A total of ten conductors have been located in 4 separate areas (Area A, B, C and D) beneath Patterson Lake and Forest Lake.

Fission president, COO, and chief geologist Ross McElroy said that the company’s lake bottom, winter radon survey and analysis techniques were key elements in targeting the first strike holes at six of the seven zones and numerous successful step-outs.

"PLS is a hugely prospective property with a multitude of conductors and just as our understanding of the geology has evolved in the past two exploration programs, so too has our use of Radon survey technology," McElroy added.

"With approximately 20% of the upcoming drilling focusing on exploring new areas of interest, we expect this radon survey to play an important role in targeting and prioritizing new holes."

The survey is likely to take five to six weeks to complete on the PLS property.
