We remain excited by the potential at Canary and eagerly await assay results from the laboratory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Standard Uranium president and VP Exploration Sean Hillacre added that intersecting anomalous radioactivity in a completely untested area on one of three conductive corridors on the project is very encouraging.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe results from this program have revealed packages of the ideal host rocks for basement-hosted uranium mineralisation, in addition to a potential quartzite ridge which is an important feature present in other eastern Athabasca uranium deposits such as McArthur River and Phoenix,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p><span class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>This article was developed in collaboration with Mamba Exploration, a Stockhead advertiser at the time of publishing. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>This article does not constitute financial product advice.
