Athabasca Nuclear Corrects Financing News Release

07.06.2013  |  FSCwire
Cranbrook, British Columbia CANADA, June 07, 2013 /FSC/ - Athabasca Nuclear Corporation (ASC - TSX Venture), ("Athabasca Nuclear"), announces a correction to its news release issued Thursday, June 6, 2013. The news release incorrectly stated that the second tranche closing of $138,000 comprises the final closing of the current equity financing. The financing however remains open to enable management the opportunity to raise the maximum equity financing $600,000 (5,000,000 Units) as originally announced on April 30, 2013. A third and final tranche is expected to close sometime in the coming week.

The Private Placement is comprised of units priced at $0.12 per unit, which consisted of one common share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to acquire one additional common share at a price of $0.20 per share for a period of eighteen months from closing of the offering. The securities are subject to a four-month hold period as required under applicable securities laws. Finder's fees were paid to certain qualified agents and dealers.

The proceeds from the Offering will be used for mineral exploration and development of the Company's uranium exploration properties located in Saskatchewan and for general working capital purposes.


Patterson Lake Area Claims

Athabasca Nuclear is the largest mineral claim holder in the Patterson Lake area and currently controls 391,142 acres of uranium exploration claims along the southwest margin of the Athabasca Basin. The Patterson Lake area has received escalating exploration attention and claim acquisition activity as a result of the exploration results of Alpha Minerals Inc. and Fission Uranium Corp. Alpha and Fission recently released assay results of 29.26% U3O8 over 10.5 metres at a second zone of three zones of mineralization discovered on the property along an EM conductor. Management cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate land are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on Athabasca Nuclear properties.

Athabasca's Patterson Lake area tenure consists of two separate exploration projects: the Preston Lake and the Patterson East. The 206,728 acre Preston Lake project is centered approximately 26 kilometers southeast of the Patterson Lake South uranium discovery area and is directly contiguous to claims held by Fission Uranium Corp. The claims are accessible by road with primary access from the all-weather Highway 955, which runs north through the Patterson Lake South discovery being advanced by Fission Uranium Corp. and Alpha Minerals Inc. through to the former Cluff Lake mine, (> 60M lbs of U3O8 produced). The highway also passes through the nearby UEX-Areva Shea Creek discoveries which are approximately 50 km to the north and are currently under active exploration and development. Extensive in size, the acquired claim package is contiguous to numerous regional operators including Fission Uranium Corp., NexGen Energy Ltd. and Forum Uranium Corp.

The Patterson East claims are located approximately 40 kilometers east of the Patterson Lake South discovery and are contiguous with lands currently held by Areva Resources Canada Ltd and NexGen Energy Ltd. Historic lake sediment sampling on the Patterson East property has returned uranium values in the 6 - 9 ppm range.

In addition to the Patterson Lake area tenures, Athabasca controls five other projects in the Athabasca Basin including the Parry Lake project, which is contiguous to claims recently optioned by Zadar Ventures Ltd., and the Spring project, which adjoins claims controlled by Forum Uranium Corp and Cameco Corporation.
