10:44 AM EST - NexGen Energy Ltd. : Announced further results from its recently completed spring drilling program on our 100% owned Rook I Property, Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Eight drill holes have intersected extensive mineralization, and off-scale radioactivity (>10,000 to >61,000 cps) has been intersected in each of the A1, A2, A3 and A4 shears. The new high-grade zone within the A1 shear was initially discovered with drill hole AR-16-84c1 (8.35 m of off-scale radioactivity with assays pending), and has been significantly expanded towards the northeast with drill holes AR-16-91c3 and -91c4. Holes -91c3 and -91c4 were drilled 30 m up-dip and northeast and 25 m down-dip and northeast, respectively from hole -84c1. The A1 shear currently has a mineralized strike length of 360 m and remains largely untested. NexGen Energy Ltd.
