Glenmark Acquires DD-Group Uranium Claims in Northern Saskatchewan

GLENMARK ACQUIRES DD-GROUP URANIUM CLAIMS IN NORTHERN SASKATCHEWAN

 

June 9, 2015 - Glenmark Capital Corp. (TSX.V: GLM, US OTC: GLRKF and Frankfurt: 17G) (“Glenmark” or the "Company”) is pleased to announce that is has entered into an agreement with an arms length vendor to acquire a 100% interest in the DD-Group claims, which cover over 6600hectares along the Key Lake Road in northern Saskatchewan. The new claims will be added to the Company’s Key Lake Road Uranium Project, which after this acquisition will span more than 14,700 hectares.

 

Forum’s identified the DD-Zone and the Molly Zone, both of which are now controlled by Glenmark, as the most prospective areas of the Key Lake Road Project. Between 2005 and 2008, the DD-Zone was systematically explored by Forum Uranium Corp. with airborne geophysics, surface sampling, trenching and 27 short drill holes. At the DD-Zone, drilling was designed to follow up on a series of parallel conductors, (C-1, C-2 and C-3), which were coincident with a regional scale northeast trending shear. Many holes were successful in locating subsurface uranium and Glenmark intends to follow up and expand upon the extensive work completed by Forum.

 

Under the terms of the agreement, Glenmark can earn a 100% interest in the DD-Claims by making a one time $20,000 payment to the vendor and issuing 4,000,000 shares within five days of TSX Venture Exchange Approval. The Vendor has also been granted a 1% NSR which can be repurchased by Glenmark for $1,000,000. This transaction is subject to regulatory and TSX Venture Exchange Approval.

 

Background

The following is derived from the “Key Lake Road Project – 2007 Fall and 2008 Winter Drilling Report” by B. Tan P.Geo. and K. Wheatley P.Geo.

 

Forum Uranium Corp In 2005, Forum Uranium Corp. identified several outcrops of uranium mineralization 200 metres east of the C-1 conductor. The mineralization occurred in graphitic pelite and calc-silicate. Grab samples from the trenches contain uranium values up to 0.72% U3O8. In the summer of 2006, several trenches were dug and mapped in detail. Observations in the trenches revealed that the uranium mineralization occurred in the north-northwest fractures system containing strong potassic alteration and hematization.

 

In the fall of 2006 three angle holes DD-01, DD-03 and DD-04 were drilled perpendicular to the north-northwest fractures system to test the down-dip extension of the mineralized outcrops. Uranium mineralization was intersected in holes DD-01 (0.022% U3O8 over 0.25m and 0.078% U3O8 over 0.5m) and DD-03 (0.02% U3O8 over 0.5m, 0.069% U3O8 over 0.75m and 0.023% U3O8 over 0.95m). The mineralization occurred in fractures and breccias within the graphitic pelitic gneiss and they were associated with strong pyritization which occurred in stringers up to one cm wide, nodules and fracture fills.

 

In the fall of 2007 and winter of 2008, Forum Uranium Corp. completed drilling along the 40 kilometre long Key Lake Road shear zone. Several sub-parallel conductors (C-1, C-2, C-3 and several other unnamed conductors) were outlined by the VTEM survey along this shear zone. Both the C1 and C2 conductors were interpreted as very strong with conductance ranging from 10 to over 100 siemens. Thrust faults with strongly graphitic shears have been intersected along both conductors.

In winter 2007 hole DD-16 was drilled 50 m east of DD-03 and spotty mineralization up to 0.057% U3O8 over 0.2 m were encountered up to 193m in depth. In 2008 two more follow-up holes were drilled on the same drill profile. DD-19 was located east of DD-16 and DD-21 was located west of DD-03 (Figure 6). Spotty uranium mineralization grading from 100 to 786ppm U3O8 were intersected in both holes, the assay results are shown below:

A wide conductive zone over 100m wide with conductance of less than 1 to 4 siemens was outlined at the southern extension of the DD Zone (Figure 5). It was interpreted that the weak conductance could be caused by a wide zone of sulphide mineralization as was found in the DD zone. The uranium mineralization in the DD zone is associated with sulphide mineralization. Hole DD-20 was drilled 600m to the south and hole DD-23 was drilled 1200m to the south. Disseminated weak graphite and strong pyritization were intersected in both holes, but no radioactive anomalies were encountered.
