Traction Uranium and UGreenco Energy will begin Phase 1 of their field geology program at their Key Lake South property in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin.Canadian Business Journal
Calgary, Alberta, September 13, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Traction Uranium Corp. (CSE: TRAC) (OTC: TRCTF) (FRA: Z1K) (“Company” Also “traction“) When UGreenco Energy Corp. (UGreenco) is pleased to announce the commencement of its Phase 1 Field Geology Program, mobilizing the Field Geology team to its Key Lake South property in Canada’s world-famous Athabasca Basin. It is located approximately six kilometers southwest of Cameco’s Key Lake Uranium Plant.
Objective: Define drill targets for the Key Lake South incompatible uranium deposit
An area of approximately 4.15 square kilometers has been targeted for ground exploration for the purpose of investigating surface uranium anomalies from quantitative gamma spectroscopy studies by Ford et al. (2006) and the Athabasca Sandstone (AR 74H04-0013) he mapped in 1973.

Phase 1: Boulder exploration, mapping and sampling
The boulder survey will focus on two surface anomalies (‘B’ and ‘C’) from Ford et al.’s quantitative gamma spectroscopy investigation. (2006) look for uranium-bearing rocks to compare with those from surface anomaly ‘A’, a ‘hot island’ identified in the early 1970s. Boulder mapping will be applied to the entire area of exploration proposed in 2022 to better define the contours of the 1973-mapped Athabasca Sandstone (AR 74H04-0013). Representative sandstone megaliths are sampled for boron analysis.
Unexplored since the discovery of Key Lake deposits
Anomalous surface uranium anomalies were outlined in the early 1970s and thought to have originated from a northeastern source that led to the discovery of uranium deposits at Lake Key. Advanced aerial geophysical surveys by both government and industry in the 2000s have confirmed this surface uranium anomaly and there Controlled by structures rather than randomly transported by glaciers.
An overview of the Athabasca sandstone remains was outlined in 1973 by a photographic geological study of the surface using follow-up reconnaissance mapping. After applying the hypothesis that the surface anomaly offsets approximately 400 meters north of the orebodies, this was supported by events in the Gartner orebodies (inset). map in Fig. 1), the adjusted locations of the highest uranium contents (A’, B’, and C’) fit perfectly on the edge of the Athabasca sandstone, which was mapped from pebbles by 1973 (Fig. 1). Uranium mineralization preserved under the Athabasca Sandstone.

Lester Esteban, Chief Executive Officer, said: Our team of professional and experienced geologists and researchers were looking forward to starting work as he headed to KLS to complete Phase 1. Immediately after that, our team runs Phase 2.of the long-awaited KLS 2023 drill program
About Traction Uranium Corp.
Traction Uranium Corp. develops mineral exploration and discovery prospects in Canada, including three major uranium projects in the world-famous Athabasca region.

About the property
The Key Lake South Uranium Project is located approximately 6 kilometers southwest of the Key Lake Uranium Plant, close to modern uranium mining facilities and highway transportation in northern Saskatchewan. Geologically, it sits on the southeastern edge of the Proterozoic Athabasca Basin and is home to some of the world’s largest and finest uranium deposits and operations. Recent discoveries of the Triple R and Arrow deposits indicate further potential for high-grade uranium at the edge of the basin.
