Abstract:
Standard Uranium – Modern Exploration Across the World-Famous Athabasca Basin
Standard Uranium is a Canadian uranium explorer and project generator searching for the next major discovery across a portfolio of 13 high-quality projects strategically located within the main uranium-rich districts of the Athabasca Basin. The Athabasca Basin represents an area where mineral resources have been discovered under cover for decades.
Standard is leveraging the integration of novel geophysical methods to image potentially mineralized structures on their flagship Davidson River Project. Davidson River is in the southwest Athabasca uranium district and encapsulates the inferred extension of the structural trends that host the Arrow and Triple R uranium deposits.
This talk will highlight how the Company is integrating three new datasets – Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT), Horizontal Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR), and ground gravity data – to develop new targets for 2026 drilling. In addition, the Company is exploring the Corvo and Rocas Projects using modern technology, and drilling for the first time in 2026.
Overall, this presentation will outline the Company’s ambitious exploration strategy across multiple projects in 2026, applying a multidisciplinary approach to high-grade uranium exploration.
