We are a uranium exploration and development company focused on uranium discoveries. We maintain significant land holdings in Colombia and Argentina and our portfolio is comprised of two uranium exploration projects in Argentina (the “Laguna Project” and the “Huemul Project”, referred collectively as “Argentina Projects”) and one exploration project in Colombia (the “Berlin Project” and together with the Argentina Projects, our “Properties”), which offer substantial exploration potential. Our Properties are located within mining-friendly jurisdictions and are supported by established infrastructure. Berlin Project The Berlin Project is our principal exploration project. The Berlin Project contains uranium, which is used to power nuclear reactors that produce electricity, and has by-products such as battery commodities, including phosphate, vanadium, nickel, molybdenum, rhenium, yttrium, neodymium and other rare earth elements (collectively, the “REEs”). The Berlin Project deposit is a geologically rare combination of elements contained in a layer of phosphate-bearing limestone in a layered sedimentary sequence located in central Colombia in the municipality of Samaná, Caldas Province, approximately 80 km northeast (225 km by road) of the provincial capital, Manizales, and approximately 150 km northeast (245 km by road) of the national capital, Bogotá. The two contiguous mineral concessions on which portions of the Berlin Project lie cover an area approximately 9,053 ha in extent. The deposit is located approximately 12 km from a hydroelectric dam that provides a potential source of clean, renewable energy for the Berlin Project. There is a river port located approximately 65 km from the Berlin Project, providing barge-transport to Barranquilla, a port on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. A refurbished rail system provides an alternative means of transport to the port at Santa Marta on the Caribbean coast. Extensive bench-scale metallurgical tests indicate that the value-commodities can be effectively leached from the mineral-bearing rock with an acidic ferric sulphate solution. Laguna Project The Laguna Project is an early-stage exploration project located in the central part of Chubut Province, Argentina and consists of approximately 230,000 ha of exploration claims. The property is located approximately 260 km southwest of the provincial capital, Rawson, and approximately 220 km from the main commercial port city of Comodoro Rivadavia. The uranium mineralization of the Laguna Project is related to “caliches,” which is the partial cementation of the host by calcium carbonates. “Caliche” and “Calcrete” type uranium deposits are surficial uranium deposits found in semi-desert environments. Caliche-type uranium deposits differ from Calcrete-type uranium deposits in that they typically occur in unconsolidated clastic sediments such as gravel, as opposed to cemented sediments in the case of Calcrete-type uranium deposits and Caliche-type uranium deposits tend to have wide surface exposure and shallow depth. Due to their wider surface exposure and shallower depth, Caliche-type uranium deposits are often easier to access for initial mining operations. Huemul Project The Huemul Project is an early-stage exploration project located in the southern part of Mendoza Province, Argentina. The Huemul Project consists of approximately 27,700 ha of exploration claims centered around Argentina’s National Nuclear Authority’s (“CNEA”) historic Huemul-Agua Botada mine, Argentina’s first uranium producing mine. The Huemul Project comprises the Huemul I concessions, including the Cateo Huemul Norte, Cateo Huemul Sur, Mina Huemul, and MD Silvana claims (the “Huemul I Properties”), and the Huemul II concessions, including the MD Mirano Norte, MD Carmencita, and MD Cerro Butalo claims (the “Huemul II Properties”). The Argentinian government discovered the Huemul-Agua Botada Zone in 1952 and exploited the deposit between 1955 and 1975. Historically, ore was treated in a concentration plant at the nearby town of Malargüe. Uranium-vanadium-copper mineralization at the Huemul Project consists of a number of stacked, meters-thick stratabound lenses hosted by an approximately 50-metre-thick packet of conglomerates and arenites, sandwiched by redbeds and intruded by andesite sills. --- The Company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCBCA”) on December 16, 2022.
