Deep Yellow Limited (DYL) is an Australian based pure uranium exploration company with extensive operations in Namibia and Australia.
DYL’s principal development focus is in Namibia through its 100% owned subsidiary Reptile Uranium Namibia P/L (Reptile) at the mid to high grade Omahola Project and the extensive secondary calcrete deposits contained in the Tumas-Oryx-Tubas palaeochannel and fluviatile sheetwash systems.
The Omahola Project comprises the INCA uranium and iron and Tubas Red Sand (TRS) uranium deposits. JORC Code resource estimates for Omahola are being completed and management are confident it will underpin the stated objective of becoming a producer of 1,000 to 1,500 tonne of U3O8 per year at a grade of 400 ppm or better from the combined deposits.
As part of the transition from explorer to producer DYL and Reptile have been building a team of in-house expertise and consultants to complete the required studies and various reports and permit applications.
The Australian focus is on resource delineation in the Mount Isa district of Queensland and greenfields exploration in the Northern Territory. A pipeline of other projects in both countries are continually being examined and there is extensive exploration potential for new discoveries .
