Geiger Energy Corp. has announced the resignation of James Sykes as a director of the company.

Sykes founded Baselode Energy Corp., the predecessor to Geiger, and played a central role in assembling the company's uranium portfolio and shaping its exploration approach across its Canadian projects.

“This is certainly the end of an era. James founded what was then known as Baselode, today Geiger, and helped build the foundation the Company stands on. He is a talented geologist, and on behalf of the board and everyone at Geiger, the team thanks him for all of his help and wish him the very best in his future endeavours”

— Stephen Stewart, Chairman of Geiger Energy

Following the board change, Geiger maintains extensive regional landholdings, controlling approximately 338,000 hectares in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin and 95,519 hectares in Nunavut's Thelon Basin.

The company is actively advancing its exploration portfolio across these districts. Geiger is currently progressing its 2026 drill programs at the flagship Aberdeen Project in the Thelon Basin—which hosts the high-grade Tatiggaq and Qavvik discoveries alongside more than 50 high-priority targets—and at the Hook Project in the Athabasca Basin, which hosts the ACKIO uranium discovery.
