Traction Uranium Provides Fall Program Updates for Key Lake South and Hearty Bay Properties

(Calgary, AB): Traction Uranium Corp. (CSE: TRAC) (OTC: TRCTF) (FRA: Z1K) (the “Company” or “Traction”) is pleased to provide the following program updates on exploration programs currently underway at both Key Lake South (KLS) and Hearty Bay.

Lester Esteban, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I am truly impressed by the hard work and determination our teams put in day in and day out in developing and rolling out field programs for both Hearty Bay and our newest project KLS. Next year, Traction will be embarking on our biggest drill program to date and our team is dedicated to maximizing every dollar put into the ground for our investors by executing high quality follow up programs to develop high quality drill targets. We are pleased to provide the following updates on our Fall Programs and invite everyone to follow our progress as we advance towards our drill programs in 2023.”

Key Lake South Uranium Project Advances to Phase 2:

As the initial Phase 1 Ground Program involving boulder prospecting, mapping and sampling with Traction’s research team is nearing completion (see Traction September 13th, 2022 News Release) Phase 2 of the program involving a Ground Gravity Program will commence.

MWH Geo-Surveys has been contracted to complete the program with mobilization planned next week of their Gravity Meter/GPS Operators to the KLS field. The Gravity Survey data will provide a terrain corrected complete Bouguer Contour Map that will be used to generate high priority drill targets for the upcoming diamond drill program for the KLS (Key Lake South) Project. The program is expected to take approximately 2 weeks.

Hearty Bay Fall Program Initiates with LiDAR Survey

The Hearty Bay follow up program begins with execution of a LiDAR survey to generate a detailed digital elevation model that will assist a surficial geologist to define all of the different surficial materials in the area and the mechanisms for the uraniferous boulders to be deposited where they had been discovered on Isle Brochet.

LiDAR or Light Detection and Ranging surveying captures 3D data using laser pulses to calculate distances and measure ranges. It’s essentially a remote light sensing method that uses rapid light pulses to map out the surface of the earth.

The big picture generated with a LiDAR survey will greatly assist in unraveling the glacial history, to characterize the surficial materials and processes that have led to the surficial landforms that are present today allowing a surficial geologist to develop follow up work on Isle Brochet that could more fully delineate the extent of the mineralized boulders on the island and assist our team in vectoring in on the source of the high grade uranium boulders discovered on Isle Brochet.

About Traction Uranium Corp.

Traction Uranium Corp. is in the business of mineral exploration and the development of discovery prospects in Canada, including its three flagship uranium projects in the world renowned Athabasca Region.

About the Properties

The Key Lake South Uranium Project is located approximately 6 kilometers to the southwest of the Key Lake uranium mill and in close vicinity to modern uranium mining facilities and highway transportation in northern Saskatchewan. Geologically, it sits at the southeastern edge of the Proterozoic Athabasca Basin – home of the world’s largest and highest grade uranium deposits and operations. Recent discovery of Triple R and Arrow deposits has demonstrated further potential of high-grade uranium at the edge of the basin.

The Hearty Bay Project is located in the northwest side of the Athabasca Basin in the Beaverlodge/Uranium City district, Hearty Bay hosts a uranium boulder-field where it is interpreted that glaciation has transported the high-grade uranium boulders from a nearby source. Interpretation of a 2019 marine seismic survey defined interpreted fault intersections that represent drill targets which may be associated with the source of the uranium boulder trains.
