Kivalliq staked the project in January this year.
The C$1m ($0.91m) program will comprise around 6,000kms of helicopter borne geophysical surveying, focused on eight priority zones within the project.
Alongside the airborne survey, a 300 sample lake sediment sampling program is underway, to define new uranium anomalies within target areas.
Kivalliq said it will ground truth geophysical anomalies, favorable structures and areas of historic showings on receiving preliminary results from the airborne geophysical survey.
In order to refine target areas and generate additional new targets, a prospecting, mapping and geochemical soil sampling program will be conducted, the company said.
The program is expected to run until the end of September or early October with a focus on advancing uranium targets for drill testing.
The program will be financed by Roughrider Exploration, which has an option to acquire up to 85% interest in the Genesis property.
