Foremost Clean Energy intercepts 1.0% eU3O8 over 1.4m, extends Tuning Fork zone to 150m
Foremost Clean Energy’s 2026 drill program at the Hatchet Lake South project intersected 0.34% eU3O8 over 4.6 metres, including 1.0% eU3O8 over 1.4 metres in hole TF-26-30. Step-out drilling across three fences has extended the Tuning Fork Uranium Zone to over 150 metres of strike length, confirming continuous unconformity-related mineralization.
1. 2026 Drill Program Highlights
Foremost’s ongoing 2026 drill program at the Hatchet Lake South project has completed ten diamond drill holes totaling 2,113 metres, with five holes exceeding the 0.05% eU3O8 threshold. Hole TF-26-30 intersected 0.34% eU3O8 over 4.6 metres, including 1.0% eU3O8 over 1.4 metres, confirming high-grade mineralization.
2. Tuning Fork Uranium Zone Expansion
Step-out drilling across three fences from the discovery hole TF-25-16 has extended continuous unconformity-related uranium mineralization along brittle reactivated structures to over 150 metres of strike length. All completed holes recorded anomalous radioactivity and hydrothermal alteration, underscoring the zone’s geological consistency.
3. Next Exploration Plans
The company plans further drilling to expand the Tuning Fork Uranium Zone northward and to define its geometry, while also targeting the Tuning Fork West, Tuning Fork East, Beta Grid, and Richardson SE areas. These untested targets are supported by geological and geophysical signatures favourable for additional uranium discoveries.
