Acquisition Of The Blue Jay Mine Project In La Sal Uranium District
VANCOUVER - C2C Metals Corp. reported acquisition of the Blue Jay Mine Project lies in San Juan County, Utah, and is located in the La Sal Uranium District.
Chris Huggins, Chief Executive Officer, said, "The Blue Jay Mine Project is C2C's second uranium project as we continue to delve into the private mining database. The Blue Jay is another excellent example of high value uranium properties that have been neglected for over 40 years. Having access to an extensive database allows C2C to capitalize on previous work that has outlined very promising areas with significant uranium mineralization. The project's mineralization remains open along trend to the west and offers excellent exploration potential."
The Blue Jay Mine Uranium Property comprises 28 mineral claims covering about 560 acres, located approximately 30 miles south of Moab, San Juan County, Utah, within the La Sal Uranium District. The claims are located about 2 to 3 miles northwesterly from three historic uranium producing mines, including the Rattlesnake Mine - one of the top four past producing uranium-vanadium mines in the La Sal District. The project area is also within, or adjacent to, the largest favorable channel trend in the western part of the La Sal Uranium Mining District, Utah, which hosts many of the largest uranium deposits in the La Sal District.
The La Sal Uranium-Vanadium District is identified as having Utah's second highest potential for the discovery of additional uranium reserves. C2C's 28 claims including the historic Blue Jay Mine Portal, are also located in an area identified as having high exploration potential as reported in the Utah Geological Survey.
