Falcon Property
The Falcon property consists of 15 claims totaling 55,699 hectares along the Wollaston trend at the eastern margin of the Athabasca basin in an emerging uranium district seeing a surge in exploration activity. In March 2024, North Shore discovered near-surface uranium mineralization at two targets at Falcon during the Company’s maiden drill program.
Falcon Property Overview 15 claims totaling 55,699 hectares
Falcon is located approximately 35 km east of the former Key Lake Mine and the active Key Lake uranium mill which processes ore from the McCarthur River Mine. Four 100%-owned claims total 12,791 hectares and the remaining 11 claims are subject to an option agreement with Skyharbour Resources Ltd.
Falcon Property Region Exploration Activity
- The Falcon Property region has seen a surge in exploration activity since 2021
- Falcon is located approximately 40 km southwest of two high-profile discoveries made in 2021, Ackio and GMZ by Baselode Energy and 92 Energy respectively, and just west of the Fraser Lakes Zone B Inferred Resource

Falcon Property: Previous Work
- Exploration programs between 1969 and 2022 included airborne geophysical surveys, prospecting programs and drilling; multiple “radioactive boulders” and uranium showings were discovered.
- High resolution, heli-borne electromagnetic (“EM”) and magnetic surveys flown in 2006, 2007 and 2013 cover +90% of the property. High-resolution fixed wing gravity-radiometric-magnetic surveys covering +80% of the property were flown in 2022 by North Shore and Skyharbour. Integrating the 2022 data with previous datasets and new interpretation gives North Shore an advantage and a fresh perspective.
- Approximately 22 exploration holes were drilled on what is now the Falcon property between 1970 and 1981 by several operators. In 2008, JNR Resources drilled 28 holes, uranium values up to 0.235% U3O8 were encountered associated with the EWA Showing. North Shore conducted the first drill program on the property since 2008 in 2024.

Falcon Property: 2024 Target Selection
- Multiple potential drill targets associated with EM conductors within a focus area at the southeastern end of the property were assessed in early 2024
- Three targets were selected for drilling in March 2024, P03, P08 and P12

Falcon Property: 2024 Drill Results
- At P03 and P08, the EM conductor target zones were intersected, previously unknown uranium mineralization was discovered and alteration that includes bleaching, hematite, chlorite and silica was encountered
- At P03 (Drill hole FN24001), samples returned up to 378 ppm U3O8
- At P08 (drill hole FN24002), one 4.7 m interval starting at 42.3m depth, returned 316 ppm U3O8, with the max. value being 572 ppm.

Falcon Property: Future Work
- Falcon is a highly prospective uranium property, previously unknown near-surface uranium mineralization was discovered in North Shore’s maiden drilling program at two targets in March 2024, P03 and P08
- There are multiple high priority untested EM targets that warrant evaluation based on work done to date and more work will be considered at targets P03, P08 and P12
- The Company is now focused on further assessment of all potential targets using all available geophysical and geological data in preparation for future prospecting and drill programs
