  • Joint Venture with Cameco (TSX: CCO ; NYSE: CCJ) at West McArthur Lake has Large Halo and Plenty of Potential: $25 million was spent on exploration by Mitsubishi before they retrenched from the region. Drill results illustrate a large halo of mineralization extending to surface and highlight grades of 5% and 8% U3O8 indicating the potential of a large-scale feeder zone.
  • New Uranium Targets Discovered at Moon Project: Results from winter field operations at Joint Venture with Denison Mines Corp. (TSX: DML ; AMEX:DNN) results in the definition of three additional targets.  Denison has now completed the spending requirement under the option agreement and earned a 75% interest in the project.

  • Free “Diamond” Option: CanAlaska has a portfolio of kimberlite targets that were only briefly explored by De Beers in 2016.
  • Strong Management Team: Based on their geological knowledge of the region and a well-established Canadian-based exploration team, the Company is well-positioned to take advantage of opportunities in the region.
  • Project Generator Model Reduces Risk: A diversified portfolio of projects with development funded by Joint Venture Partners, reduces company risk and limits equity dilution.
  • Drilling can quickly re-rate the stock price with uranium junior exploration companies:
