Project Summary:
The Pendleton Project consists of three newly acquired mineral claims totalling 3,890 ha located approximately 70 km southeast of Cameco’s Key Lake Operation and 114 km northwest of the community of Southend. The Pendleton project lies along the Needle Falls Shear Zone in the eastern Wollaston Domain and Western Peter Lake Domain. It is underlain by the Wollaston Supergroup metasedimentary rocks, including psammopelitic, pelitic, and graphitic pelitic gneisses, as well as mylonitic and cataclastic rocks of the Needle Falls Shear zone and Archean granitoid gneisses, diorites, and gabbros of the Johnson River Inlier and Swan River Complex.
Pendleton Project Map:
The initial exploration work on the project was conducted in the 1970s and 1980s, consisting of airborne magnetic, radiometric, and EM surveys, as well as prospecting and geochemical sampling. Additional modern exploration included an airborne GEOTEM survey in 2004, ground prospecting and geochemical sampling. A ground HLEM survey was conducted in 2007, followed by the drilling of a single drill hole, PL-003. This hole intersected faulted and sheared graphitic pelitic gneiss, which was anomalous in several pathfinder elements. The project is prospective for basement-hosted URU deposits as well as pegmatite-hosted U-Th-REE.
