White Canyon sells development material to major US uranium processor, Denison Mines
White Canyon Uranium Limited ASX announcement
20 October 2009
WHITE CANYON AGREES TO SELL DEVELOPMENT MATERIAL TO MAJOR US URANIUM
PROCESSOR DENISON MINES
US-focussed uranium company White Canyon Uranium Limited (ASX: WCU) has
reached agreement with major North American uranium producer and processor
Denison Mines Corp.
(TSX: DML, NYSE AMEX: DNN) to sell to Denison all
material produced during the development stage of White Canyons Daneros
uranium mine in South Eastern Utah through its Ore Buying Program.
The sale of the material generated from the development activities at
Daneros is key to White Canyon building a lasting relationship with Denison
as it is a requirement of Denison that companies sell the initial
production from development activities to their mill, so as to allow
Denison to derive critical processing parameters in regard to the Daneros
mineralisation and how best to treat it through their mill in the future.
At the conclusion of this initial agreement, it is expected Denison will
have all required information to enable the finalisation of a long-term
treatment agreement between Denison and White Canyon.
The development of twin declines at Daneros commenced in July 2009 and
while progress has been slower than anticipated, the main access decline
has progressed passed 700 (planned 900 -- 1000) and the mineralisation
may be reached at the end of this month.
The mineralisation will be mined
utilising room and pillar methods.
To achieve optimal production
flexibility in terms of production tonnage and grade access to the
mineralisation is required to be developed along the north south axis of
the mineralisation.
This planned development will also expose the known
edges of the drill defined mineralisation allowing underground exploration
to proceed.
