SKRR and F3 to Test Conductors on
Clearwater West
VANCOUVER, BC
,
June 18, 2024
/CNW/ - SKRR Exploration Inc. (TSXV: SKRR) (FSE:
B04Q) ("
SKRR
" or the "
Company
") is pleased to announce its plan to commence a drill program of
approximately five (5) exploration core drillholes as well as ground gravity and Time Domain EM
geophysical surveys at the 'Clearwater West Project' located in
Saskatchewan
. This work program
is expected to commence in
July 2024
. The exploration permits to carry out the work have been
received from the Ministry of Environment of
Saskatchewan
. SKRR has an option to acquire up to a
70% interest in the Clearwater West Project from F3 Uranium Corp. (TSXV: FUU) ("
F3
"). The
Clearwater West Project is an early-stage exploration project prospective for uranium mineralization.
The uranium mineralization model for the Clearwater West property is basement hosted and
structurally controlled
Athabasca
Basin unconformity related deposits.
Only three shallow drillholes were previously completed on the property (see F3's news release
dated
August 4, 2023
) in 2015 and encountered graphitic shear zones. Drilling this summer will
consist of follow up drilling of the 2015 holes as well as first pass drilling targeting ground Time
Domain electromagnetic and IP resistivity anomalies on areas of increased conductivity along
untested airborne EM conductors on the east side of the property.
The western part of the property has untested conductors that are sub-parallel to the Patterson
Lake corridor which hosts Fission Uranium's Triple R uranium deposit and NexGen's Arrow uranium
deposit located 13 km to the north and 17 km to the north respectively. Ground gravity and Time
Domain EM surveys will also be completed this summer in the west part of the property, covering
distinct conductive areas defined by the 2014 VTEM survey, to develop and define distinct drill
targets for future testing.
Summary of the Clearwater West Property
The Clearwater West Project is comprised of 3 contiguous mineral claims totaling approximately
11,786 hectares and is located ~20km outside the edge and in the south-west area of the
Athabasca
Basin in
Saskatchewan
. SKRR cautions that past results or discoveries on proximate
lands are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved on the Clearwater West
Project.
Basement hosted
Athabasca
unconformity related deposits often feature unique characteristics that
can be identified by various geophysical surveys. A VTEM survey flown over the property in early
2014 defined electromagnetic (EM) conductors, some of which are interpreted to be possible
extensions of the EM conductors identified on the PLS property immediately to the north.
F3's experienced and successful management and technical team, with a track record of three major
high-grade uranium discoveries in the
Athabasca
Basin region since 2010 (Waterbury Lake project J
Zone, PLS Triple R deposit and most recently the PLN JR Zone) will operate and manage
Clearwater West.

About SKRR Exploration Inc.
SKRR is a Canadian-based precious and base metal explorer with properties in
Saskatchewan
–
some of the world's highest ranked mining jurisdictions. The primary exploration focus is on the
Trans-Hudson Corridor in
Saskatchewan
in search of world class uranium, precious, and base metal
deposits. The Trans-Hudson Orogen – although extremely well known in geological terms has been
significantly under-explored in
Saskatchewan
. SKRR is committed to all stakeholders including
shareholders, all its partners and the environment in which it operates.

This news release contains "forward–looking information or statements" within the meaning of
applicable securities laws, which may include, without limitation, statements relating to the planned
drill program at the Clearwater West project (including the size and timing of the work program) and
the expected completion of geophysical work, statements relating to the technical, financial and
business prospects of the Company, its projects, its goals and other matters. All statements in this
news release, other than statements of historical facts, that address events or developments that
the Company expects to occur, are forward-looking statements. Although the Company believes the

numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in
which the Company will operate in the future, including the price of metals, the ability to achieve its
goals, the ability to secure equipment and personnel to carry out work programs, that general
business and economic conditions will not change in a material adverse manner, that financing will be
available if and when needed and on reasonable terms. Such forward-looking information reflects the
Company's views with respect to future events and is subject to risks, uncertainties and

. There is a possibility that future exploration, development or mining results will
not be consistent with the Company's expectations. Factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those in forward looking statements include, but are not limited to, continued
availability of capital and financing and general economic, market or business conditions, failure to
secure personnel and equipment for work programs, adverse weather and climate conditions, failure
to obtain or maintain all necessary government permits, approvals and authorizations, decrease in
the price of gold, copper, uranium and other metals, failure to obtain or maintain community
acceptance (including First Nations), increase in costs, litigation, and failure of counterparties to
perform their contractual obligations. The Company does not undertake to update forward–looking
