About Athabasca Nuclear Corporation

Athabasca Nuclear Corp. (TSXV:ASC) is a junior uranium exploration company focused on the exploration and advancement of its significant uranium portfolio in Saskatchewan including the Preston Lake, Patterson Lake East, Botham Lake, Parry Lake, Martin River, Karras River and Spring uranium projects. For more information on each of these projects, please visit AthabascaNuclear.com.

Athabasca Nuclear's Preston Lake project is part of the Western Athabasca Syndicate, a strategic partnership formed between Athabasca Nuclear Corp., Skyharbour Resources Ltd., Noka Resources Inc. and Lucky Strike Resources Ltd. to explore and develop a 287,130 hectare (709,513 acre) package of uranium properties which is the largest land position along the highly prospective margin of the Western Athabasca Basin controlled by a single group. Under the terms of the agreement, each of the four companies has an option to earn 25% of the five uranium properties comprising the Western Athabasca Syndicate Partnership by making a series of cash payments, share payments and incurring their pro-rata amount of the total $6,000,000 in exploration expenditures over the two-year earn-in term of the agreement. The properties were acquired for their proximity to the PLS discovery and interpreted favourable geology for the occurrence of PLS style uranium mineralization. The bulk of the syndicate land package is bisected by all-weather Highway 955 which runs north through the PLS discovery on to the former Cluff Lake uranium mine.

Signed,

"Charles C. Downie" P.Geo.
