Baselode Expands Drill Program on ACKIO High-Grade Uranium Discovery, Receives Drill Permit for 50,000 m

The Company has approximately $20 million in cash and is fully-funded to carry out the expanded drill program.

"In light of the results we've seen on ACKIO we've increased the planned 10,000 metres to a minimum 20,000 metres along strike of ACKIO. This will see us drill right through until summer, and we now have the flexibility to expand further to a total of 60,000 metres on ACKIO until 2023," said James Sykes, CEO, President and Director of Baselode.

The drill program is helicopter-supported to lessen any ground-induced environmental impacts within the project area, and will allow the Company to continue the drill program through Spring thaw and into the Summer months. The Permit is effective immediately and expires on December 31, 2023. Baselode remains engaged in positive discussions with the respective Indigenous communities and northern stakeholders for the Hook project. Baselode is committed to mutually beneficial working relationships with Indigenous and northern communities while mitigating any exploration impacts on traditional Indigenous lands and Rights.

ACKIO is 30 km southeast of well-established infrastructure, including an all-season road and powerline between Cameco Corp.'s (TSX: CCO) and Orano's McArthur River mine and Key Lake Uranium mill joint ventures. ACKIO is 70 km northeast of the Key Lake mill.
