U
Mining Resources Inc. Releases NI 43-101 Technical Report for its
Laurentide 1 and 2 Property
Thursday September 20, 10:46 am ET
Report Recommends $1 Million Exploration Program due to Sufficiently
High Potential for Uranium and Tungsten Deposits on Laurentides
Property
NEW YORK, September 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/
- U Mining Resources Inc. (Pink Sheets:UMNG.PK
- News),
today announced the release of the NI 43-101 Technical Report ("Report")
for its Laurentide 1 and 2 Property, prepared by geologist firm
InnovExplo. Key excerpts from the Report appear below, which include
the Geologist's Interpretation; Conclusions; and Recommendations.
The complete, unedited Report may be accessed from the corporate
website at www.umining.com.
19.0 INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS (Item
21)
The Laurentides property is at an early stage of
exploration, and the Laurentides blocks are at the grassroots stage.
Review of available data and assessment reports with respect to
the Laurentides property reveal that although no uranium occurrence
was ever found, many characteristics of the area underscore a good
potential for uranium mineralization.
The Laurentides property is located in the Central
Metasedimentary Belt of the Grenville Province. The Laurentides
no.1 Block is underlain by rocks of the Baker domain. The Baker
domain is known to contain the uranium occurrences of the Mont-Laurier
area. The Laurentides no.2 Block straddles the boundary between
the Cain and Baker domains. Consequently, the potential to discover
a uranium deposit on the Laurentides no.1 Block is better than on
the Laurentides no.2 Block. In 1998, the Ministère des Ressources
naturelles reported several uranium and tungsten stream sediment
anomalies in the area. The potential of the Laurentides property
is therefore not limited to uranium mineralization, and a tungsten
discovery is also possible.
In summary, the Laurentides property has good potential
for uranium deposits. The uranium potential of the Laurentides property
is based on the following features:
Strong uranium stream sediment anomalies
have been detected in the vicinity of the Laurentides property.
The best results included a sample near the edge of the Laurentides
no.1 Block that ran 95 ppm U.
The Laurentides property is located in the
Baker domain, which is known to contain uranium occurrences in the
Mont-Laurier area.
Granites are present on the Laurentides
no.1 Block property, as documented by the Ministère des Ressources
naturelles du Québec.
The Laurentides property also has good potential
for tungsten deposits. The property's tungsten potential is based
on the following features:
Strong tungsten stream sediment anomalies
are present in the vicinity of the Laurentides property. The best
results included a sample near the edge of the Laurentides no.1
Block that ran 513 ppm W.
Tungsten mineralization has already been recognized in the
north part of the Central Metasedimentary Belt of the Grenville
Province.

20.0 RECOMMENDATIONS (Item 22)
InnovExplo recommends a major exploration program
on the Laurentides property. It is the opinion of InnovExplo that
the character of the property is of sufficient merit to justify
the recommended program.
The recommended exploration program is divided
into two (2) phases. The second phase of the program is conditional
on the success of the first phase. In the first phase, we propose
a GIS (MapInfo or ArcGIS) compilation of all available geographic
and geoscientific information for the project (hydrographic, outcrops,
samples [rock, soil, till, stream, lake sediment], geochemical,
geophysical). A high-resolution helicopter-borne geophysical survey
that includes magnetic, radiometric (U, Th and K) and time-domain
electromagnetic components for both claim blocks will be necessary.
We also propose a property-scale heavy mineral stream sediment
survey and a characterization of uranium and tungsten background
values for the entire area. Following this, it will be necessary
to integrate the new geophysical results and complete a revised
interpretation of the area.
Phase 2 will consist of geological work, prospecting
and ground follow-up on selected areas identified by previous
surveys (geophysics and heavy minerals), as well as a ground scintillometer
survey. Geological and structural data will be collected, and
a complementary surface sampling program performed in order to
optimize the drilling program.
Phase 1 is estimated at $264,000 and Phase 2 at
$736,800 for a combined total of $1,000,800. The recommended program
is described below. Estimated budgets are presented in Tables
20.1 and 20.2. The estimated budget for the remote exploration
program is subject to potential incidentals (e.g., no flying hours
due to bad weather conditions), and the real cost may thus be
different from the estimated costs.
