Skeleton Coast Uranium has filed three independent NI 43-101 technical reports covering its Exclusive Prospecting Licences (EPL) 8208, 9727, and 8617 in Namibia’s Erongo Region. The documents establish an exploration baseline for the project areas, which are prospective for both primary leucogranite-associated and secondary calcrete-hosted uranium mineralisation.

“These technical reports provide an exploration baseline for rapidly advancing Skeleton Coast Uranium's projects. We understand that successful exploration and expansion of the uranium resource base is critical if the mining industry is to meet the needs of a growing nuclear reactor fleet.”

— Dr. Nathan Chutas, Chief Executive Officer

The company has outlined a two-phase, decision-gated exploration programme for each licence with total estimated expenditures ranging from US$975,000 to US$1,575,000. Phase 1 is currently underway and focuses on the consolidation, digitisation, and validation of historical datasets to define and rank priority exploration targets. Completion of this data consolidation and the subsequent target validation phase remains pending.

The reports provide the geological framework required to determine whether identified radiometric or geochemical anomalies warrant future drill testing. Environmental Clearance Certificates are already in place for all three licences, enabling the planned exploration and drilling activities.
