Gap GC24-03 (180 diploma azimuth / -69 diploma dip) was drilled as a 25-metre westward step out of unconformity-related uranium mineralization in gap GC15-03 to check the continuity of an interpreted pattern of anomalous uranium mineralization between GC15-03 and historic drill gap GC-15, that are 340 metres aside. Anomalous radioactivity and fracture-controlled uranium mineralization was intersected from 110.0 to 110.9 metres roughly 1.5 metres beneath the unconformity at 108.5 metres. The Exploranium GR-135 handheld scintillometer measured a peak radioactivity worth of 190 cps and the Mount Sopris 2PGA-1000 downhole gamma probe measured a radiometric peak of two,217 cps inside the famous anomalous radioactive interval. Uranium mineralization was noticed as coatings on fractures within the drill core at 110.2 metres in addition to different fractures between 110.0 and 110.9 metres.

The 2024 winter drilling program at Gibbons Creek is deliberate for six holes totaling roughly 1,200 metres to check for unconformity-type and basement-hosted uranium mineralization within the jap space of the Undertaking. This system is anticipated to proceed till the tip of March or early April 2024, climate allowing. Climate situations stay passable for the operation of kit and personnel and the work is continuing as scheduled. Proximity to the group and infrastructure of Stony Rapids provides tremendously to the effectivity of the exploration program for the procurement of provides, leases, gasoline, and extra personnel when required.

2024 Choice Earn-in Transaction
Gibbons Creek is presently the topic of an possibility earn-in transaction with Trinex Lithium Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Trinex Minerals Restricted (“Trinex“), which is a publicly-traded mineral exploration firm listed on the Australian Securities Change. Below the phrases of binding letter settlement signed in February 2024, Trinex can earn an preliminary 51% curiosity and as much as a 75% collaborating curiosity within the Undertaking in two phases over a interval of 5 years by making money funds and customary shares funds to ALX, and by incurring exploration expenditures on the Undertaking (see ALX information launch dated February 28, 2024).
About Gibbons Creek and the 2024 Drilling Program
Gibbons Creek consists of eight mineral claims comprising 13,864 hectares (34,258 acres) positioned alongside the northern margin of the Athabasca Basin.
The Undertaking is positioned in a area that hosts quite a few historic uranium occurrences, such because the Black Lake discoveries in a number of drill holes starting in 2004, and the historic Nisto Mine, from which 500 tons of ore was shipped in 1950 to the historic Lorado Mill at Uranium Metropolis, SK, together with 106 tons grading 1.6% U3O8 (Supply: Saskatchewan Mineral Deposits Index, #1621). ALX holds an exploration allow for Gibbons Creek, good till October 2025, which permits for as much as 20 diamond drill holes totaling roughly 5,000 metres, together with ground-based geophysics, prospecting, and geochemical sampling. Entry to Gibbons Creek is through roads and trails that lead from the group of Stony Rapids, SK, which is linked to all-weather Freeway 905, thereby creating flexibility for both summer season or winter exploration packages. Stony Rapids has readily-available gasoline, provides and lodging for area personnel, and an airport with every day flights to cities and cities in southern Saskatchewan.
Previous to graduation of the 2024 drilling program, ALX carried out a complete evaluate of Gibbons Creek historic exploration knowledge and has built-in that info with the high-resolution magnetic and SGH geochemical surveys accomplished in November 2023. The historic knowledge and the outcomes of ALX’s floor surveys on the 2023 exploration grid present essential traits of the Undertaking’s potential to host uranium mineralization, which is demonstrated by the mineralization present in ALX’s 2015 gap GC15-03 (0.13% U3O8 over 0.23 metres from 107.67 metres to 107.90 metres), in Eldorado’s 1979 gap GC-15 (0.179% U3O8 over 0.13 metres from 134.11 to 134.24 metres) and within the present 2024 drilling program.
Assertion of Certified Particular person
Geochemical analyses on samples from ALX’s 2015 drill gap described on this information launch had been carried out by Activation Laboratories in Ancaster, Ontario utilizing Inductively-Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (“ICP-MS”) strategies on each partial and whole digestions. Eldorado’s 1979 geochemical analyses had been carried out by Bondar-Clegg & Firm Ltd. Laboratories, Ottawa, Ontario utilizing Atomic Absorption, Colormetric, Fluorometric and XRF strategies, which had been commonplace strategies of that exploration period.
All drill core samples from the 2024 program shall be shipped to the Saskatchewan Analysis Council Geoanalytical Laboratories (“SRC”) in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, an ISO/IEC 17025/2005 and Requirements Council of Canada licensed analytical laboratory. ALX requests multi-element evaluation by ICP-MS and ICP-OES utilizing whole (HF:NHO3:HClO4) and partial digestion (HNO3:HCl), boron by fusion, and U3O8 wt% assay by ICP-OES the place relevant. One half of the cut up core samples are retained and the opposite half cores are despatched to the SRC for analyses. Blanks, commonplace reference supplies, and repeats are inserted into the pattern stream at common intervals by ALX and SRC in accordance with industry-standard high quality assurance/high quality management (“QA/QC”) procedures. Uranium assay samples shall be performed on samples that return better than 500 ppm uranium within the preliminary ICP analyses.
All reported depths and intervals are drill gap depths and intervals, until in any other case famous, and don’t characterize true thicknesses, which have but to be decided.
The technical info on this information launch has been reviewed and accredited by Robert Campbell, P.Geo., who’s a Certified Particular person in accordance with the Canadian regulatory necessities set out in Nationwide Instrument 43-101.
