"Considerable historic work has been undertaken by previous owners of our Shirley Basin project. Though no 43-101 compliant resource exists on our ground at this time, we are commencing a review of past activity to determine our next steps with regards to exploration and resource development on the project," commented CEO Glenn Catchpole. "We are encouraged by our knowledge of the sandstone-hosted roll front mineralization in the area and by the long history of uranium production in the Shirley Basin, which included the first successful commercial application of uranium in-situ leach mining in the United States."
URZ is also pleased to announce that it has established a corporate office in Casper, Wyoming, which will serve as the headquarters for an ambitious growth strategy. In addition to planning the technical activities on the Company's wholly owned Gas Hills and Juniper Ridge resource projects in Wyoming, the Casper office will lead URZ's assessment of acquisition opportunities in the region.
