Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - October 26, 2023) - Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV: COSA) (OTCQB: COSAF) (FSE: SSKU) ("Cosa" or the "Company") is pleased to announce the acquisition of the 100% owned Solstice uranium exploration property in the Athabasca Basin region, Saskatchewan ("Solstice" or the "Property"). Additionally, the Company has entered into a service agreement with Native Ads Inc. ("Native Ads").
Highlights
- Solstice covers 3 kilometres of strike length along a prominent northwest-trending magnetic break, a setting which hosts several mineralized zones and deposits in the western Athabasca Basin region
- The 628-hectare project was acquired by low-cost staking and is 100% owned by Cosa with no encumbrances
- Cosa's uranium exploration portfolio now comprises 161,536 hectares in the Athabasca Basin region of Saskatchewan
Keith Bodnarchuk, President and CEO of Cosa, commented: "Solstice is another example of our technical team adding quality exploration ground to our portfolio of Athabasca uranium exploration projects. We look forward to updating the market with detailed results of our recent exploration work, and as we prepare for our inaugural drill program at Ursa, we are eager to share the Cosa story with a much broader audience."
Andy Carmichael, VP of Exploration of Cosa, commented: "Solstice covers the southwest edge of a prominent, north-northwest trending magnetic high, a setting similar to those hosting the Shea Creek uranium deposits and F3 Uranium's JR Zone. Historical work has mapped an EM conductor immediately south of the Property's southern boundary and we will determine if it extends onto Solstice."
Solstice Property
The Solstice Property comprises three mineral claims totaling 628 hectares staked in October 2023. Solstice is located 14 kilometres north of the Smart Lake uranium occurrence, 24 kilometres northwest of F3 Uranium Corp.'s JR Zone, and 36 kilometres southwest of the Shea Creek uranium deposits (Figures 1 and 2). Provincial Highway 955 passes within 25 kilometres, and an existing network of winter roads extends to within 9 kilometers of the Property.
Solstice contains 3 kilometres of strike length along the southwest margin of a prominent magnetic high. An historical airborne electromagnetic (EM) survey south of Solstice mapped an EM conductor flanking the magnetic high and extending north from the Beatty River Shear Zone to within 350 metres of Solstice (Figure 2). No drilling has been completed within the Property and the depth to the unconformity is estimated to be between 400 and 450 metres.
Next Steps
Initial exploration is expected to include reconnaissance airborne surveys to determine if EM conductors are present within Solstice. Additional work will include ground-based geophysics for target refinement and diamond drilling as warranted.
