Baselode Energy Corp. announce diamond drilling has started on the ACKIO ("ACKIO") uranium prospect within the Hook project ("Hook") in the Athabasca Basin area of northern Saskatchewan. Up to 12,000 metres of drilling is planned at ACKIO, subject to drill results, targeting i. the southeast zone, where geophysical survey results suggest the alteration and structural system trend east/southeast-west/northwest, ii.

unconformity-style mineralization along the Athabasca sandstone structural contact to the southeast, and; iii. the depth of mineralized structures based on geochemical trends and alteration pathways. The regional Hook exploration drill program is planned for up to 4,000 metres with 15 to 20 drill holes targeting 5 to 7 different areas.

The target areas were generated from combinations of recent results from ground gravity and ANT geophysical surveys (Figure 3). The program is scheduled to start near the end of June. Once the drill has completed Hook exploration drilling, it will join the ACKIO program to complete drilling there.
