卑诗省温哥华，2024年7月29日（全球新闻社）——Bedford Metals公司（TSX-V: BFm，FWB: O8D，ISIN: CA0762301012）（以下简称“公司”或“贝德福德”）很高兴宣布已获得环境部必要的勘探许可证，用于其2024年北部萨斯喀彻温Ubiquity Lake铀矿项目的勘探计划。这一许可证标志着一个重要的里程碑，使公司能够按计划推进其勘探活动。
The previously announced prospecting program at Ubiquity Lake will include investigating and mapping historic showings and target zones identified through successive geophysical programs. The claim block will be surveyed with state-of-the-art RS100 scintillometers, and outcrops from high-value targets will be collected and sent for assay.
本基金寻求于东欧地区注册的主要权益关联发行人的长期升值投资。如前所述，这一审查是由最初MAA评估程序的报告人领导的。Ubiquity Lake 的勘探计划将包括通过连续地球物理计划确定的历史表现和目标区域进行调查和制图。用先进的RS100闪烁计数器对声明块进行测量，并收集高价值目标的露头用于化验。
Peter Born, President of Bedford, commented, "Receiving the exploration permit is a crucial step forward for our Ubiquity Lake project. With this approval, we are set to commence our field activities and validate the promising targets identified in our previous surveys. We are committed to advancing our exploration efforts responsibly and sustainably."
贝德福德总裁Peter Born评论说：“获得勘探许可证对于我们的Ubiquity Lake项目是一个至关重要的进展。有了这个批准，我们就准备开始我们的现场活动，并验证我们在以前的调查中确定的有希望的目标。我们致力于负责任和可持续地推进我们的勘探工作。”
The 2024 Phase I exploration program will specifically target UL2014, where a 2014 prospecting and grab rock sampling program yielded values of 187 ppm U and 449 ppm Th from pegmatitic quartz-rich zones in a granite gneiss outcrop and 678 ppm U and 679 ppm Th from a quartz-rich pegmatitic granitic gneiss boulder.
2024年一期勘探计划将针对UL2014进行，该计划是在花岗岩片麻岩露头中从似长石石英岩质带和砷铅铀的地质剖面岩中产生187ppm U和449ppm Th，从带状石英质似长石质花岗片麻岩中产生678ppm U和679ppm Th 的2014年勘探和岩石抓取采样计划。
Additionally, the field crew will prospect Target Zones 1 and 2 (T1 and T2), high-priority anomalies identified through an interpretation of geophysical datasets by Condor Consulting of Lakewood, Colorado.
此外，现场人员将勘探目标区1和2（T1和T2），这是由科罗拉多州Lakewood的Condor Consulting根据地球物理数据集的解释确定的高优先级异常。
Background:
背景：
The principal target zones at the Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project are northwest-trending subsurface conductive anomalies identified through a 2014 VTEM survey completed by Noka Resources Inc. and Alpha Exploration Inc. Additionally, the Company will be exploring conductive anomalies identified through a 2007 GEOTEM survey completed by Stikine Gold Corporation. A ground survey conducted in 2014 yielded numerous radioactive samples, with readings up to 2000 cps.
Ubiquity Lake铀矿项目的主要目标区是通过Noka Resources Inc.和Alpha Exploration Inc.于2014年完成的2014 VTEm勘探调查确定的走向西北的亚表面导电异常。此外，公司还将勘探由Stikine Gold Corporation完成的2007 GEOTEm勘探调查中确定的导电异常。2014年进行的地面调查产生了大量放射性样品，读数高达2000次/秒。
In 2014, a helicopter-borne EM and magnetic survey carried out by Aeroquest and Condor Consulting Inc. identified 13 target zones needing follow-up exploration. The target model is structurally controlled conductive graphitic zones within the basement rocks that could potentially host uranium deposits. The predicted depth to the basement is less than 50 m, which was consistently achieved throughout the survey area. The company will investigate areas with electromagnetic-magnetic targets and areas with anomalous uranium in surface outcrops.
2014年，Aeroquest和Condor Consulting Inc.进行了直升机电磁和磁性调查，确定了13个需要跟进勘探的目标区。目标模型是基底岩中受构造控制的导电石墨带，这些石墨带有可能是铀矿床的寄生宿主。到基底的预测深度小于5000万，这在整个调查区域保持一致。该公司将调查具有电磁-磁性目标的区域和表面露头中铀异常的区域。
Given the project's proximity to the southern tip of the Athabasca Basin, the Company is pursuing an exploration model similar to Fission's Patterson Lake South Deposit and NexGen's Arrow Deposit, which are shear-hosted basement deposits with continuity at depth.
由于该项目毗邻Athabasca盆地的南端，因此公司正在追求与Fission的Patterson Lake South Deposit和NexGen的Arrow Deposit类似的勘探模型，这些勘探模型都是剪切型基底矿床，具有深度连续性。
Bedford remains dedicated to conducting all exploration activities to the highest environmental standards. The Company is committed to minimizing its environmental footprint and ensuring that all operations are sustainable and responsible. Additionally, Bedford values its relationships with local communities and indigenous groups and is committed to working collaboratively with these stakeholders to ensure its activities bring positive benefits to the region.

The Close Lake Uranium Project lies on the eastern side of the Athabasca Basin, adjoining claims held by Cameco Corporation, the largest uranium producer in the world. The claim is approximately 245 hectares and lies within the primary exploration corridor, which hosts the Keys Lake Mine, the Cigar Lake Mine, and the McArthur River Mine. Access to the property is done through a network of roads and trails.
Close Lake Uranium Project位于Athabasca盆地的东部，靠近全球最大的铀生产商Cameco Corporation持有的权利，该权利约为245公顷，位于主要勘探走廊内，包括Keys Lake Mine，Cigar Lake Mine和McArthur River Mine。通过一系列道路和小径可以进入该物业。
The Ubiquity Lake Uranium Project, covering 1382 hectares, lies just south of the bottom lip of the Athabasca Basin, adjacent to ALX Uranium's Carpenter Lake Project to the east. Situated near the Cable Bay Shear Zone, parallel to the Virgin River Shear Zone, which hosts Cameco's Centennial uranium deposit, the project holds immense potential. Furthermore, it is located 100 km west of Cameco's past-producing Key Lake uranium mine, underscoring the strategic significance of its location.
普遍湖铀矿项目覆盖面积为1382公顷，位于Athabasca盆地的底部边缘，在东部与ALX Uranium's Carpenter Lake项目毗邻。该项目位于Cable Bay Shear带附近，与Virgin River Shear带平行，后者为Cameco的Centennial铀矿床所在地。该项目有巨大的潜力，此外，它位于Cameco过去生产铀的Key Lake铀矿以西100公里，凸显出其位置的战略重要性。
The Sheppard Lake Uranium Project, covers an area of approximately 2250 hectares and adjoins the Ubiquity Lake Project to the southeast. The project area is characterized by rocks of the Mudjatik domain, where uranium mineralization is typically basement-hosted, situated within shears or faults, and formed through hydrothermal redistributions of dissolved metals and subsequent redox reactions.
Sheppard Lake铀矿项目占地约2250公顷，位于Ubiquity Lake项目的东南部。该地区以Mudjatik领域的岩石为特征，铀矿化通常寄生于基底，位于剪切带或断层内，并通过流体热重分布形成和随后的氧化还原反应而形成。该项目该地区以Mudjatik地域的岩石为特征，铀矿化通常位于基底之上，位于剪切带或断层中，并通过水热重分配溶解的贵金属和随后的氧化还原反应形成。
