A Saskatchewan-based company has announced plans to conduct $1 million worth of exploration in the Athabasca basin.

JNR Resources will carry out the work at Moore Lake and Bell Lake.

Ken Wasyliuk is the chief geo-chemist for JNR.

He explains that at Bell Lake they’ll be linecutting and looking for anomalies in the ground that might contain uranium.

In total, Wasyliuk says they’ll be doing up to 3,000 metres of the drilling at Moore Lake.

Denison Mines is a partner in the joint venture.
