Stallion Uranium Corp. (the
"Company" or
"Stallion") (TSX-V: STUD; OTCQB: STLNF; FSE: FE0)
is pleased to provide an exploration update outlining 9 high
priority target areas discovered across its land package in the
prolific Southwestern Athabasca Basin. The targets highlighted are
the compilation of all available data from surveys completed by the
company that have allowed for the identification of previously
unknown high priority targets. The company is continuing to
undertake survey programs that will work to further upgrade these
target areas and help prioritize them for advanced exploration and
drill testing.
Key Exploration Highlights
- Uncovered over 600km of
prospective conductive corridors
- Outlining only high
priority targets from over 3,000 sq/km of prospective
land
- Discovered 9 Tier One
target areas across land package
- Successful maiden drill
program following Exploration Funnel, near term discovery
potential
“Stallion’s vision to discover the next
significant uranium deposit in the Athabasca Basin is well
underway,” said CEO Drew Zimmerman “We acquired over 3,000 sq/km of
highly prospective, yet vastly underexplored ground in the
southwestern basin that borders industry majors like Cameco, Orano,
Uranium Energy Company, NexGen Energy, and Fission Uranium. With
the utilization of the latest exploration technology, we have
transformed our ground from an unknown expanse into a land package
that hosts not one, two or three areas with the potential for a
world class deposit, but the nine being highlighted today!”
Overview
Stallion has covered every square kilometre of
their land package with regional airborne surveys to uncover the
most prospective conductive corridors. These conductive corridors
are the “plumbing” network for uranium deposits that are detectable
through airborne surveys in the Athabasca Basin. The company has
continued their survey work, continuing to layer on more new data,
which has allowed the company to highlight 9 tier one target areas
that hold significant potential for discovery.
At the beginning of this year Stallion took huge
strides, moving from early-stage exploration to the advanced stage
with its maiden drill program. As the company implemented its
exploration funnel, the Appaloosa target moved to the top of the
list for drill testing, yielding great initial success in
completing its objectives. The technical success that came from the
first target has bolstered the company’s confidence. With 8
additional tier one targets moving through the exploration funnel
Stallion’s opportunity, and probability, of making a significant
uranium discovery continue to grow.

Locations
Darren Slugoski, Vice President Exploration
said, “The targets have been developed from the integration of the
results from our new geophysical surveys and drilling, along with
historical data and interpretations. The target criteria included
geophysical signatures, geological/structural setting, proximity to
historical uranium occurrences. The targets identified have limited
drilling and represent a significant opportunity to locate all
three uranium deposit types, perched, unconformity or basement
hosted deposits.”
Stallion’s Highlighted Tier One
Targets
Appaloosa Target
- Verified graphitic conductor with
drilling, which is hosted in a gravity and magnetic low, an
indication of alteration known to correlate with uranium
mineralization.
- Intersected conductive structure
over 94.7m wide, verifying the target as a top priority for
follow-up drilling as the size of the structure can host a large
deposit.
- Encountered above background
radioactivity near the unconformity and in graphitic structure as
well as geochemical enrichment and hydrothermal alteration.
- Along the edge of the deep-seated
Beaverlodge and Taltson Domains
- Clear analogs to the Shea Creek
Deposit only 13km to the west

Target
Fishhook Target
- Stallion project hosts 18 kms of
the Fishhook Trend that has never been drill tested.
- Structurally complex conductive
trend that bifurcates into the Five of Diamonds Trend, evidence of
massive structural corridor for “trapping” potential uranium
mineralization
- Fishhook Occurrence consists of
historical drillhole FH-07 which intersected 0.139% U3O8 occurring
8 kms south of the property edge.

Target
Coyote Target
- Coyote corridor hosts uranium
mineralization in historic drillhole KLL-3 (255 ppm U3O8, 127 ppm
U3O8).
- The conductor occurs as an
East-West trending anomaly cutting across the claim block.
- Contains complex structures
identified in the geophysics.
- Estimated thickness of Athabasca
Sandstone is 450 metres.
Five of Diamonds Target
- Very long conductive length of 30
km.
- Conductor is hosted in a magnetic
low.
- Untested with Drilling.
- 16 km west from Cameco’s Centennial
Deposit.
R7 North Target
- MobileMT survey identified 15 km
long R7 Corridor crossing 3 claims
- The R7 North Target hosts the
strongest conductive anomaly identified with Stallions 2023
MobileMT.
- The corridor occurs along the
southern contact of the Patterson Lake Shear Zone.
- NexGen is conducting drilling
operations along the R7 Corridor.
- World class neighbors (Cameco and
NexGen Energy) activity with active exploration programs.
SL1 Target (Sandy Lake
Property)
- 11km west of Shea Creek and Cluff
Lake Mine.
- Occurs near the Harrison Fault
which marks the boundary between two large lithological domains
(Beaverlodge and Taltson Domains).
- The conductor interacts with the
radial structures developed from the nearby Carswell structure
making it a compelling target for follow-up work.
- The structural complexity
identified are prime locations for uranium deposits.
- Large multi-kilometer conductive
trends coincide with basement structures interpreted to be similar
to structures at Shea Creek and Cluff Lake Mine.
Holsteiner Target
- Recently identified with 2023
MobileMT survey.
- Conductor trends from F3’s Minto
Property (previously known as the Patterson Lake North
Property).
- Extremely close to hydrothermal
heat source (Clearwater Domain).
Mustang Target
- Located at the southern tip of the
Appaloosa Corridor.
- Branches off the deep-seated Beatty
River Fault.
Clydesdale Target
- The target branches off the
Appaloosa Corridor.
- Target occurs in a magnetic and
gravity low.
Stallion has been able to highlight these 9 tier
one targets areas from the interpretation of the electromagnetic
survey data and historical exploration datasets. Each target area
is unique in its degree of historical exploration work that helps
guide future programs. Stallion is continuing to upgrade and
optimise the target areas to prepare each of them for drill
testing. The company’s maiden drill program on the Appaloosa target
is the only drilling to occur on Stallion’s land package. At
Appaloosa, the company’s objective is to follow-up the results from
winter drilling which intersected anomalous radioactivity and the
graphitic conductor in the final hole of the season. Coyote,
Fishhook, Five of Diamonds and R7 North targets are the next stage
of priority targets discovered from the recent MobileMT survey.
Future exploration of these target areas will consist of additional
airborne surveys to upgrade and refine the targets before launching
high resolution ground electromagnetic surveys for precise drill
targeting.
