Black Shield Metals Acquires Mann Lake Uranium Property and Announces Proposed Name Change to Basin Uranium Corp

18.10.2021  |  The Newswire
Vancouver, Oct 18, 2021 - Black Shield Metals Corp. (CSE:BDX) (CNSX:BDX.CN) (“ Black Shield ” or the “ Company ”) is pleased to announce it has entered into an option agreement (the “ Option Agreement ”) with Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (“ Skyharbour ” or the “ Optionor ”) to acquire up to a 75% (the “ Option ”) of the Mann Lake Uranium Project (“ Mann Lake ” or the “ Property ”) located in the Athabasca Basin, Northern Saskatchewan, Canada.

Skyharbour owns a 100% interest in the 3,473 hectare (8,582 acre) Mann Lake Uranium Project located in the eastern Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan. It is strategically located 25 km southwest of the McArthur River Mine, the largest high-grade uranium deposit in the world, and 15 km to the northeast along strike of Cameco’s Millennium uranium deposit. Skyharbour’s Mann Lake project is also adjacent to the Mann Lake Joint Venture operated by Cameco (52.5%) with partners Denison Mines (30%) and AREVA (17.5%).Denison Mines acquired International Enexco and its 30% interest in the project after the 2014 winter drill program discovered high-grade, basement-hosted uranium mineralization.

Skyharbour carried out a ground-based EM survey in 2014 focused on a zone where a favourable, 2 km long aeromagnetic low coincides with possible basement conductor trends indicated by prior EM surveys. The survey was successful in confirming the presence of a broad, NE-SW trending corridor of conductive basement rocks which are probably graphitic metapelites.

Skyharbour’s Mann Lake Uranium Project has seen over $3 million of previous exploration expenditures including field work, geophysical surveys and two diamond drill programs totaling 5,400 metres carried out by Triex in 2006 and 2008. The geophysical surveys identified basement conductors and structural corridors containing reactivated basement faults. These features trend onto the adjacent ground held by Cameco. The 2006 drill program intersected a 4.5 metre wide zone containing anomalous boron (with highlight values of 1,758 ppm B) in the sandstone immediately above the unconformity in hole MN06-005. Boron enrichment is common at the McArthur River uranium mine, and along with illite and chlorite alteration, is a key pathfinder element for uranium deposits in the Basin. In the same drill hole, an altered basement gneissic rock with abundant clay, chlorite, hematite and calc-silicate minerals was intersected about 7.6 metres below the unconformity and contained anomalous uranium, including 73.6 ppm U3O8 over a 1.5 metre interval. Background uranium values are commonly between 1 and 5 ppm.

Under the terms of the Option Agreement, the Company is committed to the following:

(a) paying to the Optionor a total of CAD $850,000 and issuing to the Optionor the total number of common shares (“ Shares ”) of the Company equivalent to a value of CAD $1,750,000 based on the 20 day VWAP at the time of issuance, as follows:

(i) within five days of the signing of the Option Agreement, pay $100,000 and issue Shares equivalent to $250,000 at the 20 day VWAP at the time of issuance;

(ii) on the first anniversary of the signing of the Option Agreement, pay $250,000 and issue Shares equivalent to $500,000 at the 20 day VWAP at the time of issuance;

(iii) on the second anniversary of the signing of the Option Agreement, pay $250,000 and issue Shares equivalent to $500,000 at the 20 day VWAP at the time of issuance;

(iv) on the third anniversary of the signing of the Option Agreement, pay $250,000 and issue Shares equivalent to $500,000 at the 20 day VWAP at the time of issuance;

(b) incur a minimum of $4,000,000 in exploration expenditures on the Property as follows:

(iii) an additional $2,000,000 in exploration expenditures on or before the third anniversary of the signing of the Option Agreement.

In the event that the Company spends, in any of the above periods, less than the specified sum, it may pay to the Optionor the difference between the amount it actually spent and the specified sum before the expiry of that period in full satisfaction of the exploration expenditures to be incurred. In the event that the Company spends, in any period, more than the specified sum, the excess shall be carried forward and applied to the exploration expenditures to be incurred in succeeding periods.

Immediately on the Company satisfying all of the conditions, the Company will be deemed to have exercised the Option and to have earned a 75% interest in and to the Property which will vest to the Company, subject to the net smelter returns royalty (“ NSR Royalty ”). A NSR Royalty of two and a half percent (2.5%) is payable to a third party of net smelter returns from minerals mined and removed from the Property (payable pro-rata based on ownership interest in the Property).
