Standard Uranium intersects radioactivity at Davidson River as summer drill program advances

Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s ongoing summer drill program at its flagship Davidson River Project in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin. Drilling commenced on June 1, with approximately 900 metres completed to date across two active drill holes targeting the Bronco and Thunderbird corridors. The first hole of the campaign, DR-26-040, intersected a total of three metres of anomalous radioactivity exceeding 300 counts per second (cps), including peak readings of 540, 780, and 1,650 cps between 464 and 466 metres depth. Hillacre noted that both drill holes have encountered strongly graphitic basement structures accompanied by significant hydrothermal alteration, including hematite and clay, geological features commonly associated with uranium mineralization in the Athabasca Basin. The anomalous radioactivity identified in DR-26-040 is linked to brittle reactivated structures along the Bronco corridor, further supporting the company’s exploration model. The summer program is scheduled to continue through August 2026 and is focused on discovering basement-hosted high-grade uranium mineralization along the same regional structural trends that host major deposits such as NexGen Energy’s Arrow deposit and Paladin Energy’s Triple R deposit. Standard Uranium has integrated ExoSphere multiphysics data with historical drilling results, gravity surveys, electromagnetic conductors, and machine-learning targeting to refine its exploration strategy. Management believes this highly integrated approach has significantly enhanced its understanding of the subsurface geology across the project’s 30,737-hectare land package. With two drill rigs operating around the clock, the company is accelerating testing of what it describes as its highest-confidence targets generated to date at Davidson River. Management believes the combination of favorable geology, anomalous radioactivity, advanced geophysical targeting, and strategic location within a prolific uranium district supports the project's significant discovery potential. #proactiveinvestors #standarduraniumltd #tsxv #stnd #otcqb #sttdf #mining #uranium #DavidsonRiver #UraniumExploration #AthabascaBasin #HighGradeUranium #CriticalMinerals #DrillingProgram #Geophysics #MachineLearning #ALS_GoldSpot #ExplorationUpdate #SaskatchewanMining #ResourceDiscovery #NuclearEnergy
