Foremost Clean Energy Ltd. (NASDAQ: FMST) (CSE: FAT) announced results from a radon survey at its Wolverine Uranium Property in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin, located 15 kilometers southeast of the Cigar Lake Mine. Conducted by RadonEx Ltd., the survey collected 893 data points across a grid targeting two potential faults linked to a notable unconformity offset. President and CEO Jason Barnard stated that the elevated radon anomalies strengthen confidence in Wolverine's potential to host high-grade uranium mineralization.
The data from the survey is now being integrated with historical geophysical and drill results to refine high-priority drill targets. This integration is crucial for optimizing exploration efficiency and reducing costs. The Wolverine Uranium Property is part of Foremost Clean Energy's portfolio of 10 prospective uranium properties, spanning over 330,000 acres in the uranium-rich Athabasca Basin region of northern Saskatchewan. The company holds an option from Denison Mines Corp. to earn up to a 70% interest in these properties, with the exception of Hatchet Lake, where Foremost can earn up to 51%.
As the demand for carbon-free energy continues to accelerate, domestically mined uranium and lithium are poised for dynamic growth, playing an important role in the future of clean energy. Foremost's uranium projects are at different stages of exploration, from grassroots to those with significant historical exploration and drill-ready targets. The company's mission is to make significant discoveries alongside and in collaboration with Denison through systematic and disciplined exploration programs.

The positive radon survey results are significant because they provide a non-invasive, cost-effective method to identify subsurface uranium mineralization, reducing environmental impact and exploration risks. This advancement supports the global transition to clean energy by enhancing the efficiency of uranium discovery, which is essential for nuclear power—a reliable, low-carbon energy source. For investors and the industry, these results may indicate potential value growth in Foremost's assets and contribute to North American energy security by reducing reliance on imported uranium.
