The claims are situated immediately adjacent to the eastern border of the Shore Gold Fort a la Corne project.
Apex will initially analyze airborne geophysical data to identify potential kimberlites or related intrusions.
The claims are equally owned by United Uranium and Star Uranium, and include the claims that were formerly disputed by Shore Gold.
United Uranium and Star Uranium president Kyle Kozuska said that the initial phase will be funded entirely through internal resources and they expect the companies will be well positioned to capitalize on further strengthening of the sector.
