F3 Uranium reports strong alteration at Patterson Lake North Project
F3 Uranium Corp. has reported positive results from its 2026 summer exploration program at the Patterson Lake North Project in Canada’s Athabasca Basin. Two drill holes, PLN26-228 and PLN26-229, intersected strong alteration and prospective structures.
Notably, hole PLN26-229 represents a 950-meter step-out from the company’s Tetra zone discovery. The hole cut strong basement bleaching comparable to the alteration seen at the Tetra zone, suggesting the alteration system is more extensive than previously identified. Handheld scintillometer readings from PLN26-228 exceeded 300 counts per second (cps) over two 0.5-meter intervals, with peaks of 480 cps and 380 cps.
The company intends to conduct at least one follow-up hole at Target Area 1 as part of an approximately 4,000-meter drilling program.
