Zambia’s uranium exploration is gaining momentum with Atomic Eagle’s latest updates.

Atomic Eagle has announced significant findings from its Muntanga uranium project in Zambia. The company has identified a zone of uranium mineralisation measuring approximately 600 m by 200 m at Muntanga North, which remains open for further exploration.

Atomic Eagle Expands Muntanga Uranium Exploration

Atomic Eagle is actively advancing its exploration programme at the Muntanga uranium project. The current drilling efforts aim to support resource growth, particularly at Chisebuka and several early-stage targets at Muntanga North and Namakande. The exploration is part of a broader strategy to enhance the resource base.

Initial drilling at Namakande has revealed a broad zone of uranium mineralisation measuring 1,000 m by 400 m. This discovery highlights the potential for further significant findings as drilling and target evaluations continue.

Zambia: Key figures on uranium exploration

  • 600 m by 200 m zone of uranium mineralisation at Muntanga North
  • 1,000 m by 400 m zone of uranium mineralisation at Namakande
  • 30,000 m drilling programme

Future Steps for Muntanga North Targets

  • Follow-up drilling at Muntanga North Target 5 to test mineralised zone extensions
  • Ground radiometric surveying and first-pass drilling at targets 6, 7, and 8
  • Integration of drilling data with geological, radiometric, and geochemical datasets
  • Completion of current drilling at Muntanga North targets expected in Q4 of this year

Atomic Eagle’s exploration efforts are set to redefine Zambia’s uranium landscape.
