Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Property Location Map

The Athabasca Basin region of Saskatchewan and Alberta is seeing a surge in uranium exploration activity. North Shore holds two exploration properties with established uranium potential totaling 56,068 hectares at the eastern margin of the Basin, Falcon and West Bear.

The nuclear power industry is in growth mode and essential for meeting CO2 emission-reduction goals. A November 2024 COP29 declaration to triple nuclear power by 2050 was endorsed by 31 countries and 14 financial institutions.

Canada is the second leading producer of uranium in the world behind Kazakhstan, and 100% of the uranium produced in Canada comes from two Athabasca Basin mines, McCarthur River and Cigar Lake. Ore from the two mines is processed at two active uranium mills, Key Lake and McClean Lake.

North Shore discovered near-surface uranium mineralization at two targets at Falcon during its maiden drill program in March 2024. Multiple priority targets have yet to be tested at Falcon and West Bear.
