Fission's WAT10-103 expands J-zone uranium discovery
2010-08-17 09:47 ET - News Release
FISSION ENERGY CORP.: WESTERN VERTICAL STEP-OUT DRILLING AT FISSION'S WATERBURY LAKE PROJECT EXPANDS & WIDENS J-zone-LATEST RESULTS INCLUDE 2.24M OF "OFF-SCALE" RADIOACTIVITY
Fission Energy Corp. and its joint venture partner, the KEPCO Consortium's hole WAT10-103, a vertical step-out drill hole at its Waterbury lake project in the Athabasca basin, has expanded and widened the J-zone uranium discovery at its western margin. Hole WAT10-103 was collared 10 metres south of hole WAT 10-093 (2 m grading 1.12 per cent U308; see news release dated June 21, 2010, in Stockwatch), and more importantly, intersected a much wider 17 metres (191 metres to 208 metres) of variable radioactive mineralization at the unconformity, including 2.24 metres (193.26 metres to 195.5 metres) of off-scale (counts per second greater than 9,999) radioactivity. To date, two vertical step-out holes targeting the J-zone, WAT10-098A and WAT10-099 (see news release dated Aug. 9 in Stockwatch) have extended the mineralized boundary to the north of the previously known mineralization delineated during the winter 2010 drilling program, while hole WAT10-103 has now further extended mineralization on trend to the west. Drilling is continuing.
J-east zone
The J-east zone, located east of the main J-zone discovery, near Fission's property boundary, continues to develop as a new area of interest. Two drill holes, WAT10-100 and WAT10-102 were recently completed. Hole WAT10-102, drilled 90 m to the east of the J-zone, identified a 17-metre wide intersection of moderately to locally strong radioactivity in strongly hematite/limonite altered pelitic basement rocks (220.0 metres to 237.0 metres). Hole WAT10-100 intersected a 10.5-metre zone of weak anomalous radioactivity in the basement rocks (292.5 metres to 303 metres) within weak graphitic and moderately altered pelite. The mineralization found in the basement rocks at J-east zone correlates with known mineralization found beyond Fission's property boundary. This finding suggests further potential for basement type mineralization at the J-zone east, in contrast to the main J-zone discovery, which continues to demonstrate mineralization focused at the unconformity.
Structural and geologic drilling
Finally, hole WAT10-101B, a follow-up angled hole to WAT10-097, was drilled for structural and geologic information purposes. Its primary purpose is to help define the geology and fault structures, to the north of the J-zone and at the western extent of known mineralization within the prospective 3-kilometre long east-west corridor.
Given that the mineralization at the J-zone encountered appears to be almost flat-lying, drill intercepts from the vertically collared drill hole WAT10-103 reported herein are approximately true thickness. The geometry of the mineralization at J-east is not yet established and thus true thickness may differ from downhole thickness.
Hole WAT10-103 (J-zone)
WAT10-103 encountered moderate to very strong clay alteration from 175 metres to 222 metres, with the most intense alteration associated with mineralization at and near the unconformity (197.0 metres). A broad interval of continuously anomalous and variable radioactivity was intersected from 191.0 metres to 208.0 metres, including a 2.24-metre-wide interval (193.26 metres to 195.5 metres) of greater than 9,999 cps off-scale radioactivity. A lower zone of anomalous radioactivity was intersected from 228 to 229.5 metres with radioactivity up to 4,200 cps.
The sandstone has variable pervasive and fracture controlled limonitic alteration throughout and strong hematite and chlorite clay alteration is prevalent from 175.0 metres to the unconformity. Strong hematite clay alteration continued in the basement to 207.7 metres, transitional to chloritic clay from 207.7 metres to 222 metres. Less intense chloritic alteration persists to 262.4 metres. The basement rocks consist of pelitic rocks throughout.
WAT10-103 was drilled from a barge set-up collared 10 metres south of hole WAT10-093 and completed to a depth of 275 metres.
Hole WAT10-102 (J-east zone)
WAT10-102 encountered a broad interval of continuously anomalous and variable radioactivity and mineralization in pelitic basement rocks below the unconformity (198.7 m) from 220.0 m to 237.0 m, with readings up to 6,700 cps. This 17-metre-wide interval is characterized by very strong hematite alteration from 220 to 224.5 m, abruptly changing to strong chloritic alteration from 224.5-237.0m.
Moderate to locally strong limonite plus/minus hematite alteration is present in the sandstone from 168.8 -- to the unconformity. A strong bleached zone is present from the unconformity to 211.7 m, grading to chloritic alteration which persists to 247 m. The basement rocks consist of pelitic rocks down to 287.8 m. From 287.8 m to EOH (323.0 m) the basement rocks consist of mixed pelitic and semipelitic gneiss, with minor amounts of quartz-feldspar gneiss.
WAT10-103 was drilled from a barge set-up collared 45 m northeast of hole WAT10-094A and completed to a depth of 323 m.
Hole WAT10-100 (J-east zone)
WAT10-100 encountered a broad zone of weakly anomalous radioactivity from 292.0 to 302.5 m within strongly chlorite clay altered and faulted graphitic pelitic basement rocks below the unconformity (200.0 m).
Moderate to locally strong limonite clay alteration is present in the sandstone from 195.4 m to the unconformity. Moderate to strong clay alteration persists in the basement to 232m. A lower interval of moderate to locally strong chlorite alteration is present from 273.4 m to 327.5 m. The basement rocks consist of pelitic rocks from the unconformity to 350.0 m (EOH).
WAT10-100 was drilled from a barge set-up collared 30 m northeast of hole WAT10-094A and completed to a depth of 350 m.
Hole WAT10-101B (structural and geologic information) is an angle hole collared from shore and oriented to the southeast, primarily designed to intersect the northern hanging wall contact of the favourable pelitic basement lithology corridor and structures believed to be important controls of the J-zone mineralization near the known western extent of the J-zone. The unconformity was intersected approximately 50 m to the north of WAT10-093 at a depth of 238.62 m.
Moderate to very strong limonite plus/minus hematite clay alteration was encountered in the sandstone from 218.2 m to the unconformity. Moderate to strong clay alteration continued in the basement rocks below the unconformity to 242 m. Immediately below the unconformity, the basement rocks consisted of a quartz-feldspar granofel. The pelitic rock hanging wall contact was intersected at 260.56 m and this lithologic package continued to 349.1 m, below which a quartz-feldspar gneiss encountered to the end of hole (365.0 m). This places the hanging wall pelitic sequence further to the north than expected resulting in a wider prospective lithologic corridor than previously modeled (similar to the results of hole WAT10-097 as highlighted in news release dated Aug. 9 in Stockwatch). No mineralization was encountered.
The hole was collared at an azimuth of 150 degrees and a dip of negative 57 degrees.
An updated drill hole map and a table summarizing drill core hand-held scintillometer readings can be found on the company's website.
All holes will be radiometrically surveyed with a Mount Sopris 2GHF triple gamma probe. The triple gamma probe uses both a Na-I scintillation crystal and a ZP1320 high flux Geiger-Mueller tube pair, which allows better resolution in strongly radiometric intervals.
Natural gamma radiation in drill core that is reported in this news release was measured in counts per second (cps) using a hand-held Exploranium GR-110G total count gamma-ray scintillometer. The reader is cautioned that scintillometer readings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured, and should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials. All intersections are downhole, core interval measurements and true thickness is yet to be determined.
Split core samples from the mineralized section of core will be taken continuously through the mineralized intervals and submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 accredited facility) of Saskatoon for analysis, which includes U3O8 (weight per cetn) and fire assay for gold. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63 element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry (partial digestion) and boron. Chemical results will be released when received. Further updates will be provided.
The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101 and reviewed on behalf of the company by Ross McElroy, PGeol, president and chief operating officer for Fission Energy Corp., a qualified person.

Fission finds further radioactivity at Waterbury
2010-08-09 09:15 ET - News Release
Mr. Ross McElroy reports
FISSION'S SUMMER DRILL PROGRAM CONTINUES TO EXPAND J-ZONE TO THE NORTH: LATEST VERTICAL STEP-OUT INTERSECTS 5M OF HIGHLY RADIOACTIVE MINERALIZATION AT THE UNCONFORMITY
Fission Energy Corp. and its joint-venture partner, the Kepco Consortium, have expanded the J zone to the north through the latest vertical step-out drill hole at their Waterbury Lake project in the Athabasca basin. Hole WAT10-099, the third hole to be completed to date at Fission's summer drill program, was collared 10 metres north of Hole WAT 10-079 (7.5 metres grading 1.89 per cent U308; see news release in Stockwatch dated May 27, 2010). It intersected five metres of highly radioactive mineralization at the unconformity, including three intercepts totalling 0.9 metre of off-scale (counts per second greater than 9,999) radioactivity. The two vertical step-out holes targeting the J zone, hole WAT10-098A (see news release dated Aug. 3) and now WAT10-099, have extended the mineralized boundary to the north of the previously known mineralization delineated during the winter 2010 drilling program, and have reaffirmed the continuity and strength of the unconformity mineralization. Separately, WAT10-097, an angled hole, which was drilled for structural and geologic information purposes, was completed from land and oriented to the southeast of the J zone.
Given that the mineralization encountered appears to be almost flat lying, drill intercepts from the vertically collared drill hole WAT10-099 reported herein are approximately true thickness.
Hole WAT10-099 encountered moderate to very strong clay alteration from 160 metres to 231 metres, with the most intense alteration associated with mineralization at or near the unconformity (196.3). A broad interval of continuously anomalous and variable radioactivity was intersected from 191.5 metres to 202.0 metres, with the strongest radioactivity within a five-metre interval from 195.0 to 200.0 metres. Within this interval, three separate intercepts recorded greater than 9,999 counts per second for a combined width of 0.9 metre of off-scale radioactivity.
The altered sandstone is strongly limonitic throughout, with hematite and chlorite clay prevalent from 186.0 metres to the unconformity. Strong limonite and hematite clay alteration continued in the basement to 200 metres, transitional to chloritic clay from 200 metres to 231 metres. A deeper interval of moderate-to-strongly altered basement was intersected from 269 to 296 metres, associated with a graphitic-faulted interval. The basement rocks consist of pelitic rocks throughout.
WAT10-099 was drilled from a barge set-up collared 10 metres north of hole WAT10-079 and completed to a depth of 305 metres.
Hole WAT10-097 an angle hole collared from shore and oriented to the southeast, primarily designed to intersect the northern contact of the favourable pelitic basement lithology corridor and structures believed to be important controls of the J zone mineralization. The unconformity was intersected approximately 40 metres to the north of WAT10-083B at a depth of 242.6 metres. Weak-to-moderate limonite plus/minus hematite clay alteration is pervasive from 215 metres to 272 metres. Immediately below the unconformity, the basement rocks consisted of a quartz-feldspar granofel. The pelitic rock contact was intersected at 266 metres and this lithologic package continued to the end of hole (293.0 metres). This places the hangingwall pelitic sequence further to the north than expected resulting in a wider prospective lithologic corridor than previously modelled. No mineralization was encountered.
The hole was collared at an azimuth of 151 degrees and a dip of minus-57 degrees.
An updated drill hole map and a table summarizing drill core hand-held scintillometer readings can be found on the company's website.
All holes will be radiometrically surveyed with a Mount Sopris 2GHF triple gamma probe. The triple gamma probe uses both a Na-I scintillation crystal and a ZP1320 high-flux Geiger-Mueller tube pair, which allows better resolution in strongly radiometric intervals.

Split core samples from the mineralized section of core will be taken continuously through the mineralized intervals and submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025:2005-accredited facility) of Saskatoon for analysis, which includes U3O8 (weight percentage) and fire assay for gold. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63-element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry (partial digestion) and boron. Chemical results will be released when received. Further updates will be provided.

Weak-to-moderate limonite plus/minus hematite clay alteration is pervasive from 215 metres to 272 metres. Immediately below the unconformity, the basement rocks consisted of a quartz-feldspar granofel. The pelitic rock contact was intersected at 266 metres and this lithologic package continued to the end of hole (293.0 metres). This places the hangingwall pelitic sequence further to the north than expected resulting in a wider prospective lithologic corridor than previously modelled. No mineralization was encountered.
The hole was collared at an azimuth of 151 degrees and a dip of minus-57 degrees.
An updated drill hole map and a table summarizing drill core hand-held scintillometer readings can be found on the company's website.
All holes will be radiometrically surveyed with a Mount Sopris 2GHF triple gamma probe. The triple gamma probe uses both a Na-I scintillation crystal and a ZP1320 high-flux Geiger-Mueller tube pair, which allows better resolution in strongly radiometric intervals.
Natural gamma radiation in drill core that is reported in this news release was measured in counts per second using a hand-held Exploranium GR-110G total-count gamma-ray scintillometer. The reader is cautioned that scintillometer readings are not directly or uniformly related to uranium grades of the rock sample measured. They should be used only as a preliminary indication of the presence of radioactive materials. All intersections are downhole, core interval measurements and true thickness is yet to be determined.
Split core samples from the mineralized section of core will be taken continuously through the mineralized intervals and submitted to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025:2005-accredited facility) of Saskatoon for analysis, which includes U3O8 (weight percentage) and fire assay for gold. All samples sent for analysis will include a 63-element ICP-OES, uranium by fluorimetry (partial digestion) and boron. Chemical results will be released when received. Further updates will be provided.
The technical information in this news release has been prepared in accordance with the Canadian regulatory requirements set out in National Instrument 43-101 and reviewed on behalf of the company by Ross McElroy, PGeol, president and chief operating officer for Fission Energy, a qualified person.
