怀俄明州纳特罗纳县卡斯珀市Ur-Energy公司10月29日启动120孔勘探钻探：Lost Creek South项目约8.4万英尺
怀俄明州纳特罗纳县卡斯珀市消息：美国最大的国内原地回收铀生产商Ur-Energy公司10月29日宣布，已在怀俄明州Lost Creek South项目启动一项120孔、总长约8.4万英尺的勘探钻探计划，旨在推动旗舰矿区的近矿扩张并探查新的资源目标。
Lost Creek South项目是Lost Creek矿区的一部分，整个矿区面积55平方英里，拥有公司的旗舰矿山和加工中心，而Lost Creek South项目紧邻现有矿产资源区，占矿区约16平方英里。钻探将沿着七英里长的综合成矿趋势带测试一系列高优先级区域，包括三条主要趋势带和更深、轮廓尚不清晰的趋势带，最多三台钻机同时作业，钻孔深度一般在500至800英尺之间，个别可达1000英尺。
钻探目标的确定基于Lost Creek South约520个历史钻孔的数据，其中许多钻孔深度较浅，而目前的矿山资源仅占整个矿区面积不到10%。
Ur-Energy Launches 120-Hole Exploration Drilling Program in Casper, Natrona County, Wyoming on October 29: About 84,000 Feet at Lost Creek South
Casper, Natrona County, Wyoming: Ur-Energy, America's largest domestic in-situ recovery uranium producer, announced on October 29 that it has begun a 120-hole exploration drilling program totaling about 84,000 feet at its Lost Creek South project in Wyoming, aimed at near-mine expansion around its flagship property and at testing new resource targets.
Lost Creek South is part of the Lost Creek property, a 55-square-mile land package hosting the company's flagship mine and processing hub; the project lies immediately adjacent to the existing mine resource area and covers about 16 square miles of the package. Drilling will test a series of high-priority areas along a seven-mile composite mineralized trend, including three primary trends and deeper, less-defined trends, with up to three rigs running at once and holes generally 500 to 800 feet deep, occasionally up to 1,000 feet.
The drill targets are based on data from about 520 historic holes at Lost Creek South, many of them shallow, while the current mine resource occupies less than 10 percent of the overall land package.
