comments: "Early in my carrier as a freelance geologist I developed
a "Concept of Uranium Deposition" in the Lisbon Valley District
(then called The Big Indian Wash Uranium District) that culminated
in the discovery of the Velvet – Section 2 Uranium Deposits. With
Uravan's Acquisition of the of LS mining claims, I am pleased to be
active again in this highly prolific uranium producing domain. I
believe it is a pivotal time to be involved in uranium exploration
and specifically in the Lisbon Valley area."
