometer measured a peak radioactivity value of 190 cps and the Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 downhole gamma probe measured a radiometric peak of 2,217 cps within the noted anomalous radioactive interval. Uranium mineralization was observed as coatings on fractures in the drill core at 110.2 metres as well as other fractures between 110.0 and 110.9 metres.

洞 GC24-03 (180 度方位角/傾角 -69 度)是在 GC15-03 孔中向西 25 米處鑽探的,目的是測試 GC15-03 與相距 340 米的歷史鑽孔 GC-15 之間解釋的異常鈾礦化趨勢的連續性。異常放射性和裂縫控制的鈾礦化在110.0至110.9米處相交,在108.5米處不整合度下方約1.5米。Exploranium GR-135 手持閃爍儀測得的峯值放射性值爲 190 cps,Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 井下伽瑪探測器測得的輻射峯值爲 2,217 cps,在上述異常放射性間隔內。觀察到鈾礦化是110.2米處鑽芯裂縫的塗層,以及110.0至110.9米之間的其他裂縫。

The 2024 winter drilling program at Gibbons Creek is planned for six holes totaling approximately 1,200 metres to test for unconformity-type and basement-hosted uranium mineralization in the eastern area of the Project. The program is anticipated to continue until the end of March or early April 2024, weather permitting. Weather conditions remain satisfactory for the operation of equipment and personnel and the work is proceeding as scheduled. Proximity to the community and infrastructure of Stony Rapids adds greatly to the efficiency of the exploration program for the procurement of supplies, rentals, fuel, and additional personnel when required.

Gibbons Creek 的 2024 年冬季鑽探計劃開採六個總長約 1,200 米的孔,以測試該項目東部地區是否存在不合格型和地下室承載的鈾礦化。如果天氣允許,該計劃預計將持續到2024年3月底或4月初。天氣狀況仍然令人滿意,設備和人員的運作仍然令人滿意,工作正在按計劃進行。鄰近Stony Rapids的社區和基礎設施,極大地提高了勘探計劃的效率,用於物資採購、租賃、燃料以及在需要時增加人員。

About Gibbons Creek and the 2024 Drilling Program

關於 Gibbons Creek 和 2024 年鑽探計劃

Gibbons Creek consists of eight mineral claims comprising 13,864 hectares (34,258 acres) located along the northern margin of the Athabasca Basin.

吉本斯溪由八個礦產主張組成,佔地13,864公頃(34,258英畝),位於阿薩巴斯卡盆地北緣。

The Project is located in a region that hosts numerous historical uranium occurrences, such as the Black Lake discoveries in several drill holes beginning in 2004, and the historical Nisto Mine, from which 500 tons of ore was shipped in 1950 to the historical Lorado Mill at Uranium City, SK, including 106 tons grading 1.6% U3O8 (Source: Saskatchewan Mineral Deposits Index, #1621). ALX holds an exploration permit for Gibbons Creek, good until October 2025, which allows for up to 20 diamond drill holes totaling approximately 5,000 metres, along with ground-based geophysics, prospecting, and geochemical sampling. Access to Gibbons Creek is via roads and trails that lead from the community of Stony Rapids, SK, which is connected to all-weather Highway 905, thereby creating flexibility for either summer or winter exploration programs. Stony Rapids has readily-available fuel, supplies and accommodations for field personnel, and an airport with daily flights to cities and towns in southern Saskatchewan.

該項目位於歷史上曾發生過許多鈾礦點的地區,例如從2004年開始在幾個鑽孔中發現的黑湖,以及歷史悠久的尼斯托礦,1950年有500噸礦石從該礦石運往位於SK鈾城的歷史悠久的洛拉多工廠,其中106噸鈾品位爲1.6%3O8資料來源:薩斯喀徹溫省礦牀指數,#1621)。ALX 持有 Gibbons Creek 的勘探許可證,有效期至 2025 年 10 月,允許開採多達 20 個總長約 5,000 米的金剛石鑽孔,以及地面地球物理學、勘探和地球化學採樣。通過從南卡羅來納州石急流社區通往吉本斯溪的道路和步道進入,該社區與全天候的905號高速公路相連,從而爲夏季或冬季的探索計劃提供了靈活性。Stony Rapids爲外勤人員提供隨時可用的燃料、補給品和住宿,還有一個每天有航班飛往薩斯喀徹溫省南部城鎮的機場。

Prior to commencement of the 2024 drilling program, ALX carried out a comprehensive review of Gibbons Creek historical exploration data and has integrated that information with the high-resolution magnetic and SGH geochemical surveys completed in November 2023. The historical data and the results of ALX's ground surveys on the 2023 exploration grid show important characteristics of the Project's potential to host uranium mineralization, which is demonstrated by the mineralization found in ALX's 2015 hole GC15-03 (0.13% U3O8 over 0.23 metres from 107.67 metres to 107.90 metres), in Eldorado's 1979 hole GC-15 (0.179% U3O8 over 0.13 metres from 134.11 to 134.24 metres) and in the current 2024 drilling program.

在2024年鑽探計劃開始之前,ALX對吉本斯溪的歷史勘探數據進行了全面審查,並將該信息與2023年11月完成的高分辨率磁學和SGH地球化學調查整合在一起。ALX 在 2023 年勘探網上的地面調查的歷史數據和結果顯示了該項目鈾礦化潛力的重要特徵,ALX 2015 年 GC15-03 孔(0.13% U)中發現的礦化證明了這一點3O8 從 107.67 米到 107.90 米(從 107.67 米到 107.90 米)超過 0.23 米,位於埃爾多拉多 1979 年的 GC-15 洞(0.179% U3O8 超過0.13米(從134.11米到134.24米),目前的鑽探計劃也包括在2024年的鑽探計劃中。
