CAT STRATEGIC METALS ANNOUNCES NEW TECHNICAL ADVISOR TO HELP
ADVANCE THE RECENTLY ACQUIRED SOUTH PRESTON URANIUM PROJECT IN
CANADA’S PROLIFIC ATHABASCA BASIN.
Vancouver, BC MARCH 22, 2021 CAT Strategic Metals Corporation (CSE: CAT) (“CAT” or the
"Company") announces that it has engaged Leonard B. Van Betuw as technical advisor to the
Company to consult on a variety of corporate matters. In particular, Mr. Van Betuw will focus his
initial efforts on the recently acquired South Preston Uranium Project in the prolific Athabasca
Basin in northern Saskatchewan. The Athabasca Basin is known as the one of the world’s
leading sources of high-grade uranium, supplying ~20% of the world’s uranium.
Mr. Van Betuw has a BSc (Hon.) Degree in Geophysics with more than 30 years’ experience
and has successfully implemented an applied sciences approach to exploration throughout his
career through the integration of a broad suite of Geophysical tools in combination with the use
of advanced seismic techniques. Data generated from his applied sciences approach to seismic
imaging and analysis of the associated attributes have repeatedly resulted in material economic
discoveries and substantially the overall economic development of targeted resources. Mr. Van
Betuw has consulted to many significant companies and agencies over the years, including
DeBeers, Cameco, Windspear, Shore Gold, Placer Dome, Barrick Gold, HudBay Mining and
Smelting, the Geological Survey of Canada, as well as the United States Geological Survey.
In addition to his technical expertise, Mr. Van Betuw has extensive experience working with First
Nations groups, which is an important part of responsible and ongoing exploration and
development work in northern Saskatchewan. He will be key to forming the go-forward program
and designing the exploration activities associated with the South Preston Uranium Project, and
will supervise the fulltime social liaison with the First Nations stakeholders in the area.
The South Preston Uranium Project
The South Preston Uranium Property is located in the southwest area of Canada’s Athabasca
Basin, which is known to host some of the world’s highest-grade uranium deposits. Recent
discoveries in the region include the Arrow uranium deposit discovered by NexGen Energy Ltd.
and the Triple R (PLS) uranium deposit being advanced by Fission Uranium Corp. The CAT
property is comprised of 29,395 hectares and shares more than 10km of the adjacent property
border with NexGen Energy, as well as more than 18.5 km of continuous project boundary with
Orano (a leading global uranium producer), and 50 km of contiguous claim border with Azincourt
Energy Corp.
