Mustang Energy Corp. Expands Land Portfolio Across the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan

10.10.2024  |  GlobeNewswire
VANCOUVER, Oct. 10, 2024 - Mustang Energy Corp. (CSE: MEC)(the “Company” or “Mustang”) is pleased to announce the acquisition of 45,585 hectares of prospective land across the Southern and Western Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan. This expansion was achieved through a combination of low-cost staking and a strategic purchase agreements, as previously announced in the Company’s news release dated September 9, 2024 and September 26, 2024.

The newly acquired properties include the Yellowstone Project (21,820 hectares – see Figure 2), the Dutton Project (9,666 hectares – see Figure 3), and three additional claims (14,098 hectares) which are currently unnamed. With these acquisitions, Mustang’s total land holdings in the Athabasca Basin have increased from 10,644 hectares—comprising the Ford Lake, Cigar Lake East, and Roughrider South projects—to an impressive 56,229 hectares (see Figure 1).

“This is another significant land acquisition that marks a major milestone for Mustang Energy Corp as we continue to strengthen our asset base in the world's premier uranium-producing region,” stated Nick Luksha, CEO of Mustang Energy. “We successfully secured these adjoining claims to our existing land package. Since going public in early June, we've expanded our portfolio and intend to further strengthen our team. These claims are located in uranium-rich areas, offering excellent exploration potential, and we believe they will enhance long-term value for our shareholders.”


Acquisition of the Yellowstone Project

Mustang completed the previously announced acquisition of a land package in the Cluff Lake region of the Athabasca Basin from Proton Uranium Ltd. and Electron Uranium Ltd. (together, the “Vendors”), in exchange for the issuance of 12,000,000 common shares (each, a “Share”) in the capital of Mustang to three nominees (the “Nominees”) of the Vendors at a deemed price per Share of $0.255. All Shares issued as consideration to the Nominees are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance. Moreover, the Nominees have entered into a voluntary pooling agreement whereby the Shares cannot be sold, transferred, or otherwise disposed of until February 10, 2026. The claims comprising the Yellowstone Project are currently held in trust for Mustang by the Vendors, pending confirmation of transfer from Mineral Administration Registry Saskatchewan.

For more information regarding the acquisition of the Yellowstone Project, see the Company’s news release dated September 9, 2024 filed under its profile on SEDAR+.


Acquisition of a 90% Interest in the Brown Lake Project

Further to the acquisitions discussed above, Mustang is also pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition of a 90% interest in the Brown Lake project (the “Project”) pursuant to the terms of a mineral property acquisition agreement (the “Agreement”) with Standard Uranium (Saskatchewan) Ltd. (“Standard Uranium SK”) dated September 25, 2024, as previously announced in Mustang’s news release dated September 27, 2024. Mustang issued 60,000 Shares at a deemed price per Share of $0.33 to Standard Uranium Ltd. (“Standard Uranium”), Standard Uranium SK’s parent company, as consideration for the acquisition. All Shares issued to Standard Uranium are subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance. In addition, the Shares are subject to a voluntary escrow arrangement whereby the Shares will be released from escrow in four equal parts with the first part released at the expiration of the statutory hold period, and each successive release occurring every two months thereafter.

Pursuant to the Agreement, Standard Uranium SK will hold a 10% carried interest in the Project, while Mustang will be solely responsible for funding all expenses and obligations associated with maintaining, exploring and developing the Project. Mustang may only surrender its interest in the Project with prior approval of Standard Uranium SK. The mineral license underlying the Project is currently held in trust for Mustang by Standard Uranium SK, subject to confirmation of transfer from Mineral Administration Registry Saskatchewan.

Acquisition Highlights:

Yellowstone Project


- 100% owned by Mustang Energy, the Yellowstone Project consists of seven adjoining claims totaling 21,820 hectares.

- The property is located approximately 16 kilometers from the Cluff Lake Mine, which has produced over 62 million pounds of uranium¹, and is adjacent to Fission Uranium’s West Cluff Project.

- Surrounds the Carswell Impact Structure, an 18-kilometer-wide feature believed to have been created by a meteorite impact, exposing basement rock with significant high-grade uranium potential.

- The property is transected by known conductors, suggesting potential exploration targets.

- One historic drill hole (SYL-1) encountered strong alteration but missed the intended conductive target.²


Dutton Project

- The Dutton Project spans 9,667 hectares over three adjoining claims in the Southern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.

- Situated near the Cable Bay Shear Zone within the Mudjatik Domain, which is known to host uranium anomalies in the basement rock.

- The project is located approximately 20 kilometers east of the Virgin River Shear Zone, which hosts the Dufferin Lake Zone and Centennial deposit. These deposits have demonstrated high-grade uranium mineralization, including intersections of 1.73% U₃O₈ over 6.5 meters and 8.78% U₃O₈ over 33.9 meters.³,⁴

- The area remains underexplored, offering what Mustang believes to be potential for uranium discoveries.

Taken together, Mustang believes these acquisitions highlight Mustang’s commitment to expanding its portfolio of high-quality uranium assets within the Athabasca Basin, renowned for its uranium production. As global energy markets transition toward low-carbon solutions, the Company believes that nuclear energy—and the uranium that fuels it— will continue to play an important role in the sustainable energy landscape.

Mustang remains committed to responsible exploration, ensuring that its operations are conducted in an environmentally and socially sustainable manner, while contributing positively to the communities in which it operates.
