Aventis Energy Opens Winter Drilling at Corvo Uranium Project After Four-Decade Hiatus

The fully funded program comprises eight to ten holes, planned to total between 2,500 and 3,000 meters, with an anticipated duration of five to six weeks. Field crews reached the project site on February 6, enabling a prompt, on-schedule start.

Key details at a glance:
- Initiation after more than 40 years without drilling
- Entirely funded exploration program
- Primary focus on the Manhattan target area
- Search for high-grade uranium within bedrock

Geophysical data underpin the objective

Target selection draws on geophysical work conducted in 2025. Recent prospecting efforts have confirmed strong surface radioactivity within the identified zones. Aventis is prioritizing the Manhattan target area first, among several high-priority targets on the property.

The target delineation was performed in collaboration with Convolutions Geoscience Corporation. The approach integrated electromagnetic surveys, gravity data, and geological mapping. The aim is to locate flat-lying, high-grade uranium mineralization in the bedrock.

Athabasca Basin focus in a renowned uranium district

The Corvo project sits in the Wollaston Lake region, a zone well known for its high-grade uranium occurrences. The Athabasca Basin is widely regarded as one of the world's leading uranium districts, and Aventis is positioning its program to leverage this geologic context.

The upcoming drill program is designed to test whether the geophysical anomalies and surface indicators align with economically viable uranium mineralization. Initial results are expected in the coming weeks.
