Night Owl Uranium Project Area Of Mineralization Expanded

KELOWNA - Strathmore Plus Uranium Corporation has received additional uranium assay results from mineralized samples removed from an outcrop at the Night Owl uranium project in the Shirley Basin District of Wyoming. The four new samples were collected outside the area previously tested and reported. Uranium concentrations in the new area range from 0.26% U3O8 to 0.32% U3O8, and similar in nature to those previously sampled from boulders and other outcrop occurrences in the area.

Upon review of the latest Night Owl assay results, John DeJoia, Technical Advisor, said, "Looking back at my conventional mining experience, the biggest problems were usually miner training, ore (grade) control and mining dilution. Any training program required ore predictability and planning. If the miners could predict and plan their activities, production grades and volumes (dilution) could be maintained, and processing could be controlled. Having worked in the production world for a long time, it really encourages me to see the continuity of the grades we are seeing on this project. These assays are very promising for Night Owl."

The recent samples were obtained from an outcrop near where ~93 tons of ore at 0.24% U3O8 was previously mined in the 1950-60s. The mineralization is contained within a brecciated zone lying at the unconformable contact between the Mississippian Madison Formation (limestone) and the overlying Pennsylvanian-Permian Casper Formation (sandstone). The 7- to 10-foot-thick zone of breccia consists of voids filled with silicious materials containing complex uranium minerals, including uranyl phosphates.
