Anfield Expands Its Artillery Peak Uranium Project And Commissions BRS Inc. To Complete A Uranium Resource Report
Anfield Energy Inc. (TSX.V: AEC; OTCQB: ANLDF; FRANKFURT: 0AD) (“Anfield” or “the Company”) is pleased to announce that it has expanded its claim holdings in the uranium-rich Artillery Peak project area, located in Mohave County, Arizona (the “Claims”). The additional 54 Claims are contiguous to to Anfield’s current project in the Date Creek Basin and increase Anfield’s claim holdings in the area to 119. In addition, the Company has commissioned BRS Inc., an engineering firm, to complete an NI 43-101 uranium resource report for its combined Date Creek Basin/Artillery Peak projects. As stated in Anfield’s November 15 news release, historical records indicate a potential uranium resource in the Artillery Peak/Date Creek Basin area of approximately 2.8 million pounds of U3O8*.
Corey Dias, Anfield’s CEO commented: “We are please to secure additional claims in the vicinity of our Date Creek Basin and Artillery Peak holdings, and to engage BRS to complete a uranium resource report for the combined holdings. This undertaking fits our ongoing two-fold strategy of acquiring assets which fit into either our near-term or longer-term production plans. The near-term strategy centers on our Colorado and Utah uranium and vanadium mines underpinned by our wholly-owned Shootaring Canyon mill, one of only 3 licensed conventional mills in the U.S. The longer-term production strategy includes the acquisition of complementary assets with potential to feed additional uranium and vanadium resource to our Shootaring Canyon mill. We believe that the expected uranium resource delineated for these holdings will serve as a core component of our longer-term strategy.”
About Anfield
Anfield is a uranium and vanadium development and near-term production company that is committed to becoming a top-tier energy-related fuels supplier by creating value through sustainable, efficient growth in its assets. Anfield is a publicly traded corporation listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange (AEC-V), the OTCQB Marketplace (ANLDF) and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (0AD). Anfield is focused on its conventional asset centre, as summarized below:
Arizona/Utah/Colorado – Shootaring Canyon Mill
A key asset in Anfield’s portfolio is the Shootaring Canyon Mill in Garfield County, Utah. The Shootaring Canyon Mill is strategically located within one of the historically most prolific uranium production areas in the United States, and is one of only three licensed uranium mills in the United States.
Anfield’s conventional uranium assets consist of mining claims and state leases in southeastern Utah, Colorado, and Arizona, targeting areas where past uranium mining or prospecting occurred. Anfield’s conventional uranium assets include the Velvet-Wood Project, the Frank M Uranium Project, the West Slope Project, as well as the Findlay Tank breccia pipe. A NI 43-101 PEA has been completed for the Velvet-Wood Project. The PEA is preliminary in nature, and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and, resultantly, there is no certainty that the included preliminary economic assessment would be realized. All conventional uranium assets are situated within a 200-mile radius of the Shootaring Mill.
