Project Summary:
The Pendleton Project comprises three newly acquired claims totaling 3,890 hectares, located approximately 70 kilometres southeast of Cameco’s Key Lake Operation and 114 kilometres northwest of the community of Southend. The project is situated along the Needle Falls Shear Zone at the intersection of the eastern Wollaston Domain and the western Peter Lake Domain. It is underlain by Wollaston Supergroup metasedimentary rocks, including psammopelitic, pelitic, and graphitic pelitic gneisses, as well as mylonitic and cataclastic rocks associated with the Needle Falls Shear Zone. Additionally, Archean granitoid gneisses, diorites, and gabbros of the Johnson River Inlier and Swan River Complex are present on the property.
Initial exploration on the Pendleton Project was carried out during the 1970’s and 1980’s and included airborne magnetic, radiometric, and electromagnetic surveys, as well as prospecting and geochemical sampling. More recent exploration activities included an airborne GEOTEM survey in 2004, followed by ground-based prospecting and geochemical sampling. In 2007, a ground HLEM survey was completed, leading to the drilling of a single hole, PL-003. This drill hole intersected faulted and sheared graphitic pelitic gneiss that returned anomalous values in several key pathfinder elements. The Pendleton Project is considered prospective for basement-hosted unconformity-related uranium deposits, as well as pegmatite-hosted U-Th-REE and sedimentary-hosted Cu-Pb-Zn mineralization.
