Ivor Exploration Samples 0.70% U3O8 at Apex Uranium Project, Nevada and Completes Acquisition of Apex Property
The source of uranium is from the Jurassic granodiorites, the uraniferous fluid pathways exist along the Jurassic granodiorite-Cambrian metasediment contact, and the receptive host rocks consist of highly fractured Cambrian graphitic metasediments.Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - April 11, 2022) - Ivor Exploration Inc. (CSE: IVOR) (the "Company" or "Ivor") is pleased to report on geochemical results from grab rock samples recovered during geological fieldwork carried out in late-2021 at its Apex Uranium Project located in the Lander County of Central Nevada, USA.
温哥华，不列颠哥伦比亚省-(Newsfile Corp.-2022年4月11日)-依沃尔勘探公司(CSE：IVOR)(“公司“或”艾佛尔“)很高兴地报告2021年底在其位于美国内华达州中部兰德县的Apex铀矿项目进行地质实地考察时发现的抓取岩石样品的地球化学结果。
The Company conducted prospecting and reconnaissance grab rock sampling from outcrops around the historic Apex mine workings. Much of this sampling was located near the underground workings at the Apex Mine, as well as near old drill locations on the property that was the basis for historic resource estimations and mine planning during and after operation of the mine.
该公司从历史悠久的Apex矿井周围的露头进行勘探和勘察抓取岩石样本。这些采样大部分位于Apex矿的地下工作面附近，以及该矿产上的旧钻探地点附近，这是在矿山运营期间和之后进行历史资源评估和矿山规划的基础。
Dave Forest, CEO of Ivor, commented: "The historic mining grade at the Apex Mine ran approximately 0.25% U3O8, which compares well to our first-pass sampling geochemical results. We look forward to accessing the Apex Mine underground workings to sample the granodiorite-metasediment contact where the strongest uranium mineralization has been historically found. The geology and uranium mineralization observed at the Apex Mine comprises all the key components necessary to discover a potential uranium deposit of significance. To begin to fully understand the size and scale of this mineralized system we have already begun an additional geochemical sampling program for uranium, as well as other associated metals such as copper, gold and silver that are well documented in historical reports."
依沃首席执行官戴夫·福里斯特评论说：“Apex矿的历史采矿品位约为0.25%U3O8，这与我们的首轮采样地球化学结果相当好。我们期待着访问Apex矿的地下工作面，以采样花岗闪长岩-变质岩接触，历史上曾在那里发现最强烈的铀矿化。在Apex矿观察到的地质和铀矿化包括发现具有重要意义的潜在铀矿所需的所有关键组成部分。为了开始充分了解这一矿化系统的规模和规模，我们已经开始对铀以及历史报告中详细记录的铜、金和银等其他伴生金属进行额外的地球化学采样计划。“
The source of uranium is from the Jurassic granodiorites, the uraniferous fluid pathways exist along the Jurassic granodiorite-Cambrian metasediment contact, and the receptive host rocks consist of highly fractured Cambrian graphitic metasediments.
铀源来自侏罗纪花岗闪长岩，含铀流体通道沿侏罗纪花岗闪长岩-寒武纪变质岩接触，容矿围岩由高度裂隙的寒武纪石墨质变质岩组成。
Highlights
亮点
- Sample AMR013 returned 0.70% U3O8, which was recovered by the historic Emma Adit and near a large shaft accessing the Apex Mine.
- AMR013样本返回0.70%U3O8，它是由历史悠久的Emma Adit发现的，位于通往Apex矿的一个大竖井附近。
- Sample AMR008 returned 0.34% U3O8 and sample AMR007 returned 0.12% U3O8.
- AMR008样本返回0.34%U3O8和样本AMR007返回0.12%U3O8.
- Contact metamorphic type uranium mineralized system was observed at and surrounding the historic Apex Mine where uraniferous Jurassic granodiorites and aplite dykes have intruded Cambrian graphitic metasediments.
- 观察到接触变质型铀矿化系统。在历史悠久的Apex矿及其周围，含铀侏罗纪花岗闪长岩和闪长岩墙侵入寒武纪石墨质变沉积。
- The historic drill collars were observed to be vertical (as also confirmed by historical reports), which do not properly test the high-grade uranium mineralization associated along the sub-vertical granodiorite-metasediment contact.
- 历史上的钻头被观察到是垂直的(历史报告也证实了这一点)，这不能正确地测试近垂直花岗闪长岩-变质接触带伴生的高品位铀矿化.
- Powerful suite of pathfinder elements (arsenic, cadmium, copper, mercury, molybdenum, antimony, thallium, and tungsten) suggests a strong hydrothermal mineralizing event was associated with the precipitation of uranium at and surrounding the Apex Mine.
- 功能强大的探路者元素套件(砷、镉、铜、汞、钼、锑、铊和钨)表示强热液成矿事件曾经是与铀的沉淀有关在埃佩克斯矿场及其周围。
Rock sample locations are shown in Figure 1, and associated rock geochemical results are shown in Table 1.
岩石样品位置如图1所示，相关岩石地球化学结果如表1所示。
Sample AMR013 consisted of heavily oxidized metasediment with visual autunite (Ca (UO₂)₂·10-12H₂O). Autunite is a bright yellow uraniferous mineral historically reported at Apex. The sampling area for AMR013 lies closest to the contact between the Jurassic granodiorites and Cambrian graphitic metasediments. This metamorphic contact zone reportedly contained the highest-grade uranium mineralization associated with uraninite and coffinite that was produced historically at the Apex Mine.
样品AMR013由重氧化变质产物和可见的奥陶石(Ca(UO₂)₂·10-12H₂O))组成。奥陶石是一种亮黄色的含铀矿物，历史上曾在Apex报道过。AMR013的采样区位于侏罗纪花岗闪长岩与寒武纪石墨质变质岩接触最近的地方。据报道，这一变质接触带含有与铀矿和铀矿有关的最高品位的铀矿化，这些铀矿化是Apex矿历史上生产的。
Historic Data Compilation
史料编撰
Ivor recently acquired a historical dataset covering the Apex Uranium Project. The Company completed a first-pass digitization of historic data including maps of underground workings. These maps also detail the outlines of historic mineralized zones.
埃弗尔最近获得了一份涵盖Apex铀项目的历史数据集。该公司完成了历史数据的首次数字化，包括地下工作地图。这些地图还详细描述了历史矿化带的轮廓。
The Company is continuing to digitize additional historic data to use in designing an initial drill program at the Apex Project.
该公司正在继续数字化更多的历史数据，以用于设计Apex项目的初始钻探计划。

The grab rock samples reported in this news release were recovered from outcrop at the historic Apex Mine. A total of 15 rock samples were recovered and transported from the Apex Uranium Project to Paragon Geochemical (an accredited mineral analysis laboratory) in Sparks, Nevada for preparation and analysis. Samples were analyzed using a multi-element method with ICP-MS analytical package ("50AR-MS"). Any over limit sample values were re-assayed with an aqua regia solution ("OLAR-OES"). Selected samples were chosen for duplicate assay from the coarse reject and pulps of the original sample. No QA/QC issues were noted with the results reported.
本新闻稿中报道的抓取岩石样本是从历史悠久的Apex矿的露头中发现的。总共回收了15个岩石样品，并从Apex铀矿项目运往内华达州斯帕克斯的Paragon地球化公司(一家经认可的矿物分析实验室)进行准备和分析。样品采用多元素分析方法，采用电感耦合等离子体质谱分析包(50AR-MS)。用王水溶液(“OLAR-OES”)重新测定任何超标样本值。从原始样品的粗废料和纸浆中选择选定的样品进行重复检测。报告结果中未发现任何QA/QC问题。
Some of the data disclosed in this news release discusses historical results. Ivor has not undertaken any independent investigation of the sampling, nor has it independently analyzed the results of the historical exploration work in order to verify the results.
