Retransmission: CanAlaska Partners to Resume Drilling at West McArthur and Patterson

26.07.2016  |  Newsfile
Vancouver, July 26, 2016 - CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: CVV) (OTCQB: CVVUF) (FSE: DH7N), ("CanAlaska" or the "Company") is pleased to report that Cameco's (Cameco Corp. (TSX: CCO) (NYSE: CCJ)) exploration team will resume drilling shortly at CanAlaska's West McArthur project along trend from Cameco's high-grade Fox Lake uranium discovery. Makena Resources will also be drilling at the Company's West Patterson property to followup the first drill hole that encountered radioactivity along the entire length of rock tested.

Cameco to Resume Drilling Along Trend of High-Grade Fox Lake Discovery

Cameco's uranium exploration team has now established access to the C10 conductor targets south of drill hole WMA035, which was drilled in April of this year. This planned drilling, announced on May 31, has been delayed because of ground conditions which hampered summer access. Drilling is scheduled to commence in late July or early August.

CanAlaska and Cameco are exploring the West McArthur Uranium project under a $12.5 million Agreement. The project covers 35,830 hectares (88,536 acres) commencing 6 kilometres (4 miles) northwest of Cameco's majority owned McArthur River uranium mine. Importantly, West McArthur is immediately adjacent to Cameco's recently disclosed Fox Lake uranium discovery with reported inferred resources of approximately 68.1 million pounds based on 387,000 tonnes at 7.99% U3O8. The Fox Lake discovery is within the Read Lake project operated by Cameco (Cameco 78.2%, Areva 21.8%). For more information about the West McArthur project visit

Makena to Resume Drilling on Large Gravity Target on West Patterson Property

Makena Resources Inc. has scheduled the next phase of drilling at the West Patterson prospect in the Athabasca basin of Saskatchewan for early August. Makena anticipates the drill program to consist of at least three to five holes. A previous drill hole intersected a continuous section of anomalous radiometric response over the entire 113 metres of basement intersection. Shearing and brecciation occurs all along the 113 metres of granitic basement core, associated with clay alteration and alternating bleached and hematized sections down to the end-of-hole.

CanAlaska's West Patterson Lake property is located in the southwestern Athabasca Basin, approximately 10 kilometres northwest of NexGen Energy's Rook I project and Fission Uranium's Triple R deposit. For further information see http://www.canalaska.com/s/News.asp?ReportID=731650.

CanAlaska president, Peter Dasler states, "Cameco's drill program is aimed to test uranium mineralized alteration zones, which were intersected in previous drilling. This second round exploration has an excellent chance of intersecting further uranium mineralization closer to the centre of the mineral system in this highly prospective area. Makena's previous drilling has shown that there is anomalous uranium mineralization in the target area. We expect this drilling will vector towards a larger uranium target in the centre of a prominent gravity anomaly."
