Background & Approach Company formed in 2016 – 5 Eastern Athabasca properties spun out of NexGen Energy Clear strategy at a difficult time in the uranium market – presented an opportunity for the company Built a portfolio of 24 High Quality Properties 3 IsoEnergy.ca TSXV: ISO OTCQX: ISENF
Eastern Athabasca Portfolio Original Strategy Stake/acquire as much prospective ground in the eastern Athabasca as possible Drill around mineralized intercepts not adequately followed up post 2011 24 High Quality Properties, including: Larocque East is home to the Hurricane Zone high-grade uranium discovery Geiger covers numerous intersections of weak uranium and uranium pathfinder mineralization, many walk-up drill targets, and thin sandstone cover Collins Bay Extension acquisition located along-trend of, and within 7km of, the Rabbit Lake uranium mine and mill complex Thorburn Lake 7km east of the Cigar Lake Mine. Several drill holes have hit uranium mineralization. Numerous target areas remain Radio located 2km east along strike of the Roughrider deposit, which Rio Tinto acquired for $587M in February 2012 4 IsoEnergy.ca TSXV: ISO OTCQX: ISENF
