Property Overview
The Claw Lake property was acquired by staking and collectively comprises 2 claim groups known as Claw Lake East (1 claim or 259 hectares) and Claw Lake West (15 claims, 3885 hectares). The prime target acquired comprises a strong extensive (15 kilometre by 10 kilometre) uranium in-lake sediment anomaly, containing several sites characterized by high uranium values including 131, 66, 65, 59 and 50 parts-per-million uranium, respectively. The high uranium values are also supplemented by anomalous values of molybdenum and Rare Earth Elements, indicative of a possible intrusion-related style of uranium mineralization.
Subsequent data compilation completed in the vicinity of the uranium in-lake sediment anomaly, also revealed the presence of a coincident airborne radiometric anomaly (equivalent uranium and equivalent uranium/equivalent thorium) defined by a regional survey flown by the Geological Survey of Canada and Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. in 1975. The combined extent of the uranium in-lake sediment and airborne radiometric anomalies are suggestive of a potentially very large area for uranium mineralization.
The property is located at the north-eastern end of the Savant Lake greenstone belt in the Wabigoon Subprovince and is largely underlain by granitoid rocks of Archean age. Mapping by the Ontario Geological Survey (Sanborn-Barrie 1990) in the Property area, indicate that the intrusive rocks are of tonalitic to monzogranitic composition.
A review of historical data indicates that minimal uranium-oriented exploration work has been completed in the area. Accordingly, an exploration program involving a detailed airborne radiometric survey and follow-up prospecting is planned by the Company for the spring of 2007 on the property.
