Vancouver, British Columbia–(December 13, 2023) – Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FSE:SSKU) (“Cosa” or the “Company“) is pleased to announce the completion of the previously announced acquisition (the “Acquisition“) of the Aurora Project in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan (“Aurora” or the “Property“) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement dated December 1, 2023 (the “Purchase Agreement“).
Highlights
- Over 16,800 hectares added to Cosa’s 100% owned exploration portfolio with no encumbrances.
- Aurora covers 17 kilometres of the southeastern rim of the Athabasca Basin between Key Lake and the GMZ uranium discovery.
- Historical drilling logs report several, metre scale zones of intense hydrothermal alteration were intersected in multiple areas on the Property.
Keith Bodnarchuk, President and CEO, commented: “We are excited to have completed this acquisition in a timely manner and added Aurora to our pipeline of underexplored uranium projects ahead of the 2024 exploration season. The amount of structure and alteration noted in historical drill logs has us eager to advance the Property with an initial program of geophysical surveying to help define targets ahead of a drill campaign. The proximity to the Key Lake Mill and lack of modern exploration makes Aurora a very compelling project as we continue our exploration efforts through 2024, and we look forward to updating the market on our progress.”
About Aurora
The Property comprises seven contiguous claims totaling 16,896 hectares which cover 17 kilometres of the Athabasca Basin’s southeastern rim (Figure 1). The Property is located 16 kilometres east of the Key Lake Mill and former Key Lake Mine (Figure 2). Between 1983 and 2002 the Key Lake Mine produced 209.8 million pounds of U3O8 at an average grade of 2.3% U3O8. The Key Lake Mill is one of three licensed uranium mills in Saskatchewan and currently processes ore from the McArthur River Mine. Aurora is 40 kilometres southwest of the recently discovered GMZ uranium zone. Access and infrastructure at Aurora are excellent as an existing network of winter roads and the Provincial powerline supplying Key Lake and McArthur River extend through the western portion of the Property.
Aurora covers a prominent, complex zone of low magnetic susceptibility. The northeast trending magnetic low zone’s northern edge is generally coincident with the current edge of the Athabasca Basin (Figure 2). In the portion of the Property within the Athabasca Basin the thickness of sandstone is expected be less than 100 metres, while less than 150 metres of basement is interpreted to have been eroded from the portion without sandstone. East-northeast trending magnetic lineaments parallel to the Key Lake trend are evident within the Property.
Aurora has not received modern, property-wide gravity or electromagnetic geophysical survey coverage like other projects along the Basin margin. Though no diamond drilling has been completed on the Property since 1979, ongoing review of historical drill hole logs has identified several zones of hydrothermal alteration. Drill hole 307-79-26, completed in the northeastern portion of the project, intersected several, metre-scale intervals of faulted and variably chloritized, hematitized, and argillized gneiss between roughly 27 and 68 metres hole depth. Approximately four kilometres to the west, drill hole R-024 intersected anomalous radioactivity measuring approximately 20 times background levels at the brecciated unconformity contact which is underlain by nearly 30 metres of highly altered and steeply dipping paragneiss.
Given the encouraging amount of structure and hydrothermal alteration noted by historical operators, Cosa plans to complete comprehensive electromagnetic and gravity surveying at Aurora, in conjunction with similar surveys planned for the Company’s Orbit Project in Q2/Q3 2024. Upon completion of historical review and geological modelling, Cosa’s technical team will also complete a historical core review to aid in prioritization of follow up drill targets where warranted.
Acquisition Details
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Cosa acquired a 100% unencumbered ownership of all seven mineral claims comprising Aurora from an arm’s length third party vendor (the “Vendor“) in exchange for $20,000 in cash and the issuance of 150,000 common shares of the Company (the “Consideration Shares“). The Consideration Shares are subject to a four-month hold period pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws. In addition, the Vendor agreed to voluntary resale restrictions whereby 50% of the Consideration Shares will become free trading six months after closing of the Acquisition.

The Company’s disclosure of technical or scientific information in this press release has been reviewed and approved by Andy Carmichael, P.Geo., Vice President, Exploration for Cosa. Mr. Carmichael is a Qualified Person as defined under the terms of National Instrument 43-101.
Technical Disclosure
This news release refers to neighboring properties in which the Company has no interest. Mineralization on those neighboring properties does not necessarily indicate mineralization on the Company’s properties. The reader is cautioned that historical drill results from Aurora are based on data and reports prepared by previous property owners. The reader is cautioned not to treat them, or any part of them, as current and that a qualified person has not done sufficient work to verify the results and that they may not form a reliable guide to future results. Reported radioactivity has not been confirmed to be caused by uranium and the model of instrument used to measure radioactivity is unknown. The Company considers these historical results relevant as it is using this data as a guide to plan exploration programs. No independent QA/QC protocols are known for these samples and as such analytical results may be unreliable.
