November 13, 2023 (Source) — F3 Uranium Corp (TSXV: FUU) (OTCQB: FUUFF) (“F3” or “the Company“) is pleased to announce initial assay results for the ongoing drill program, including PLN23-079 (see NR August 14, 2023) which returned 12.0m of 10.3% U3O8, including a high grade 6.5m interval averaging 18.9% U3O8, further including an ultra-high grade core of 2.5m of 38.8% U3O8.
A 3D -DCIP survey by Dias Geophysical is currently underway, with an initial focus on the JR Zone and A1B areas. F3 anticipates those survey results to provide additional input into the geological and geophysical models of the A1 and A1B areas including the JR Zone, which will enhance drill targeting for the ongoing fall drill program and beyond.
Assay Highlight:

PLN23-077 (line 090S): mineralized intervals
- 10.0m @ 0.37% U3O8 (226.5m to 236.5m), including
- 1.0m @ 2.24% U3O8 (234.0m to 235.0m)
Table 1. Drill Hole Summary and Uranium Assay Results
Assay composite parameters:
1: Minimum Thickness of 0.5 m
2: Assay Grade Cut-Off: 0.05% U3O8 (weight %)
3. Maximum Internal Dilution: 2.0 m
Composited weight % U3O8 mineralized intervals are summarized in Table 1. Samples from the drill core are split in half sections on site. Where possible, samples are standardized at 0.5m down-hole intervals. One-half of the split sample is sent to SRC Geoanalytical Laboratories (an SCC ISO/IEC 17025: 2005 Accredited Facility) in Saskatoon, SK while the other half remains on site for reference. Analysis includes a 63 element suite including boron by ICP-OES, uranium by ICP-MS and gold analysis by ICP-OES and/or AAS.
The Company considers uranium mineralization with assay results of greater than 1.0 weight % U3O8 as “high grade” and results greater than 20.0 weight % U3O8 as “ultra-high grade”.
All depth measurements reported are down-hole and true thickness are yet to be determined but the Company estimates true thickness of the reported intervals in this news release to be close to reported interval widths.
