-
Eastern Mineralised Zone has an approximate strike length of 3.9km and 2.5km width. Calcrete hosted mineralisation has an average thickness of 3m. Strong strontium mineralisation (up to 4.80% Sr over 1m from 2m depth) is hosted in a Quaternary clay-sand unit.
-
Eclipse will conduct further reinterpretation of abundant and extensive radiometric anomalies and RAB drilling to test potential shallow mineralised zones within licence area.
Eclipse Metals Ltd ( ~~A~~ SX: EPM ) ( Eclipse Metals or the Company ) is pleased to announce its ongoing evaluation and desktop review of historic exploration within ELA31051 has identified shallow uraniumvanadium-strontium mineralisation in RAB drilling results from the Mt Wedge Station and Rabbit Bore areas in the Ngalia Basin, Northern Territory (NT).
Interpretation of data from a previous airborne geophysical survey has highlighted several untested highpriority drill targets with geophysical signatures similar to other uranium deposits in the prospective Ngalia Basin. Mineralised envelopes of uranium-vanadium-strontium results include 0.5m @ 960ppm U and 570ppm Sr (strontium) from 1m and 1.0m @ 110ppm V and 4.8% Sr from 2m.
Highly anomalous near-surface historical exploration drilling results indicate excellent potential for ELA31501 to host uranium-vanadium and strontium mineralisation. This tenement application area shows all the geological hallmarks for discovery of blind mineralisation. The size of the untested mineralised zone is very extensive with excellent potential to delineate further mineralisation through shallow drilling. Eclipse is planning further work on re-interpretation of airborne radiometric data to delineate the source of the anomalies.
Eclipse Metals Executive Chairman Carl Popal commented:
“Eclipse holds approximately 9,020sqkm of quality uranium exploration interests in the Northern Territory proximal to known uranium deposits. Results from historical exploration highlights the diverse nature of

the Eclipse Metals mineral exploration assets in tune with the growing demand for Green Energy. Eclipse is well-positioned to take advantage of the evolving uranium sector with its diverse Australian portfolio of mineral interests and, in particular, the company's extensive uranium portfolio in the NT, including the Devil’s Elbow and Cusack Bore.
ABOUT THE NGALIA BASIN PROJECT
ELA31501 tenement is located about 300km north-west of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. Currently, Eclipse Metals holds two granted exploration licences and eight exploration licence applications in the Ngalia Basin, with a combined area of approx. 7,550km[2] situated within this extensive uranium mineralised region. To the north, roll-front uranium mineralisation at Bigrlyi occurs in Devonian aged sandstones of the Ngalia Basin.
ELA31501 has an area of approx. 790km[2 ] proximal to Energy Metals Ltd’s (ASX: EME) Cappers Uranium deposit (3,200t @ 145 ppm U) about 3.7km from the eastern boundary of the exploration licence and Malawiri Uranium deposit about 6.6km north-east from ELA31501 (Figure 1).
GEOLOGY
Geology of the exploration licence is characterised by a series of Quaternary lacustrine claypans and gypsiferous units overlain by aeolian sands, overlying Proterozoic granites of the Arunta Block. The meandering paleochannel systems around the centrally located, east-west Stuart Bluff Range, are marked by extensive calcrete development and carbonation of clayey sand units. Three major calcrete channels have been identified by drilling to be flowing through gaps into the Lake Lewis salt-lake system to the southeast. Calcrete-type uranium/vanadium mineralisation occurs as carnotite in near surface calcareous sandy clays.
Radiometric anomaly areas are considered to potentially host calcrete uranium mineralised deposits formed in regions where uranium-rich basement rocks have been deeply weathered in semi-arid to arid climatic conditions. Calcrete uranium deposits formed during the Cenozoic Era in arid areas of high intermittent (cyclonic) rainfall.
Typically, uranium was leached from a large catchment area under oxidising conditions and transported by groundwater movement to internal drainage features such as valleys or playa lakes. High evaporation rates resulted in precipitation of calcium and magnesium carbonates with uranium and vanadium, usually as carnotite.

WORK COMPLETED
All historical data for the Project sourced in open file reports from the Northern Territory Geological Survey (NTGS) open file portal has been digitised and geological maps, assay data and cross sections from Uranerz Australia Pty Ltd have been evaluated.
Eclipse reviewed and digitised historic data, comprising paper cross-sections and plans containing both lithological and analytical data, to form the significant drill hole location map. This review indicated the data are reliable and methods used were appropriate to the industry standards of that time.
DRILL HOLE DATA
Eclipse recorded data from 149 RAB historical drill holes for 1,243m of drilling. The drill collar file is presented in Appendix B. Analytical data associated with each hole has been digitally captured to form a database. The data was derived from laboratory analytical reports contained within 172 pages of NTGS Reports CR1980/0133 and CR1981/0173 and verified with historic cross sections and plans. Significant drill intersections derived from digitising the historic analytical data are shown in Table 1. All drill sample results are presented in Appendix A.

Within ELA31501, historical RAB drilling has yielded near-surface uranium, vanadium and strontium mineralisation hosted in 2-3m of green calcareous sand beneath a surface calcrete layer 2-5m thick. Carnotite is the principal uranium/vanadium mineral.
In general, the mineralisation is related to calcareous lithofacies both above and below the local water table. In the Wallaby Bore/Rabbit Hole Bore area the anomalies located above the water-table occur in two distinct lithofacies:
-
Calcrete along the main drainage channel where carnotite was visible in drill cuttings.
-
Surficial porous clay-sand topsoil with high uranium assays.
Based on available interpreted radiometric data, Eclipse has delineated seven radiometric target areas that remain untested at depth. These represent significant exploration upside for deeper mineralisation. The previous exploration drilling was shallow with an average depth of 8.3m and maximum depth of 16m.

Uranium Market Forecast (Source: The Latest Uranium Market News:Time to shine-ValueTheMarkets )
Hopes are high that 2021 will confirm the start of a new bull market in uranium.
Many people are predicting that in the near to mid-term the nuclear fuel could see plenty of screens glowing green in the best way possible.
The high expectations for the uranium market come amid gains in the wider mining and commodities sector with Mining.com proposing that a ‘post-pandemic supercycle in commodities demand’ had contributed to a new record high of $1.3 trillion market capitalisation for the world’s 50 most valuable mining companies.
The optimism comes after an eventful 2020 that saw uranium’s spot price start the year at around US$24.50 before rising 37% and peaking at US$34 in mid-May and then dropping to US$20 at the end of November 2020. By today (13 Jan), it had recovered to just over US$30. Having navigated the choppy waters of last year, industry figures reckon that uranium prices have the potential to sail smoothly upwards.
Supply problems were a major factor in the last uranium bull market. Flooding in 2006 seriously curtailed production at Cameco’s Cigar Lake mine in Saskatchewan. Cameco is one of the largest global providers of uranium and Cigar Lake is the world’s top uranium mine. This helped set in chain a bull market that saw uranium’s price explode from around US$36 at the start of the year to US$140 at the start of June 2007.
Uranium mining and exploration companies saw exponential equity growth as a result. Uranium Insider Pro illustrates this with a graph showing a 1000x share price increase for uranium miners Paladin Energy. They point out that even large cap Cameco went from under US$4 to US$60, returning over 15x on investment.

�
The financial crash of 2008 drew a line under the last uranium bull run but supply shortfalls are in the news again and fuelling expectations of price rises.
� In the last year, Covid caused considerable disruption to uranium production as several producers shut down operations in order to limit spread of the disease. Cameco’s Cigar Lake went into care and maintenance for six months from March 2020. Not surprisingly, the spot price of uranium started to climb very shortly afterwards.
Production disruption
Cigar Lake re-opened in September and then in December, after re-opening, announced that it was suspending operations again after further suspected Covid cases. Elsewhere, Kazakhstan’s mining giant Kazatomprom have flexed down operations and put in place suspensions in their ISR uranium mines. They have indicated that they intend to keep flexing down production through 2022. Other significant operations in Namibia and South Africa were also impacted by the pandemic.
Whether they extend into Q1 and Q2 of 2021 or not, Covid-related complications are adding to more fundamental supply issues for the utilities which use uranium. In a nutshell, after Fukushima in 2011, there was an oversupply of uranium and the price fell. It hit US$18 in November 2017 and, until recently, has bumped along in a narrow range since then.
These low but relatively stable prices have had a number of effects. One of the most significant is that suppliers have cut uranium production saying that it is not viable. They would prefer to leave it in the ground until the price rises above the production cost. Cameco began to curtail production at its McArthur River site in 2017. Then Canada’s most significant and the world’s largest high-grade uranium-producing mine, the site’s shutdown was extended indefinitely in 2018.
There are different valuations of what an acceptable rate might be but a spot price of US$40 is a realistic minimum. However, with weakness in the uranium market still continuing after production was cut, utilities have been reluctant to renew or initiate long-term supply contracts with producers. They have been confident that they will be able to continue to buy from the open market at a relatively low spot price. For the same reason, although exact figures are hard to come by, it appears that utilities have also run down their strategic inventories of uranium.
Higher prices
Essentially, the producers and the utilities have been playing a waiting game. Many in the industry think that the game is changing as the balance between supply and demand becomes tighter. There are a growing number of industry players and analysts who think that the advantage is swinging back in favour of the suppliers and producers.

Uranium Insider’s Huhn has run the figures and reckons that each year nuclear reactors uses around 175-180mlb of uranium but annual supply is running at around 150mlb. A report on Zerohedge calculates that total mined supply this year will come in even lower at under 120M lbs, a level not seen since 2008.

Increased global demand
The current structural shortfall, and consequently higher prices, look likely to be exacerbated by increased demand. At present, there are 440 nuclear reactors in operation around the globe and these supply around 10% of global energy requirements. A further 53 are currently in construction and more than 300 are proposed.
Every new reactor that is in operation or coming into operation needs or will need a regular annual supply of uranium. Happily, for anyone in the business of supplying uranium, the new reactors which are coming online will also require an initial load of 2-3 times the annual supply to get operational.
Arguably, there has been a change of sentiment around nuclear energy. With many countries building net zero carbon emission goals into their Covid recovery plans, the clean energy credentials of nuclear look very attractive to governments keen to keep eco-conscious voters onside. The GLJ report already mentioned notes that the greenhouse gas footprint of nuclear also makes uranium stocks look positive to ESG investors.
What is not arguable is that last month, in the United States, the Senate’s Committee on Environment and Public Works approved a bipartisan bill, the American Nuclear Infrastructure Act, designed to establish a U.S. national strategic reserve of uranium. Associated mining stocks rose accordingly.
US state support
Approval does not mean the law will be passed but the uranium industry is optimistic that the interests of nuclear power will be looked upon encouragingly by the Biden administration.

==> picture [471 x 265] intentionally omitted <==
Global Strontium Market Definition
Strontium is the chemical element of atomic number 38, a soft silver-white metal of the alkaline earth series. It is a soft, silver-yellow, alkaline-earth metal. It has three allotropic crystalline forms also in its physical and chemical properties it is similar to calcium and barium. Strontium reacts actively with water and quickly embarrasses in the air, so it must be stored out of contact with air and water.
Strontium is best recognized for the brilliant reds its salts give to fireworks and flares. It is also employed in producing ferrite magnets and refining zinc. Modern ‘glow-in-the-dark paints and plastics contain strontium aluminate.
Strontium is beneficial in many ways as it increases calcium absorption. It’s well known that calcium is vital for strong bones, thus boosts bone formation. It additionally regulates bone breakdown and improves resistance to fracture. Strontium also may prevent bone pain and helps restore an alkaline state.
Global Strontium Market Overview
In the report, the market outlook section mainly encompasses fundamental dynamics of the market which include drivers, restraints, opportunities, and challenges faced by the industry. Drivers and Restraints are intrinsic factors whereas opportunities and challenges are extrinsic factors of the market.
One of the key drivers correlated with the growth of the Strontium Market is its use in the dental industry to prepare a tooth-sensitive paste. It is also utilized in preventing tooth decay, which generates abundant opportunities for the Strontium Market size in the predicted period. Additionally, strontium ranelate is registered as a prescription drug in many countries to lessen the risk of vertebral and hip fractures.
It can enhance bone formation and prevent bone loss when used in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis.

| Sampling techniques | Nature and quality of sampling (eg cut channels, random chips, or specific specialised industry standard measurement tools appropriate to the minerals under investigation, such as down hole gamma sondes, or handheld XRF instruments, etc). These examples should not be taken as limiting the broad meaning of sampling. Include reference to measures taken to ensure sample representivity and the appropriate calibration of any measurement tools or systems used. Aspects of the determination of mineralisation that are Material to the Public Report. In cases where ‘industry standard’ work has been done this would be relatively simple (eg ‘reverse circulation drilling was used to obtain 1 m samples from which 3 kg was pulverised to produce a 30 g charge for fire assay’). In other cases more explanation may be required, such as where there is coarse gold that has inherent sampling problems. Unusual commodities or mineralisation types (eg submarine nodules) may warrant disclosure of detailed information. |
Within ELA31501, 149 RAB drill holes for 1,243m of drilling were completed (refer to Appendix B). Sampling intervals averaged 0.5m. All information regarding the project has been downloaded from the Geological Survey of Northern Territory Drill samples were analysed for U, V, K, Sr, Si, Mg and Ca. Strong mineralisation assay results are given as ppm or as percentage, particularly in the element strontium. |

If the exclusion of this information is justified on the basis that the information is not Material and this exclusion does not detract from the understanding of the report, the Competent Person should clearly explain why this is the case. |
The drill hole information has been inserted and tubulated within the document for the drill holes reported. |
| Data aggregation methods |
In reporting Exploration Results, weighting averaging techniques, maximum and/or minimum grade truncations (eg cutting of high grades) and cut‐off grades are usually Material and should be stated. Where aggregate intercepts incorporate short lengths of high‐grade results and longer lengths of low grade results, the procedure used for such aggregation should be stated and some typical examples of such aggregations should be shown in detail. The assumptions used for any reporting of metal equivalent values should be clearly stated. |
No metal equivalent grades have been sourced from historic reports |
| Relationship between mineralisation widths and intercept lengths |
These relationships are particularly important in the reporting of Exploration Results. If the geometry of the mineralisation with respect to the drill hole angle is known, its nature should be reported. |
All drill holes intersected the mineralisation at an angle of approx. 90 degrees, thus, the intersections reported are close to true width. Interval widths have been reported in Appendix A and a summarytable in Table 1 of the |

| If it is not known and only the down hole lengths are reported, there should be a clear statement to this effect (eg ‘down hole length, true width not known’). |

| Diagrams | Appropriate maps and sections (with scales) and tabulations of intercepts should be included for any significant discovery being reported These should include, but not be limited to a plan view of drill hole collar locations and appropriate sectional views. |
All grades have been included with lower grades and significant intersections been reported within the release document. |
| Balanced reporting | Where comprehensive reporting of all Exploration Results is not practicable, representative reporting of both low and high grades and/or widths should be practiced to avoid misleading reporting of Exploration Results. |
The assay results have been sourced from comprehensive historical reports with no representations as to value or indications of resources. |
| Other substantive exploration data |
Other exploration data, if meaningful and material, should be reported including (but not limited to): geological observations; geophysical survey results; geochemical survey results; bulk samples – size and method of treatment; metallurgical test results; bulk density, groundwater, geotechnical and rock characteristics; potential deleterious or contaminating substances. |
The assay results have been sourced from historical reports and have been substantially documented. |
| Further work | The nature and scale of planned further work (eg tests for lateral extensions or depth extensions or large‐scale step‐ out drilling). Diagrams clearly highlighting the areas of possible extensions, including the main geological interpretations and future drilling areas, provided this information is not commercially sensitive. |
Once tenure of ELA31501 is granted, Eclipse Metals will undertake further shallow and deep drilling to test the surface and potential depth of the uranium, vanadium and strontium mineralisation. There are also large areas of untested ground which will initially be targeted with shallow drilling |
