KENORA URANIUM PROJECT

Uranium was first discovered in the area during 1949 in an outcrop near the shore of Willard Lake (Click here to enlarge map at side ). This was followed by the discovery of the high-grade Richard Lake deposit by Campbell and McFarland in the early 1950’s and numerous other occurrences (Hawk Lake, Bee Lake, Kenoratomic, Quebec Ascot, Viceroy, Wilson etc.) along the 45 kilometre belt. Owing to falling uranium prices in the late 1950’s very little exploration was undertaken in the area until the early 1970’s when renewed demand resulted in significant increases in uranium prices. The area once again experienced an increase in activity and a number of new uranium occurrences were discovered, including 14 separate showings by the Ontario Geological Survey (OGS) while mapping in the area, as well as the Coulee Mines, Bridges Township and Kimber Lake showings. Current fieldwork by Delta Uranium has also uncovered significant new radioactive showings on the property.
