Lorado Project

The 245 ha Lorado Project is located 10km SW of Uranium City in northern Saskatchewan. Uranium City is located on the north shore of Lake Athabasca, 536km NNW of LaRonge and is accessible via scheduled flights from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and charter aircraft from Fort McMurray, Alberta. All season road access is available to Stoney Rapids then a 175km seasonal ice road to Uranium City via Fon-du-Lac. Uranium City is endowed with services such as hospital, lodging accommodations, groceries, fuel and airport.

The Lorado claims were acquired in 2023 and have no underlying royalties or encumbrances. They are road accessible from Uranium City by Hwy 962 and bisected by a power transmission line. The property is host to two areas of past production of uranium ore, the Lorado and Pitchie zones. A detailed compilation and interpretation of available data from historical work programs has begun and will lead to recommendations for future work and more information for this webpage.

Project Highlights

  • Host to the past producing Lorado Uranium Mine
  • Lorado Uranium Mine saw extensive underground development and production from 1953-1960
  • Between 1957 – 1960, a shaft with 4 levels produced 95,000 tons grading 0.19% U308
  • Structurally controlled uranium mineralization associated with graphite and pyrite
