Baselode Intersects Widest Zone of Elevated Radioactivity To Date, Updates on ACKIO High-Grade Uranium Drill Program

"ACKIO continues to grow in size and impress us with results. Both AK22-18 and AK22-19 demonstrate the robust size of the uranium-fertile fluid pathways that have penetrated the ACKIO area. We are convinced that our drill holes to date have intersected the distal damage zone along the edges of a major mineralized structure and that a larger deposition point exists along the trend. Our recent structural analysis of ACKIO is very compelling as it confirms numerous features previously identified with our geophysical surveys which could lead to the discovery of zones with higher levels of radioactivity and point us to targets for unconformity mineralization. We are excited to continue drilling the ACKIO mineralized trend and to test other prospective targets on the Hook Project," said James Sykes, CEO, President and Director of Baselode.

Highlights include;

• Drill hole AK22-18 has intersected the broadest zone of continuously elevated radioactivity summed over the entire drill hole length on the project to date, including a highlight of 2,130 cps over 2.6 m at 164.5 m depth and a maximum of 4,550 cps over 0.2 m at 166.5 m depth (see Table 1)
• Drill holes AK22-13, AK22-14 and AK22-19 intersected highlights of;
• • 1,317 cps over 2.35 m at 166.5 m depth,
  • 1,152 cps over 2.9 m at 157.2 m depth,
  • 1,037 cps over 2.05 m at 219.95 m including a maximum of 8,000 cps over 0.1 m at 221.6 m and 1,160 cps over 4.55 m at 236.8 m including a maximum of 9,200 cps over 0.1 m at 239.9 m, respectively

• The Upper zone strike length has been extended to over 200 metres and the Lower zone strike length now measures greater than 150 metres; both zones remain open in all directions (see Figure 1). The Upper and Lower zones are between 90 to 125 m and 150 to 200 m beneath the surface, respectively
• Structural analysis has confirmed the presence of northeast-southwest oriented faults cross-cutting the northwest-southeast local fabric which could control 1) higher levels of radioactivity observed in drill holes AK21-01 and AK22-11 (see previous news releases), and 2) offsets of the current northwest-southeast mineralization extents

The Company is preparing a video presentation to provide more details and interpretations regarding the results and details from this news release. The video is expected within the next 10 days.

Since announcing the start of the Program on February 9, 2022 (see Company News Release), Baselode has completed 15 drill holes (AK22-05 to AK22-19) for 4,754.6 m (see Figure 1). Eight drill holes have intersected continuously elevated radioactivity. A complete list of drill hole collars and hand-held scintillometer radioactivity composite measurements from this news release are provided in Table 1.

Samples from these eight drill holes have been submitted to the Saskatchewan Research Council's ("SRC") Geoanalytical Laboratory in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, for whole-rock, multi-element and U₃O₈ analysis. Baselode will continue to provide Program updates on a bi-monthly to monthly schedule. Uranium assay results will be released as they are received after being compiled and thoroughly checked by the technical team.

The Program is helicopter-supported to lessen any ground-induced environmental impacts within the project area, and will allow the Company to continue the Program during Spring thaw.

ACKIO is located 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.

About Baselode Energy Corp.
Baselode controls 100% of approximately 227,000 hectares for exploration in the Athabasca Basin area, northern Saskatchewan, Canada. The land package is free of any option agreements or underlying royalties.

Baselode's Athabasca 2.0 exploration thesis is focused on discovering near-surface, basement-hosted, high-grade uranium orebodies outside of the Athabasca Basin. The exploration thesis is further complemented by the Company's preferred use of innovative and well-understood geophysical methods to map deep structural controls to identify shallow targets for diamond drilling.
