TORONTO, Aug. 23, 2021 /CNW/ - Baselode Energy Corp.
(TSXV: FIND) (OTCQB: BSENF) ("Baselode" or the
"Company") is pleased to announce that a drill crew is
mobilizing to its Hook Uranium Project ("Hook").
"We anticipate the drill to start turning this week to test some
exciting targets on the Beckett and South Geikie areas of our Hook
Project," said James Sykes, CEO and
President of Baselode.
Cameron MacKay, Baselode's
Projects Manager, adds: "Our prospecting field crew identified
anomalous radioactive occurrences in outcrop at both the Beckett
and South Geikie targets. These anomalies occur at lithological
contacts intersected by north-south structures and validate our
geophysical interpretations and our working structural model for
Hook."
Planned Drill Program
Baselode anticipates between 10 to 15 drill holes for a total of
2,500 metres, with each drill hole ranging from 150 to 250 metres
drill hole depth. The drill program is planned with
helicopter support to achieve broader target area coverage and to
lessen any ground-induced environmental impacts within the project
area.
Baselode remains engaged in positive discussions with Indigenous
communities and northern stakeholders for its exploration
activities and projects. Baselode is committed to mutually
beneficial working relationships with Indigenous and northern
communities while mitigating any exploration impacts on traditional
Indigenous lands and Rights.
