Purepoint Uranium Group CEO Chris Frostad joined Steve Darling from Proactive to report strong results from the company’s winter 2026 drill program at the Nova Discovery, part of the Dorado Joint Venture Project in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin.
Purepoint, operator of the 50/50 joint venture with IsoEnergy, completed 5,210 metres of drilling across nine holes within the Nova Zone. The program successfully extended both uranium mineralization and favourable geology, further strengthening the discovery.
Downhole probe readings reached a peak of 73,100 counts per second, building on previously reported assay grades of up to 8.1% U₃O₈ at the Nova Discovery. Assay results from the winter 2026 program are currently pending.
Frostad noted that the drilling campaign expanded mineralization at Nova and extended the associated geological contact to approximately one kilometre in strike length. The results have also helped establish a more refined targeting framework to support continued exploration and expansion.
Looking ahead, regional drilling at the Dorado Joint Venture Project is expected to resume in late June 2026. In addition, an airborne MobileMT survey is planned for the spring, with interpretation results set to guide summer drill targeting.
