Tribune Follows the Yellow Brick Road as it Drills for Uranium in the Athabasca
No, we’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto, but we are at the scene of a whirlwind of activity along the southern margin of the Athabasca Basin, where Tribune Uranium Corp (TSX.V:TCB) has just begun drilling for uranium at its Botham Lake property. The company is working right next door to Cameco’s recent Centennial Zone discovery, which reports 18.3% U3O8 over 5.3 meters. The property is just south of Tommy Davis Bay (Cree Lake), approximately 254 km north-northwest of La Ronge and 53 km west of the Key Lake Uranium Mine.
The company has five projects altogether– three of which are strategically located within the Athabasca Basin: Botham Lake (19,099 ha), Dufferin Lake East (18,790 ha), and North Shore (117,853 ha). Rounding out a well-diversified portfolio are its recently-acquired Quartz and Green claims, in the Reed Lake Mining District of Manitoba, and its Potonico gold/silver project in El Salvador.
So far, nine anomalies at Botham Lake have been identified from the results of an 826 line-km MEGATEM airborne survey conducted in 2006. The work program for the summer and fall of this year involved additional ground prospecting and analysis to identify potential drill targets. So far, 20 high-priority drill targets have been identified on the anomalies. Plans are for a total of 4000m of drilling over four of the nine anomalies (B1, B2, B4, and B9). The company is following the recommendations laid out in its 43-101 report, which states that “additional work is recommended for the Properties, but the work should be focused on drill testing the areas containing the four strongest conductor anomalies, B1, B2, B4, and B9, detected during the airborne GEOTEM survey and the anomalies detected during the ground magnetics and HLEM surveys on the Botham Lake claim block. Secondary (and tertiary, on B1) conductive trends were identified using ground magnetics and HLEM surveys along grids B1, B45, and B79, which were not apparent from the airborne geophysics surveys. Eight to nine diamond drill holes to depths of 600 meters would be recommended to drill test the identified conductor anomalies.”
Saskatchewan is the world leader in uranium production– home to the biggest uranium mines in the world, with resources sufficient for over 40 years at current rates of production. There are three uranium mines currently in production in the Athabasca– Eagle Point, McArthur River and McClean Lake. In 2005, these mines produced 28% of the world’s uranium. As of December 31st 2006, the province’s uranium reserves stood at 673.6 million lbs. of U3O8, with new deposits being continually discovered– with an energy potential estimated at 5.7 billion tonnes of coal or 20 billion barrels of oil.
According to the most recent Uranium in Saskatchewan, a fact sheet produced annually by Saskatchewan’s uranium mining industry, “uranium production from the high grade deposits of the Athabasca Basin began in 1975 at Rabbit Lake. The richest uranium deposits in the world occur at or near the base of the Athabasca Basin sandstone sequence, near the erosional unconformity with the underlying crystalline rocks”. Today, all of Canada’s uranium production is from basement- and unconformity-related deposits such as Key Lake, Cluff Lake, Rabbit Lake (all now depleted), and the McClean Lake and McArthur River deposits. Other large, exceptionally high-grade, unconformity-related deposits currently being developed include Cameco’s Cigar Lake (averaging almost 20% U3O8 with some zones running over 50% U3O8). Interestingly enough, due to flooding, production has been delayed at Cigar Lake until 2010– with some analysts suggesting that this setback is an important factor in keeping uranium prices high.
This decade has seen the price of uranium skyrocket from around $15/lb. at the beginning of 2001 to a high of $135/lb. in July of this year before settling back to its current plateau of around $90/lb. This phenomenal rise is a reflection of mounting concerns about pending supply shortages. Already, eighteen nuclear power plants provide about 15% of Canada’s electricity. By 2030, world electricity demand is expected to double– making nuclear an increasingly attractive option to help meet the growing demand for clean, affordable power.
Tribune stands a particularly good chance of achieving success in the Athabasca for several reasons. Management has built a solid property portfolio in the area– with key claims right next door or close to Cameco’s proven deposits. It has successfully negotiated agreements with joint venture partners who are experienced in the Athabasca; namely, Fission Energy on its North Shore property. Mining-friendly governments, a much wider public acceptance of nuclear power than in previous years, and voracious global uranium demand do much to pave the company’s way to production.
The next few weeks will be exciting ones for the company’s investors, and some positive assay results should have them saying– in a twist on the old classic– lions and tigers and bulls– oh my!

High Grade Yellow Question
What should i wear to grade 8 grad?
I know, I don’t have it until next year, but all the girls are already planning for it, and asking what kind of dress I’m getting. I know I don’t like dresses, or even skirts, but our school is very formal. I like dark colours, or at least not neon colours or pink orange or yellow. I want it at least to my knees, and it can be lower, but any higher will not do because I hate, absolutely hate wearing anything shorter than that.
try jcpenny. they have some good ones. look at this page. alot of them are really cute. i really like the first one. the brown halter with the o-ring:

airsoft bbs? whats the difference?
mmk so i bought two 2000 bbs pack for my airsoft sniper rifle…one pack is yellow,the other is white…the white says “high grade bb bullet
super accurate 6-mm bullets” and the yell just says “electricity capor gun apporopriantion 6mm bb bullets” so does that mean my white bbs are more accurate then my yellows?
Definitely not all bbs are the same.
You want to look at the weight of each BB. .12 gram bbs are less accurate than .20 gram bbs. The heavier the bb, the more accurate it will be. Also, if it says “High Polished” it means of course the bbs are polished, but also they are more accurate.
I recommend ordering all bbs online for any expensive or high quality gun. BBs bought at Walmart and Dicks Sporting Goods typically aren’t good for your gun. They can shatter in your gun and tear up the insides.
I also recommend for a sniper using some heavier bbs. .23-.25 or heavier to get your maximum range. Just experiment around with the weights and you’ll find what weight is best for your gun.
