NexGen Hits 3.46% U3O8 Over 12.0 Metres At Patterson Corridor East

NexGen Energy (TSX: NXE) has released the final assay results from their 2024 exploration program alongside further results from 2025 drilling at the developing Patterson Corridor East discovery, found 3,5 kilometres to the east of Arrow.

Highlights from the results include:

  • RK-24-222: 17.0 metres of 3.85% U3O8 from a depth of 604.5 metres
    • Including 3.0 metres of 10.12% U3O8
  • RK-25-227: 12.0 metres of 3.46% U3O8 from a depth of 533.5 metres
    • Including 2.5 metres of 14.9% U3O8
    • And including 0.5 metres of 31.0% U3O8
  • RK-25-232: 15.0 metres of 15.9% U3O8 from a depth of 452 metres
    • Including 68.8% U3O8 over 0.5 metres

Collectively, assays for 22 drill holes conducted across 2024 and 2025 at Patterson Corridor East were released this morning, including the full assays for RK-24-222 and RK-25-232, which previously were partially released. RK-25-227 intersected mineralized 100 metres up dip from the former and 100 metres down plunge of the latter, showing continuity of mineralization here.

“These new assays demonstrate PCE’s high grade intensity and scale of mineralization, reflecting the emergence of a second major high-grade mineralized system 3.5km to the east of Arrow. To date, PCE is mirroring Arrow in many respects – basement hosted with a high grade sub-domain. Drilling will continue to systematically test both the overall footprint extent and inner high grade sub-domain at PCE which both remain open in all directions,” commented Leigh Curyer, CEO of NexGen Energy.

Assays remain outstanding for 12 completed holes conducted under the 2025 program, while drilling remains ongoing.

NexGen Energy last traded at $9.81 on the TSX.
