About McKenzie Lake

McKenzie Lake is located outside of the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin within the central parts of the Wollaston Domain basement rocks, which host prolific uranium mines such as Key Lake, McArthur River, Cigar Lake and Rabbit Lake, amongst others. Two recent discoveries of note have been made in the McKenzie Lake-Javelin area, immediately to the southwest of the McKenzie Lake claims. The first is a discovery by 92 Energy Ltd. at their Gemini Project, where strongly anomalous basement-hosted uranium mineralization was intersected in drill hole GEM-004. More recently, and in close proximity to the discovery of 92 Energy Ltd., Baseload Energy Corp. reported the intersection of a broad zone of anomalous radioactivity in their 2021 drill hole HK21-07.

ALX has staked several other claims in the McKenzie Lake-Javelin area, which will be announced once mineral tenure is formally granted by the Government of Saskatchewan.

Details of the Transaction

ALX has agreed to pay a vendor group (the "Vendors") $7,500 cash and 250,000 common shares of ALX for a 100% interest in four of the McKenzie Lake claims (the "Purchased Claims") totaling 2,458.6 hectares. ALX staked a fifth claim totaling 4,457.6 hectares, which brings the total Project area to 6,916 hectares (17,089 acres). The Vendor will retain a 2.0% net smelter returns royalty, 1.0% of which can be purchased by ALX at any time for $1.0 million. The acquisition of the Purchased Claims is subject to acceptance by the TSX Venture Exchange.
