Vancouver, British Columbia - July 10, 2018 (Newsfile Corp.) (Investorideas.com Newswire) CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: CVV) (OTCQB: CVVUF) (FSE: DH7N) ("CanAlaska" or the "Company") is pleased to announce being able to model historical drill data and define a 400 metre long high-grade nickel target within a 1,200 metre long horizon of semi-continuous nickel mineralization, north of the former producing Manibridge nickel mine, in the Thompson Nickel Belt, Manitoba.

The Manibridge project is located in an area of generally high nickel tenor mineralization, outlined by discovery drill holes and recent airborne geophysical surveys, as well as a number of untested targets.

Additional airborne survey work is currently being tendered by the Company, with the aim to have several drill targets ready by fall 2018.

Historical drilling in the mineral zone reported significant nickel values over mineable widths, as shown in figure 2. Many of the assays have a very high nickel tenor ([Ni]100 >20), indicating possible remobilization and enrichment, a significant benefit in processing.

The Thompson Nickel Belt is a 350 kilometre long mineral belt of nickel deposits located in northern Manitoba. The Manibridge nickel deposit was mined from 1971 to 1977. Original resources were 1.5 million tons at 2.25% nickel and 0.27% copper. Although cobalt was not reported, cobalt mineralization exists in other deposits in the Thompson Nickel Belt. The Belt's extensive nickel mineralization, associated with mafic-ultramafic rocks, makes the region a major exploration frontier for discovery of new sulphide nickel-cobalt deposits.

CanAlaska president Peter Dasler comments, "CanAlaska now has three large projects in the Thompson Nickel Belt. The Manibridge target shows a significant concentration of high grade nickel within a broad fold structure that appears to extend to depth. Our compilation work shows additional structural targets associated with high geophysical response from the historical VTEM and GEOTEM surveys. We will be gathering additional data on these targets with a planned airborne survey, with the expectation of outlining additional drill targets."
