Skyharbour intends to utilize the proceeds of this private placement for the continued exploration of the Company's uranium projects in the Athabasca Basin and for general working capital purposes. Skyharbour is planning a winter drill program at its 100% owned Falcon Point Uranium Project (previously the Way Lake Project) located 55 km east of the Key Lake Mill, which will be the Company's first work program on the property since acquiring it from Denison Mines in the summer of 2014. The program will focus on diamond drilling high-priority targets including areas in and around the current uranium/thorium resource at the JNR Fraser Lakes target. Exploratory drilling to vector in on the source of a 48% U3O8 grab sample at the Hook Lake target is also being considered.

The 246,643 hectare Preston Uranium Property is the largest individual property proximal to Fission Uranium's Triple R deposit and the recent discovery made by NexGen Energy on the Rook-1 Project.
