Highlights:
- District has been the 4th most prolific uranium producer in the state of Utah having produced 7.5 million pounds of U3O8 through 2021 with an average grade of 0.35% U3O8.1
- In addition, the district has produced 10.0 million pounds of V2O5.
- Advanced projects include the Hop Creek, La Sal Creek, UH3, and Vanadium Queen Projects, each of which are detailed in extensive data files containing underground maps, drill hole data and company reports indicating historic resources remaining following cessation of mining.
- Select projects will be chosen for late 2025 early 2026 NI 43-101 reports.
The La Sal Creek Property is located approximately 40 miles west of Naturita, Colorado, and 25 miles southeast of Moab, UT, at the western end of Paradox Valley in Montrose County, Colorado. The property encompasses 4 claims covering 85 acres (0.34 km²). Situated just one mile from the Utah-Colorado state line, the property lies within the La Sal Creek District, a district known for its historic uranium production.
Historical resource estimates indicate “Indicated and Inferred Ore” totaling 34,824 tons with an average grade of 0.26% U₃O₈, amounting to approximately 179,170 pounds of uranium. Urano Energy has secured historical maps and geological reports that support these resource estimates and highlight mineralization trends across the property.
Estimated Historical Uranium (“U₃O₈”) and Vanadium (“V₂O₅”)”Indicated & Inferred Ore” and “Mineral Resources”
The Company is continuing analysis and confirmation work to define additional historical uranium and vanadium reserves and resources across the portfolio of projects, all of which have been past producers. The Company has reports, drill hole and mine maps as well as reserves and resource estimates for a majority of the additional properties.
