Alpha Announces Technical Report for Carpenter Lake Project, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Filed by Noka Resources
26 June 2014 - 9:20AM
ALPHA EXPLORATION INC. ("
Alpha"
or the "
Company") (TSX-V:AEX) is pleased to
announce that Noka Resources Inc. (TSX-V:NX) (FSE:2NK) ("Noka") has
informed the Company that it has filed a technical report entitled
"Technical Report on the Carpenter Lake Property, Northern
Saskatchewan" dated June 13, 2014 and prepared by Allan Armitage,
Ph.D., P.Geol., of Geovector Management Inc. Dr. Armitage is an
independent qualified person under NI 43-101 regulations. The
National Instrument 43-101 technical report is available under
Noka's profile on SEDAR.
In January 2014, Alpha optioned the Carpenter Lake Property from
Noka to earn a 60-per-cent interest in the property by making cash
payments totaling $50,000, issuing 400,000 shares and completing
work commitments of $1.25-million, all over a period of three
years. Upon completion of the option, a joint venture will be
formed between Alpha (60 per cent) and Noka (40 per cent) for the
further development of the property, with Alpha serving as the
operator. The Carpenter Lake Property lies approximately 85
kilometres west of the past-producing Key Lake mine infrastructure
and mill complex and extends for approximately 25 km along the
southern extension of the Cable Bay shear zone.
Recent work completed by Alpha in 2014
includes:
Radon-in-water and lake sediment geochemical sampling (see news
release dated May 21, 2014) has outlined several areas of interest
for summer 2014 evaluation. The radon-in-water and lake sediment
uranium anomalies found in the 2014 survey are important indicators
for locating potential buried uranium mineralization.
A property-wide VTEM airborne survey was completed by Aeroquest
Airborne in February, 2014. Some of the recently identified
geochemical anomalies lie close to crosscutting geological
structures and conductors interpreted by Condor Geophysics from the
VTEM survey.
Results of the above work are summarized in Dr. Armitage's
technical report.
An airborne gamma spectrometer survey is contracted for
execution by Goldak Airborne Surveys as soon as drier ground
conditions allow for better gamma radiation signal response. This
airborne gamma survey has the capability to identify radioactive
boulders similar to those found on the Fission Uranium / Alpha
Minerals Patterson Lake South joint venture in 2011, prior to the
discovery of high-grade uranium by drilling in late 2012.
A boulder prospecting program is planned to follow up on the
results of the airborne gamma survey and a further radon surveying
is planned for targets up-ice from radon-in-water and lake sediment
uranium anomalies.
Alpha Exploration has engaged Discovery Consultants of Vernon,
B.C. to manage Alpha's 2014 work programs. The senior members of
Discovery's team have extensive uranium exploration experience in
the Athabasca basin and in several international jurisdictions.
