Pike Zone C10 South Conductor Corridor Extended and Defined to 16 Kilometre Strike Length
New Targets Outlined Immediately Southwest of Pike Zone
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan--(Newsfile Corp. - November 25, 2025) -
CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV:
CVV)
(OTCQX: CVVUF) (FSE:
DH7)
("
CanAlaska
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to report the final
results from a ground-based electromagnetic survey completed as part of the 2025 exploration program
on the West McArthur Joint Venture project (the "Project") in the eastern Athabasca Basin (Figure 1).
The survey and subsequent interpretation products map the continuation of the C10S conductive corridor
from the Pike Zone for 10 km to the southwestern property boundary. As a result of the survey, the C10S
conductive corridor has now been imaged over 16 kilometres utilizing the same survey design that led to
discovery of the Pike Zone. In addition, the survey highlighted multiple geophysical target areas along
strike to the southwest that show similar complex structural scenarios to the Pike Zone area. The West
McArthur project, a Joint Venture with Cameco Corporation, is operated by CanAlaska that holds an
85.97% ownership in the Project. CanAlaska is sole funding the 2025 West McArthur program and
budget, including the increased portion of the 2025 budget, and will further increase its majority
ownership in the Project as a result.

CanAlaska CEO, Cory Belyk, comments,
"Results from the 2025 geophysics program highlight the
growing target inventory along the C10S corridor on the West McArthur Joint Venture project.
Furthermore, it is very encouraging to see the detailed structure interpretation to the immediate
southwest of Pike Zone from the CanAlaska team that coincides with what was observed and reported
from the 2025 summer drilling program. With the 2026 West McArthur program now approved and
fully funded, I look forward to the drills turning again in early January and building upon the success of
the 2025 exploration program."

2025 West McArthur SWML-TDEM Survey Interpretation Results
The Company completed a ground-based Stepwise Moving Loop Time Domain Electromagnetic survey
(SWML-TDEM) as part of the 2025 exploration program on the West McArthur project. The survey
successfully delineated multiple conductor plates coincident with the C10S conductive trend. The newly
modelled C10S conductive corridor, combined with the previously completed 2022 SWML-TDEM
survey, extends the strike length of the C10/C10S conductive corridor to approximately 16 kilometres,
trending northeast to southwest from the respective property boundaries (Figure 2). As a result of the
2025 winter geophysical survey, the entire C10/C10S conductive corridor on the project has been
imaged with more sensitive and higher-resolution modern SWML-TDEM methods, providing more
accurate drillhole targeting. In addition, near the southwest corner of the Project, the survey better
defined a historical parallel conductive trend that comes onto the West McArthur project.

The C10/C10S conductive corridor consists of stacked conductor responses from the northeast property
boundary through the immediate Pike Zone and along strike to the southwest. The main conductor trends
show subtle shifts in orientation. Most notably, the main conductor trend is interpreted to form a duplex-
like structure with sharp changes in orientation in the four kilometres of strike length around the Pike
Zone (Figure 3). These shifts in orientation, combined with multiple stacked anomalies, may represent
structural duplication of the conductive package that generate open-space for the movement of uranium-
bearing fluids through the host rocks. A similar structural duplication is visible within drill defined
conductive basement rocks in the currently understood footprint of the Pike Zone where the graphitic
host rocks appear to thicken and are associated with intense sandstone and basement alteration, and
high-grade uranium mineralization.
Along trend to the west of the Pike Zone, areas that have interpreted
structural duplication of the main conductor trend represent significant potential exploration targets.
The C10/C10S conductive corridor is host to multiple uranium deposits and zones, including
CanAlaska's high-grade Pike Zone and 42 Zone discoveries, as well as Cameco and Orano's high-
grade Fox Lake uranium deposit (inferred resource of 386.7 thousand tonnes at 7.99% U

grade for 68.1 million pounds uranium

(refer to "References" below)
). Outside of the Pike Zone and 42 Zone
mineralization areas on the Project, the 16-kilometre-long C10/C10S conductive corridor is very
sparsely drill-tested and based on the recent positive results and the proven uranium endowment of the
C10 and C10S corridors, the Company believes there is significant potential for discovery of additional
unconformity-related high-grade zones of mineralization. The Company recently announced results from
the successful summer 2025 drilling program where multiple fences of unconformity-associated uranium
mineralization were intersected associated with strong alteration, structure, and graphitic host
stratigraphy along strike immediately to the southwest of the high-grade core of the Pike Zone (see
News Release dated November 6
th
, 2025). The results from the summer drill program indicate the
hydrothermal alteration, structural intensity, and uranium mineralization appear to be increasing to the
southwest along the C10S trend, highlighting the potential for additional zones of high-grade
unconformity uranium mineralization to exist. The unconformity target area was sparsely tested over 250
metres strike length to the southwest during the summer drill program and remains completely untested
for approximately 800 metres further southwest where alteration and fault structures were intersected in a
previous drill program. No drilling of the C10S corridor has occurred from this area to the southwest
property boundary providing approximately 10 kilometres of untested basement conductor.
2026 West McArthur Program and Budget
A $15 million 2026 exploration program and budget on the West McArthur project has been approved.
This represents a 20% increase over the 2025 program and budget. The 2026 drill program is
scheduled for an early-January 2026 start. The contract for the 2025 diamond drilling program has been
awarded and will consist of three drill rigs for the winter portion of the program. Additional program
targeting and funding details will be reported at a later date.
2025 West McArthur SWML-TDEM Survey Specifications
The initial data collection for the SWML-TDEM survey was completed during the winter 2025 exploration
program over the southwestern extension of the C10S corridor using a Supracon Jessy Deep HT SQUID
System by Dias Geophysical. The survey covered approximately 193 line-kilometres across 55 loops.
Following the completion of the data acquisition, QA/QC procedures were completed by Convolutions
Geoscience ("Convolutions"). Convolutions subsequently completed plate modelling and a 3D EM
inversion of the 2025 survey data. The 2025 plate models and inversion products were then
subsequently combined and simultaneously evaluated with the previous 2022 SWML-TDEM data along
the northeastern extension of the C10S trend.
