The hole PLS14-230 on line 915E returned 6.1m total composite off-scale with >10,000cps radioactivity in 128m composite mineralization.

Of the fourteen holes, seven angled holes and three vertical holes yielded substantial intervals of off-scale >10,000cps radioactivity.

Fission Uranium president, COO, and chief geologist Ross McElroy said: "Fourteen holes, fourteen hits. We have wide mineralization in every drill hole, high-grade intervals in ten of the holes and a new mineralized area to the North of the R780E zone’s eastern section.

"The summer drill program is progressing extremely well as we continue to rapidly expand the PLS discovery prior to a 43-101 resource estimate at the end of the year."

The company said that the angled holes are being drilled to enhance understanding of the discovery’s geometry and assist in the identifying new mineralized zones.

Fission replaced the Exploranium GR-110 Scintillometer with a RS-121 Super GAMMA Scintillometer, which is capable of measuring higher radioactivity than the GR-110 with readings up to 65,535cps before saturation.

Samples from the drill core will be split in half and one of them will be sent for analysis at SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories.
