 Rob Carpenter, President & CEO of Kaminak, shaking hands with Carson Gillis, Department of Lands and Resources for Nunavut Tunngavik Incorporated, after signing landmark agreement.
Kivalliq Energy Corporation is a new, uranium, exploration and development company. A ground-breaking partnership with the Inuit of Nunavut and the combination of Kaminak Gold Corporation’s uranium assets spawned the creation of Kivalliq.
This unique partnership between Kaminak and the Inuit awarded Kivalliq the right to explore and advance the historic, high-grade, and near surface Lac Cinquante Uranium Deposit, an 11.6 million pound historical uranium deposit (non compliant with National Instrument 43-101)** with grades averaging 1.03% U3O8. Kivalliq is the first company in Canada to sign a comprehensive agreement to explore for uranium on Inuit Owned Lands in Nunavut.
Angilak Project, Nunavut - Kivalliq’s Core Project
Unexplored for over 25 years, the Angilak Project offers Kivalliq an exciting opportunity to apply modern day technology and deposit models to this exciting property. Its 250,000 acres is host to numerous high-grade uranium ± copper ± silver ± gold occurrences including the historical, high-grade and near surface Lac Cinquante Uranium Depost:
- Reported to contain 11.6 million pounds of uranium (non Compliant National Instrument 43-101)**
- High grades averaging 1.03% U3O8
- Open along strike and at depth
In addition to its uranium potential, the Angilak project has strong gold and base metal potential. A recent grab sample from the Angilak property returned 31.9 g/t Au, 1,170 g/t Ag, 1.18% Cu and 0.24% U3O8. In addition, several new uranium, base and precious metal surface occurrences were found during the 2007 field season further validating the property’s potential.
Disclaimer:
** The quoted disclosure for the Lac Cinquante Uranium Deposit was prepared by Aberford Resources Ltd. This estimate is historical and should not be relied upon since it is not compliant to standards set out in National Instrument 43-101. However, it is relevant because: it is indicative of a mineralized zone worthy of follow-up exploration as it is based on drilling and surface exploration carried out by what is believed to be knowledgeable explorers in accordance with acceptable industry practices at the time of the estimate. A Qualified Person has not classified historical estimates as current mineral resources/reserves, and Kivalliq is not treating them as current mineral resources/reserves since work to date has not verified the historical estimates. Kivalliq has not done any work to confirm these estimates but will be planning exploration programs aimed at evaluating the economic potential of the deposit and environs. It is uncertain if further exploration will result in the deposit being delineated as a mineral resource.
Certain disclosures in this release, including management's assessment of plans and projects and intentions with respect to listings of securities, use of proceeds and future exploration programs, constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties and other factors relating to Kivalliq's operations as a mineral exploration company that may cause future results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements, including risks as to the completion of the plans and projects. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Kivalliq expressly disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
