Uranium exploration and development company Snow Lake Resources will start its  Phase 2 drill program at the Engo Valley Uranium project in Namibia in mid-March, 2025. The program will involve 7,500 meters of reverse circulation and diamond drilling across the Main Uranium Occurrence and D1 prospects.

The drilling results will support the development of a maiden mineral resource estimate – expected in the second half of 2025. The Phase 1 exploration campaign in 2024 confirmed uranium mineralization at the two prospects.

Frank Wheatley, CEO of Snow Lake, said the firm seeks to demonstrate Engo Valley’s capacity to help meet the rising global demand for uranium, driven by increasing energy needs from data centers and AI technologies.
