Shirley Central Project 22 Hole Drill Program Confirmation Permit Received

VANCOUVER – Noble Plains Uranium Corp. has received a drill permit for a 22-hole confirmation drill program at its Shirley Central Project in Wyoming’s Shirley Basin – just two months after securing the option on the property. The rapid permitting reflects the Company’s focused approach to advance high-potential brownfield uranium assets in premier U.S. jurisdictions.
The permitted drill program will test six target zones identified through historical drill density and aerial mapping, with the goal of confirming historical mineralization and fast-tracking the project toward an initial 43-101 resource estimate. Mobilization for drilling is expected very soon. ”This shows the execution of our strategy, move quickly, focusing on the premier basins, and advance projects with a clear path to building uranium pounds in the ground,” said Drew Zimmerman, President. “The speed at which we’ve moved from acquisition to planned and permitted drilling at Shirley Central shows our team’s ability to act decisively to build value for shareholders.”
“This land was historically drilled with purpose, the high-density drilling was positioned between known producing pits,” said Paul Cowley, CEO. “That kind of geological footprint allows us to step in with targeted confirmation drilling and accelerate the path toward a compliant resource. It’s an efficient and technically sound approach to unlocking value.”
The Company’s 22-hole program will focus on six discrete high-density drill zones originally outlined by legacy operators, including Kerr-McGee. These zones feature drill spacings as tight as 25m x 25m, a pattern indicative of focused resource delineation efforts. This historical groundwork offers Noble Plains a cost-effective, low risk starting point for modern resource definition. This program represents a key milestone in Noble Plains’ strategy to build out a pipeline of ISR-amenable uranium projects in infrastructure-ready U.S. basins, backed by historical data and modern exploration.
