NEWS RELEASE – March 20, 2017
Blue Sky Prepares to Drill Second Target at Amarillo Grande Uranium
Project, Argentina
Vancouver, BC / Marketwired / March 20, 2017 / Blue Sky Uranium Corp. (TSX -V: BSK, FSE: MAL2; OTC:
BKUCF), "Blue Sky" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an update on the progress of the 3,000 metre
reverse circulation (“ RC”) drilling program at the Amarillo Grande uranium project, in Rio Negro Province,
Argentina. Drilling has finished at the Ivana target area, with 94 holes totaling 1,276 metres completed. The
crew is now moving to the Anit area, approximately 50 kilometres to the northwest along the 140- kilometre long
uranium trend that comprises the Amarillo Grande Project. Drill results for the completed drilling are pending and
expect to be announced soon.
This new uranium district was first identified and underwent preliminary exploration by the Company from 2007
to 2012. The close proximity of several major targets and the near surface mineralization suggest that if
resources are delineated, a central processing facility would be envisioned.
"We are excited to be active in the Province of Rio Negro where a thriving nuclear converter industry exists since
the 1970s, but no uranium production, ” stated Nikolaos Cacos, President and CEO. “Blue Sky’s 420, 000
hectares of property situated in two distinct regions has the potential to become the first domestic source of
uranium for Argentina. The current program at Amarillo Grande is testing the mineralization occurrence at
surface, and, depending on results, would be expanded to test at depth.”
For additional details on the program please refer to the Company news release dated January 26, 2017.
About the Amarillo Grande Project
This new uranium district was first identified, staked and underwent preliminary exploration by Blue Sky from
2007 to 2012 as part of the Grosso Group’s strategy of adding alternative energy focus to its successful portfolio
of metals exploration companies. The close proximity of several major targets suggest that if resour ces are
delineated a central processing facility would be envisioned. The area is flat -lying, semi-arid and accessible year
round, with nearby rail, power and port access.
Mineralization identified to date represents a Surficial Uranium style of deposit, where carnotite mineralization
coats loosely consolidated pebbles of sandstone and conglomerates. Carnotite is amenable to leaching, and
early metallurgical work indicates that the mineralized material can be upgraded using a very simple wet
screening method. The near-surface mineralization, ability to locally upgrade, amenability to leaching and central
processing possibility suggest a potentially low-cost development scenario for a future deposit.
Rio Negro is host to several facilities related to the nuclear industry. Furthermore, the Provincial government is
amenable to mining as a means of socio- economical development. In addition, the Federal government has
expressed support for building domestic resources of uranium. In particular, the Argentina Atom ic Energy
National Commission (CNEA) published its Strategic Plan 2015- 2025, which includes a strategic objective "To
ensure the supply of domestic uranium for nuclear power plants in operation, under construction and planned."
