92 Energy Intersects 14m of Composite Elevated Radioactivity

at GMZ Uranium Discovery

Highlights

  • Elevated radioactivity intersected in the first three drillholes at the Gemini Mineralised Zone "GMZ" from the winter 2022 drill program.
  • GEM22-005,GEM22-006 and GEM22-008 are the first three drillholes completed at the GMZ since the initial discovery drillhole, GEM-004, drilled in September 2021, which returned 5.5m of 0.12% U3O8.
  • GEM22-006intersected a total of 14m of composite elevated radioactivity that ranges from <300 to 2,230 counts per second (cps) on a handheld RS-121 scintillometer.
  • Elevated radioactivity at the GMZ has now been defined over a width of 84m across strike.
  • All four winter 2022 drillholes, drilled on the same section (incl. GEM-004), are associated with a strong and broad zone of clay, hematite and quartz alteration, with common fault breccias and other structures.
  • Drilling continues both up and down dip on the section, as well as along strike to the north and south, with a total of 6,600m to be completed this drill program.
  • Gemini is located 27km southeast of the McArthur River uranium mine, one of the largest and highest-grade uranium deposits in the world.
    Note: All drill hole intervals are core lengths. True thickness has yet to be determined.

92 Energy Limited (ASX: 92E) ("92 Energy" or "the Company") is pleased to provide an exploration update on the current drilling activity at the GMZ Uranium Discovery at its 100% owned Gemini Project. To date, the Company has completed four drillholes at the GMZ, with all four drillholes (incl. initial discovery hole GEM-004) intersecting elevated radioactivity.

GEM22-005,GEM22-006 and GEM22-008 (Figures 1 and 2, Table 1) are the first three winter 2022 drill holes completed at the GMZ since the initial discovery hole, GEM-004, which returned 5.5m at 0.12% U3O8 (refer to ASX Announcement dated 20 September 2021).

GEM22-005,GEM22-006 and GEM22-008 all intersected elevated radioactivity, which has now been defined over a length of 84m across strike (Figure 2 and Table 2). The most intense radioactivity encountered thus far in the winter 2022 program was intersected in drillhole GEM22-006, which cut a total of 14m of composite elevated radioactivity ranging from <300 to 2,230 cps. All drill holes at the GMZ are hosted in intensely altered and structurally deformed basement hosted rocks.

The GMZ is open in all directions and follow-up drilling is ongoing.

One drillhole, GEM22-007, was completed at the Camp West target area approximately 7km southwest of the GMZ.

GMZ Drill Program and Results

GEM22-005 was collared 30m grid north of GEM-004 and tested for radioactivity 25m up-dip of GEM-004. Bedrock was intersected at a depth of 38.0m downhole and consisted of intensely bleached, chlorite, clay and hematite altered basement rocks. A composite one metre of intermittent elevated radioactivity was identified between 212.0 and 215.5m downhole with a maximum reading of 680 cps measured on handheld scintillometer. The drillhole was terminated at a final depth of 308.0m in fresh granite.

GEM22-006 was collared from the same drill pad as GEM22-005 and tested for radioactivity 25m down-dip of GEM-004. Bedrock was intersected at a depth of 32.5m downhole and consisted of intensely bleached, chlorite, clay and hematite altered basement rocks. A composite 14.0m wide zone of elevated radioactivity was identified between 229.0 and 245.5m downhole with a maximum of 2,230 cps measured on a handheld scintillometer. The drillhole was terminated at a final depth of 317.0m in fresh granite.

GEM22-008 was collared from the same drill pad as GEM22-005 and GEM22-006 and tested for radioactivity 25m down-dip of GEM-006. Bedrock was intersected at a depth of 27.3m downhole and consisted of intensely bleached, chlorite, clay and hematite altered basement rocks. A 2.0m wide zone of elevated radioactivity was identified between 245.0 and 247.0m downhole with a maximum of 650 cps measured on a handheld scintillometer. The drillhole was terminated at a final depth of 330.0m in fresh granite.

Camp West Exploration Target Drill Program and Results

GEM22-007 targeted a broad apparent resistivity low along an airborne electromagnetic conductor approximately 7km southwest of the GMZ (Figure 1). Bedrock was intersected at a depth of 17.0m downhole and consisted of an upper sequence of moderately bleached, chlorite, clay and hematite altered basement rocks underlain by orthogneiss and pegmatite. No anomalous radioactivity was detected and the drillhole was terminated at a final depth of 296.0m in orthogneiss.
