EL 24808 (Granted) Exploration, now named Cusack’s Bore
On 11 January 2019, the Company announced positive progress on the gravimetric survey that commenced late in 2018 over the 76 km[2] EL24808. This survey has been completed and results are being analysed. Nearly 1,300 gravity stations were recorded on an initial 400 m x 100 m grid. An area of interest measuring 6 km x 2 km was infilled to 200 m x 100 m spacing.

REGISTERED OFFICE AND PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS
This survey has identified nearly 20 line-kilometres of probable paleochannel targets for uranium and vanadium mineralisation, along the northern side of the Ngalia Basin in proximity to identified uranium and vanadium mineralisation within the Bigrlyi Project held by Energy Metals Ltd. A comprehensive report is in preparation to combine results of all surveys.
