Uranium 308 Corp.: SGS Group Lab Analysis of Channeling Samples Confirms Radiometric Survey Results of Janchivlan Mineralization
Market Wire, November, 2007
Uranium 308 Corp. (OTCBB: URCO) (The "Company") is pleased to announce that the channel sample results have been received from SGS Group's Toronto lab with respect to 159 samples from the first six trenches in the South Block of the Janchivlan project, located 70km southeast of the Mongolian capital, Ulaanbaatar.
This channel sample analyses results indicates the highest concentrations of Uranium observed to date on the Janchivlan property. SGS Group's chemical assay of the samples resulted in values up to three times higher than those obtained from the field radiometric survey program.
Of the 159 channel samples analyzed from the South Block, 67 samples contained greater than or equal to 0.01% U3O8, 46 of the 67 samples contained greater than or equal to 0.02% U3O8, and 23 of the 46 samples contained greater than or equal to 0.05% U3O8. The highest concentrations of in-trench uranium were observed in the samples from trench CK3810 containing 0.2441% U3O8. The remaining 92 samples contained less than 0.01% U3O8 with the lowest concentration of 0.000893% U3O8 which represents the background value of Janchivlan intrusion.
This batch of results are from the first 6 trenches of the 12 trenches from the South Block, where prior radiometric surveys had identified four mineralized trends with uranium grades over industry cutoff. The SGS Group lab results confirmed these trends and established that the field detectors' reading of uranium concentration is normally three times lower than the actual value confirmed by SGS assay results.
The Company is conducting a diamond core drilling program to follow up on the confirmed uranium concentration features from Janchivlan trenches. It is also conducting additional assays on selected samples to check and confirm the reliability of testing results to date.
Another 452 channel samples from the remaining 6 trenches in the South Block and 10 trenches in the North Block were shipped to SGS Group lab in Toronto on November 3. Assay results are expected within three weeks.
To date, 105m in the South Block and 130m in the North Block have been drilled. The first drill hole, UDH-0701, is positioned adjacent to trench CK3810, the source of the highest SGS Group assay result. The hole seeks to intersect this high uranium content section confirmed by SGS lab analysis, as well as an additional potential uranium mineralized sections identified in the field survey. Drill hole EDH-0701 is designed to intersect uranium mineralization exposed by trench CK3808, where the field radiometric readings are much higher than that of trench CK3810. Drilling on both blocks is expected to be completed by mid-December.
