Baselode Energy Launches 1,500-Meter Drill Program at Bear Uranium Project

Baselode Energy has commenced a 1,500-metre drill program at its Bear Uranium project located in the Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan. The exploration initiative represents a significant step forward in evaluating the uranium potential of this strategically important region. CEO James Sykes confirmed the program will consist of 6 to 8 drill holes targeting 3 to 4 distinct areas of interest within the project boundaries, with field crews already establishing logistical support and drill crews scheduled to arrive on-site within two weeks.

The company has implemented helicopter support for the drilling operations, a strategic decision aimed at accelerating drill targeting while minimizing environmental impact on the ground. This approach reflects Baselode Energy's commitment to responsible exploration practices in the ecologically sensitive Athabasca Basin region. All necessary permits have been secured for the program, ensuring full compliance with regulatory requirements and environmental standards. The company maintains its corporate presence through its official website at https://baselode.com where stakeholders can access additional information about their exploration portfolio.

Complementing the drilling activities, Baselode Energy completed a low-altitude, high-resolution airborne radiometric and magnetic survey over the Bear project in March. While final results from this advanced geophysical survey are still pending, the company anticipates receiving them before drilling commences. These survey results are expected to provide critical geological insights that will enhance targeting precision and optimize exploration planning for the current program. The integration of modern geophysical techniques with traditional drilling represents the company's comprehensive approach to mineral exploration.

Simultaneously, Baselode Energy has provided updates on its Catharsis Project, where recent drilling activities yielded promising results. A total of 11 drill holes covering 2,837 meters were completed across six different target areas, with encouraging signs of hydrothermal alteration and structural features identified in two additional target zones. These geological indicators suggest potential mineralization, though full assessment awaits the completion of assay analysis and interpretation. The company plans to release detailed results through comprehensive news releases once all analytical data has been processed and evaluated.

The exploration momentum continues with the completion of another low-altitude, high-resolution airborne radiometric and magnetic survey over the Catharsis Project in April. This additional geophysical data will complement the drilling results and provide enhanced geological context for understanding the project's mineralization potential. Baselode Energy maintains its commitment to advancing multiple exploration projects within the Athabasca Basin, leveraging innovative techniques and systematic approaches to identify and delineate high-potential uranium targets. The company's ongoing exploration initiatives demonstrate the continued importance of the Athabasca Basin as a globally significant uranium district, with Baselode positioned as an active explorer in this critical mineral sector.
