Uranium North Completes Land Acquisition at the Aura Gold-Copper-Silver Property
|
| | Vancouver, May 18, 2010 -- Uranium North Resources Corp (UNR -- TSX-V) announces that it has staked and recorded mineral claims over the F13 and Robin prospects adjacent to the Aura Prospecting Permits which were awarded to the Company in February 2010 (see news release dated March 24, 2010).
The Robin prospect is a 200 metre wide gossanous boulder and outcrop zone with known gold, copper, and silver mineralization. The zone extends more than 1.6 kilometres. Trenching results reported from the zone in 1964 show assays up to 0.55 oz/ton (18.9 g/T) Au, 1.56 oz/ton (53.5g/T) Ag, and 9.91% Cu. The only two reported drill holes into the zone intersected minor nickel/copper mineralization. There were no assays for gold from the drill core as exploration was conducted primarily for nickel and copper. No additional work has been reported for this area since the mid 1960s.
"This is a tremendous opportunity for Uranium North to explore this zone from a gold perspective rather than nickel. The use of modern geophysical and geochemical tools will greatly enhance our search capabilities on the property," says Mark Kolebaba, President and CEO of Uranium North.
At F13 gold, copper and silver mineralization was discovered in 1964 by Inco. Samples collected from trenches located along structures with more than 400 metres strike length assayed up to 4.9 oz/ton (168.0 g/T) Au, 1.59 oz/ton (54.5 g/T) Ag and 21.4 % Cu. Reported assay data is shown in the table below.

This is an extensive area with high gold, copper and silver mineralization associated with intensive shearing and iron carbonate altered felsic volcanic rocks. It is a prime target area for gold exploration.
The Company is finalizing work programs for these properties.
