Purepoint Uranium Group (TSXV:PTU) is a uranium exploration company laser-focused on making a transformative high-grade discovery in the world-class Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan, Canada. With an extensive portfolio of drill-ready projects, strategic partnerships with industry leaders Cameco and Orano, Purepoint offers speculative investors compelling exposure to the potential for a re-rating uranium discovery against an increasingly bullish uranium market backdrop.

The Athabasca Basin is widely regarded as the world's premier uranium jurisdiction, hosting the highest grade deposits on the planet with an average resource grade of 2% U3O8 (compared to a global average of 0.2% U3O8). The region has been the site of multiple major discoveries over the past two decades, including Cameco's McArthur River, NextGen Energy's Arrow, and IsoEnergy's Hurricane zone. These deposits are not only high-grade but also relatively shallow and amenable to conventional mining methods.

Purepoint has spent the past decade assembling a dominant land position in the Athabasca Basin and advancing its projects up the exploration pipeline. The company's flagship projects are held in joint ventures with uranium giants Cameco and Orano, including Hook Lake (adjacent to Fission's Triple R deposit) and Smart Lake (adjacent to Cameco's McArthur River mine). These JV partnerships provide Purepoint with financial and technical support while validating the prospectivity of the company's ground.

Purepoint is also advancing a pipeline of 100%-owned projects, including Red Willow, Henday Lake, and Umpherville Project. The most advanced is the 100%-owned Turnor Lake project, which is located adjacent to IsoEnergy's Hurricane zone discovery. Past drilling at Hurricane has returned some of the best uranium intersections globally, including 38.8% U3O8 over 7.5 meters. Purepoint is currently conducting a 3,000 meter drill program at Turner Lake to follow up on high-priority geophysical targets along the same structural corridor that hosts Hurricane.

The company takes a systematic, data-driven approach to exploration that leverages modern geophysical and geochemical techniques to identify drill targets with the highest probability of success. This approach has already yielded success, with previous drill programs intersecting high-grade uranium mineralization at Hook Lake and Smart Lake. With over $35 million invested in exploration across its projects to date and an estimated $8 million in working capital, Purepoint is well funded to continue aggressively exploring its Athabasca Basin portfolio.

The company is led by a highly experienced management team and board with a track record of exploration success in the Athabasca Basin. President & CEO Chris Frostad has with over 35 years of experience in the mining industry, including senior roles with major mining and technology companies. With the uranium market in the early stages of a major bull market driven by growing demand for carbon-free nuclear energy and a structural supply deficit, Purepoint is well positioned to capitalize on rising uranium prices and the renewed investor interest in uranium equities. As the company continues to advance its portfolio of high-grade uranium projects in the world-class Athabasca Basin, Purepoint offers compelling high-risk, high-reward exposure to the next world-class uranium discovery.
