Fission Uranium (FCU-T) Assays Show Potential to Connect Zones and Expand 2.58km Trend

May 17, '16 - NR

Fission Uranium (FCU-T) is pleased to announce assay results from the final 9 drill holes from the winter 2016 drill program. Assays confirm further high-grade mineralization expanding the western strike extent at its R840W zone and the eastern extent of the R780E zone at its PLS property in Canada's Athabasca Basin region. In addition, mineralization in hole PLS16-472 (line 435W) has been confirmed by assays which confirms the potential to find further mineralization between the R600W zone and the R00E zone. These holes highlight the potential of growth within the 2.58km long strike length of the Patterson Lake Corridor trend and the potential to expand this strike length.

Ross McElroy, President, COO, and Chief Geologist for Fission, commented

"These final assay results from the highly successful winter program show an increasing potential to connect the shallow, high-grade Triple R deposit to the shallow, high-grade R600W and R1620E zones. In addition, high-grade mineralization confirmed in PLS16-479 (line 960W) extends high-grade mineralization at the westernmost line of the R840W zone, which remains open along strike to the west. Our 2.58km mineralized trend is recognized as one of the largest footprints in the Athabasca Basin region and today's results show, that trend is still open."

Assay Highlights Include:

R840W zone

PLS16-479 (line 960W) key interval:

22.5m @ 1.35% U3O8 (148.0 to 170.5m), including: 3.0m @ 4.96% U3O8 (150.5m to 153.5m)

R780E Zone

PLS16-471 (line 1110E) key interval:

Composited % U3O8 mineralized intervals are summarized in Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4. Samples from the drill core are split in half sections on site. Where possible, samples are standardized at 0.5m down-hole intervals. One-half of the split sample is sent to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) in Saskatoon, SK for analysis which includes U3O8 (wt %) and fire assay for gold, while the other half remains on site for reference. All analysis includes a 63 element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry and boron. Individual zone wireframe models constructed from assay data and used in the resource estimate indicate that both the R780E and R00E zones have a complex geometry controlled by and parallel to steeply south-dipping lithological boundaries as well as a preferential sub-horizontal orientation. All depth measurements reported, including sample and interval widths are down-hole, core interval measurements and true thickness are yet to be determined.

PLS Mineralized Trend & Triple R Deposit Summary

Uranium mineralization at PLS occurs within the Patterson Lake Conductive Corridor and has been traced by core drilling approximately 2.58km of east-west strike length in five separated mineralized "zones". From west to east, these zones are: R840W, R600W, R00E, R780E and R1620E. Thus far only the R00E and R780E have been included in the Triple R deposit resource estimate.

The discovery hole of what is now referred to as the Triple R uranium deposit was announced on November 05, 2012 with drill hole PLS12-022, from what is considered part of the R00E zone. Through successful exploration programs completed to date, it has evolved into a large, near surface, basement hosted, structurally controlled high-grade uranium deposit.

The Triple R deposit consists of the R00E zone on the western side and the much larger R780E zone further on strike to the east. Within the deposit, the R00E and R780E zones have an overall combined strike length validated by a resource estimate of approximately 1.05km with the R00E measuring approximately 105m in strike length and the R780E zones measuring approximately 945m in strike length. A 225m gap separates the R00E zone to the west and the R780E zones to the east, though sporadic narrow, weakly mineralized intervals from drill holes within this gap suggest the potential for further significant mineralization in this area. The R780E zone is located beneath Patterson Lake which is approximately six metres deep in the area of the deposit. The entire Triple R deposit is covered by approximately 50m to 60m of overburden.

Mineralization remains open along strike both to the western and eastern extents. Mineralization is both located within and associated with a metasedimentary lithologic corridor, associated with the PL-3B basement Electro-Magnetic (EM) Conductor. Recent very positive drill results returning wide and strongly mineralized intersections from the R600W zone and the newly discovered R840W zone, located 480m and 765m respectively to the west along strike have significantly upgraded the prospectivity of these areas for further growth of the PLS resource on land to the west of the Triple R deposit. The recently discovered high-grade mineralization in the R1620E zone, located 300m to the east along strike has significantly upgraded the prospectivity for further growth of the PLS resource to the east of the Triple R deposit.
