Patterson Corridor East (PCE)
The uranium occurrence is situated only 3.5 km east of the world-class Tier 1 Arrow Deposit and shares several geological characteristics very analogous to Arrow. Initial results at PCE have indicated an expansive footprint with remarkable continuity of mineralization. Further, the observations of the drill core indicate a large, pervasive hydrothermal system.
The system is open in most directions, with mineralization spanning over 620 m in strike length and 700 m vertical extent. As of the end of the 2025 exploration program, 67 of the 102 drillholes are mineralized, including 45 intersecting high-grade (>10,000 cps) and 17 intersecting off-scale (>61,000 cps)
Notable drillholes at PCE to date:
- RK-25-232 marks NexGen’s best discovery-phase assay intercept, with 15.0 m at 15.9% U3O8, including a peak intercept of 0.5 m at 68.8% U3O8.
- RK-25-207 intersected 9.5 m at 2.91% U3O8, including a peak intercept of 0.5 m at 28.2% U3O8.
