Wealth reports large outcropping uranium zone
Tue, Sep 2, 2008
Wealth Minerals Ltd. rports final results from the initial exploration program at its 100%-owned Vientos property, Argentina.
Surface sampling at the Company’s Vientos property has identified a series of five uranium-bearing exhalative/evaporative horizons at or near-surface. The flat-lying horizons range from 1 to 5 metres in thickness and field mapping has extended these mineralized units over an area in excess of 1.5 square kilometres. Uranium assays of 96 characterization rock samples from across the area averaged 0.23 lbs/ton U3O8 (0.010% uranium), with a maximum uranium value of 1.26 lbs/ton U3O8 (0.053% uranium) (Figure 1).
