Emerita Resources Corp. is pleased to provide an update from exploration drilling at the El Cura deposit which is part of Emerita's wholly owned Iberian Belt West project . IBW hosts three previously identified massive sulfide deposits: La Infanta, La Romanera and El Cura. Results contained in this release are from El Cura. All three IBW deposits are open for expansion along strike and at depth. Ian Parkinson, EVP Corporate Development notes, "The El Cura Deposit is the one that we have the least historical data for and as such requires more of an exploration approach to locate the mineralized zone referred to by historical archived documents, primarily from RTZ exploration in the 1980's." Background First worked during Roman times, the El Cura mine has seen several periods o...

NYSE American: UEC Metallurgical drill hole intersects 3.16% eU3O8 over 43.4 metres with sub-intervals that grade 4.05% eU3O8 over 12.6 metres and 3.81% eU3O8 over 21.6 metres Uranium Energy Corp. , the "Company" or "UEC") is pleased to report drill results from its Roughrider Project located in Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. Both exploration and metallurgical sample drilling have been successful at intersecting uranium mineralization. Exploration drilling extends potential of East Zone deposit: UEC commenced a drill program at Roughrider in November 2023 with the dual purpose of exploring for additional resources on the property and for collecting metallurgical samples in the existing resource areas to support future economic studies. Discovery of new high-grade vein hosted m...

Carolina Rush Corp. is pleased to provide an update for the Brewer Gold-Copper Project in South Carolina, including results from Hole 20.
