The company said that the results further widen the main PLS discovery to the north and south, east of line 780E.

Fission Uranium said in a statement, "All twelve holes returned wide mineralization, with seven holes returning substantial intervals of >10,000 cps radioactivity."

Particularly the hole PLS14-248 on line 825E 106.2m yielded total composite mineralization between 108.0m and 264m, including 21.2m total composite mineralization of >10,000cps radioactivity.

Other highlights of the drilling include 1.9m total composite mineralization of >10,000 cps radioactivity in 77m total composite mineralization between 82m and 240m, and 1.7m total composite mineralization of >10,000cps radioactivity in 77m total composite mineralization between 81.5m and 230m.

Fission Uranium president, COO and chief geologist Ross McElroy said: "Today’s results confirm a widening to the north and south in the eastern half of the R780E zone – evidence of the continued strong growth and potential of PLS."

Drill core samples will be split in half sections and one-half of the sample will be sent to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories for analysis.
