Kelowna, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 9, 2024) - Strathmore Plus Uranium Corporation (TSX: SUU) (OTCQB: SUUFF) ("Strathmore" or "the Company") is pleased to announce it has extended the mineralization from the Phase 1 drilling for the 2024 exploration season at the Agate project in Wyoming. The Company completed 100 exploration holes across the project area, resulting in the extension of the Lower sand's northern trend to 3,700 feet in length.
Highlights for the drilling along this trend included holes:
*AG-175-24 (7.5 feet of 0.128% eU3O8 from 103.5-110.0 feet)
*AG-200-24 (15 feet of 0.116% eU3O8 from 82.5-97.5 feet).
*AG-162-24 (16 feet of 0.067% eU3O8 from 87.5-103.5 feet)
In addition, five piezometer wells were completed for groundwater testing and five holes were prepared for core recovery this summer.
Phase 1 of the 2024 drilling explored the Eocene Wind River Formation, an arkosic-rich sandstone which is noted for its high porosity and permeability, and high groundwater transmissivity. In addition to continued exploration of the Lower sand, the recent drilling discovered shallow mineralization within the overlying Middle sand, which is thicker than the Lower sand, and historically produced most of the uranium in the Shirley Basin district.
Dev Randhawa, CEO commented:
The BOD and I, along with our new Director, Mr. Marion Loomis, and technical advisors Ray Ashley and Sam Hartmann, toured both our Agate and Beaver Rim properties on June 26 & 27th.
We are excited to see the higher-grade intercepts as we move further SW. at Agate. The drill results are validating our prediction of the Wyoming roll front model as applied to our Agate property. With continued exploration by our field team and geophysical modeling by the University of Wyoming personnel, I expect Strathmore to further define the east side of the mineralized tongue at Agate and move towards a draft ISR resource assessment.

Note: The geophysical results are based on equivalent uranium (eU3O8) of the gamma-ray probes calibrated at the Department of Energy's Test Facility in Casper, Wyoming. A series E Century Geophysical logging tool with gamma-ray, spontaneous potential, resistivity, and drift detectors was utilized. The reader is cautioned that the reported uranium grades may not reflect actual concentrations due to the potential for disequilibrium between uranium and its gamma emitting daughter products.
