Azincourt Energy Announces Work Program on East Preston Project JV
Vancouver B.C., October 18, 2017 - AZINCOURT ENERGY CORP. (“Azincourt” or the
“Company”; TSXV: AAZ) is pleased to announce initial exploration work pr ogram plans for the
Company’s East Preston project with option partners Skyharbour Resources Ltd. and Clean
Commodities Corp. - a highly prospective uranium pr oject located in the western Athabasca Basin
(see: Figure 1 – East Preston Project Location Map. PDF).
East Preston Program highlights
• Extensive re-interpretation of historical helicopter-borne VTEM and ground geophysical data by
expert geophysical consultant highlights untested conductor systems and corridor trends
• Ground geophysical program planned to refine drill targets over
• Grid establishment, Horizontal Loop Electromagnetic (HLEM) and Gravity surveys to be used
• Work to commence after freeze-up – November-Decembe r timing
East Preston Project 2017 Geophysical Program
Azincourt engaged a highly experienced geophysical consultant, Mr. Lawrence Bzdel, PGeo, to
interpret the extensive historical airborne and ground geophysical data set and build on the already
rich, previous work. The re-interpretation work has identified and prioritized numerous conductor
trends, with the highest priorities being the A, B and D trends, respectively (see: Figure 2 - East
Preston Survey Grid Location Map.PDF).
Trend A is a very long, wide N to NE trending condu ctive corridor with an observed flexure bound
and crosscut by interpreted E-W cross-faults. Trend B is a long linear conductor system coincident
with an interpreted NE trending fault. Trend D is a NNW trending conductor system parallel to an
interpreted fault.
The East Preston geophysical program is expected to commence in November following freeze-up
in northwestern Saskatchewan. Grid establishment wi ll precede the planned surveys. The grid
lines will be perpendicular to the interpreted VTEM conductive trends. The HLEM and Gravity
surveys will consist of 47 line km of each method.
The HLEM data will be collected with a 200 m Transm itter-Receiver separation, and 50 m station
intervals. The survey is designed to accurately ide ntify multiple conductor systems in this shallow
depth to basement environment. Unconformity-related uranium deposits are often associated in
proximity to basement conductive trends, and represent a first order criteria for discovery.
The Gravity survey will record measurements at 50 m station intervals. Subtle gravity low
anomalies can highlight areas of alteration and str uctural disruption. Gravity highs may represent
basement topography, which are also associated with unconformity-related uranium deposits.
This initial ground geophysical program is expected to yield drill targets within previously untested
corridors. The Company expects to generate enough targets for several drill programs.
