Skyharbour’s JV readies for 2026 exploration

Skyharbour Resources’ (TSX-V:SYH) joint venture partner, Orano Canada, will begin up to 3,500m of drilling across 10 holes at the Preston Uranium Project in Saskatchewan next year.

The 2026 exploration campaign intends to advance target areas at the project, focusing on the FSAN and Canoe Lake grids.

Exploration will include an airborne gravity gradiometry survey, which will cover the corridor in the northern area of the property. Surveys will be conducted using spacing either of 25m by 25m or 50m by 50m. 

Orano holds a 74.7% stake in Preston, while Skyharbour holds the remaining 25.3% stake. 

Skyharbour entered the joint venture in 2017 through an option agreement, fulfilling its interest in early 2021. 

Skyharbour Resources holds an extensive portfolio of uranium exploration projects in Canada’s Athabasca Basin
