Stallion Uranium Commences Drilling on Appaloosa Uranium Target
06 March 2024 - 10:30PM
Stallion Uranium Corp. (the
"Company" or
"Stallion") (TSX-V: STUD; OTCQB: STLNF; FSE: HM40)
is pleased to announce that it has begun drilling on its high
priority Appaloosa Target as part the Company’s maiden drill
program on its 100% owned Coffer Project in the prolific
Southwestern Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Highlights
- The objective of the drill program
is the discovery of uranium mineralization associated with
conductive electromagnetic (EM) anomalies.
- Drill holes are targeting multiple
stacked geophysical anomalies including conductive EM anomalies,
gravity low anomalies and magnetic low anomalies.
- Approximately 3,300 meters are
planned in 3 drill holes.
- Stallion holds a 100% ownership of
the project.
“Drilling marks a key milestone for Stallion as
we move into more advanced exploration with potential to make a
uranium discovery! We have been able to progress the Appaloosa
target from a regional survey to an advanced drill target that
hosts several known features associated with uranium
mineralization,” stated Drew Zimmerman, CEO. “Our systematic
approach over such a large land package gives our team high
confidence in drill testing the Appaloosa target.”
Drill Program
The diamond drill program is the maiden drill
program for Stallion Uranium. Drilling on the first hole is
currently underway and will be the first drilling undertaken on
Stallion’s 100% owned Coffer Project. The Company has contracted
CYR Drilling, a company with extensive drilling experience with a
history of successful drill programs in the Southwestern Athabasca
Basin. They will utilize one drill to complete a 3,300-meter
program on the Appaloosa target. The target area hosts a ~6 km long
EM conductor located on the contact between the Beaverlodge and
Taltson geological domains. The contact between two domains is an
optimal location for uranium bearing fluid to concentrate. The
drill targets are along the identified EM conductor and will focus
on coincident gravity and magnetic lows associated with alteration
which have the potential to host uranium mineralization. The
results from the recent ground EM survey are being plate modeled
which will be integrated into the final drill targeting models.
Stallion will be announcing any anomalous
scintillometer results from the program as a preliminary indication
of the presence of radioactive materials if they are encountered.
Final assay results will be released when available and are
expected in the summer of 2024 after lithogeochemical analysis is
completed.
Darren Slugoski, VP Exploration Canada,
commented. “We are thrilled to announce that drill coring has begun
on Coffer Project. This drilling program is the result from our
successful exploration in 2023. We will continue to update market
and shareholders with the news as we receive the results.”

Project – Appaloosa Target Area
Appaloosa Target
The Appaloosa target is located at the north end
of the 100% owned Coffer project and was first identified from the
regional VTEM survey conducted in early 2023. The survey data when
compiled and modeled with all available historical data showed the
key characteristics for potential uranium mineralization. To best
refine drill targets Stallion utilized the latest technology to
complete an advanced ground TDEM survey over the target area.
Further bolstering confidence in the target, the Shea Creek deposit
(Orano/UEC) of over 93M lbs. is only 13km west of the target area
highlighting the uranium endowment in the area. The company is
currently completing the plate modeling for exact drill targets
while the temporary work camp and trails will be constructed. This
3-hole, 3,300 meter drill program at Appaloosa marks the companies
first drilling campaign in its efforts to discover the next
significant uranium deposit in the Athabasca Basin.
The Coffer Project is located 224 km north of
the community of La Loche and is accessible via highway 955. The
accommodations will be located 12 km away from the drill site and
will be accessible by drill trails. The Company has secured all
necessary permits and approvals for the Program.
