Eagle Plains Resources Amplifies Uranium Presence with Expansion in Province’s Athabasca Basin


Eagle Plains Resources Ltd. (TSX-V:EPL) has significantly enhanced its presence in Saskatchewan by acquiring an expansive 117,841 hectares within the renowned Athabasca Basin’s uranium-rich territories. This move, achieved through both staking and transactions with third-party vendors, elevates the company’s total Saskatchewan land holdings to over 300,000 hectares.

The expansion reflects Eagle Plains Resources Ltd.’s ambitious effort to grow its uranium asset base in Saskatchewan. By securing six new projects in the Athabasca Basin, known for its premium uranium deposits, the company solidifies its stake in the uranium industry. These acquisitions expand its project portfolio to include notable additions and extensions such as the Lorado, Gulch, Collins Bay Extension (CBE), and the Dianne Lake projects, alongside a brand-new project in the Richards Lake area.

This strategic expansion brings Eagle Plains to hold a 100% interest in 18 distinct projects, covering 40,050 hectares of mineral rights in Saskatchewan. These projects, which now include both early-stage grassroots and drill-ready sites, are aimed at exploring basement and unconformity hosted uranium deposits across key areas within the Athabasca Basin, including the Patterson Lake South (PLS), Beaverlodge, and Dufferin-Centennial camps. This move not only reinforces Eagle Plains’ standing in the uranium exploration field but also underscores the company’s commitment to exploring the vast potential of these uranium prospects.

In an era where the demand for cleaner and more sustainable energy solutions is escalating, uranium emerges as a critical resource. Eagle Plains Resources’ strategic foray into Saskatchewan’s uranium-prevalent regions marks the company as an integral player in the uranium industry. The acquisition of these projects underlines the company’s dedication to harnessing the high-grade uranium resources of the Athabasca Basin.

Now, with a portfolio exceeding 300,000 hectares in one of the most uranium-fertile regions, Eagle Plains Resources stands at the forefront of contributing significantly to the global uranium supply chain. Their approach to responsible exploration and development promises not only industry advancements but also benefits for local communities and environmental stewardship.

In sum, the recent expansion by Eagle Plains Resources signifies the company’s strong commitment to the uranium sector and its optimism in the potential offered by Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin. As the global community leans towards cleaner energy sources, Eagle Plains positions itself as a pivotal entity in driving the future of uranium exploration and production.
