Cosa Resources Acquires Extension to Ursa Uranium Property
Cosa Resources Acquires Extension to Ursa Uranium Property
Vancouver, British Columbia, January 19, 202 3 – Cosa Resources Corp. (CSE: COSA) (“Cosa Resources” or the
“Company”) is pleased to announce it has acquired an additional 41,119 ha of highly prospective uranium
exploration ground along the Cable Bay Shear Zone in the Eastern Athabasca Basin of Northern Saskatchewan. The
newly acquired claims are contiguous with the Company’s Ursa property (“Ursa” or the “Property”), which now
boasts over 60 km of strike length and 57,000 ha of coverage over the Cable Bay Shear Zone, a large and fertile
structural corridor with known uranium occurrences. Historical drilling on the newly acquired claims has intersected
anomalous uranium mineralization that was never adequately followed up , with the vast majority of the corridor
completely untested. The additional claims were acquired via low- cost staking and cash consideration paid to an
arm’s-length property vendor, with total acquisition costs of approximately $53,000.
Highlights
Ursa now covers more than 60 km strike length of the fertile and undertested Cable Bay Shear Zone.
Cosa’s 100% owned uranium exploration portfolio is now comprised of over 87,800 ha of highly prospective
uranium exploration ground in the Eastern Athabasca Basin.
Strategically located portfolio with four properties within prospective northeast trending uranium
corridors.
Keith Bodnarchuk, President & CEO, commented: “ Opportunities to add significant amounts of prospective
Athabasca Basin ground are becoming scarce as competition stiffens due to the anticipated long- term uranium
boom. I’m proud of our team for identifying and executing this exciting opportunity. Large fertile structural corridors
like Cable Bay will play an important role as companies aggressively explore to find the next great uranium discovery.
We will continue to pursue cost-effective value accretive acquisitions and plan for upcoming exploration in 2023.”
The Ursa Property
Cosa Resources holds a 100% interest in Ursa, which is a large property comprised of over 57,000 h a of highly
prospective uranium exploration ground in the Eastern Athabasca Basin, located 43 km west of Cameco Corp.’s
McArthur River uranium mine. The Property covers more than 60 km of strike length of the Cable Bay Shear Zone,
a structural corrid or (Figure 1) with known uranium occurrences. The vast majority of the strike length remains
completely untested. Anomalous uranium and uranium pathfinder elements have been intersected in the few areas
evaluated by historical drilling (Figure 2). For example, historical drill hole CR -8 intersected 0.2% U3O8 over 0.2
metres and was never adequately followed up. The depth to the sub-Athabasca unconformity is expected to range
between 600 and 975 metres at Ursa.
Long linear northeast trends with low magnetic susceptibility in the Eastern Athabasca Basin have hosted some of
the largest uranium deposits ever discovered including Cameco’s McArthur River mine . Given the presence of
geophysically conductive trends, structurally disrupted sandstone and basement units, and elevated uranium , the
Cable Bay Shear Zone offers a highly prospective, significantly underexplored analogy to these better known uranium
corridors, as displayed in Figure 1.
Approximately 3,470 ha of the newly acquired Ursa claims are subject to a 2.0% net smelter returns royalty (the
“NSR”), of which Cosa has the right to purchase 1.0% (one-half) of the NSR for $1.0 million in cash.

development, and production at the Company’s mineral projects.
Forward-looking statements and forward- looking information relating to any future mineral production, liquidity,
enhanced value and capital markets profile of the Company, future growth potential for the Company and its
business, and future exploration plans are based on management’s reasonable assumptions, estimates, expectations,
analyses and opinions, which are based on management’s experience and perception of trends, current conditions
and expected developments, and other factors that management believes are relevant and reasonable in the
circumstances, but which may prove to be incorrect. Assumptions have been made regarding, among other things,
the price of metals; no escalation in the severity of the COVID- 19 pandemic; costs of exploration and development;
the estimated costs of development of exploration projects; the Company’s ability to operate in a safe and effective
manner.
These statements reflect the Company’s respective current views with respect to future events and are necessarily
based upon a number of other assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by management, are
inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies.

looking statements or forward -looking information and the Company has made assumptions and estimates based
on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: the Company's dependence on one
mineral project; precious metals price volatility; risks associated with the conduct of the Company's mining activities;
regulatory, consent or permitting delays; risks relating to reliance on the Company's management team and outside
