Uranium 308 Corp. has announced
it will begin advanced drilling as part of its 2008 exploration program
at the Janchivlan uranium site, located 70 km southeast of Ulaanbaatar.
The exploration team is planning
to drill at six sites within the 196.38 sq. km Janchivlan property.
Goals for the exploration season include geological mapping, radiometric
surveying, trenching, and sampling, with follow-up diamond core drilling
of 25,000m. Yunnan Nuclear Industry Brigade 209 of China has been hired
to be the program's general contractor.
As part of its current activities,
Uranium 308 Corp. is training Mongolian geologists in handling, cutting,
sampling, shipping, and ensuring the security of core samples from Janchivlan.
A Canadian firm, Activation
Laboratories, will prepare and process core samples at its facilities
in Ulaanbaatar. Activation will conduct final analysis of samples in
its labs in Ontario, Canada.
