Purepoint Uranium hits 73,100 CPS peak over 1.8 m at Nova Discovery
Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 14, 2026) - Purepoint Uranium Group Inc. (TSXV: PTU) (OTCQB: PTUUF) (" Purepoint ") reports that the nine holes of its winter 2026 drill program at the Nova Discovery have been successful in extending the uranium mineralization and favourable geology at the Dorado Joint Venture Project (" Dorado " or the " Project "), located in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin. Purepoint, as operator of the 50/50 joint venture with IsoEnergy Ltd. (NYSE American: ISOU | TSX: ISO), completed 5,210 metres of drilling within the Nova Zone. Downhole probe readings peaked at 73,100 counts per second (CPS), building on previously confirmed assay grades of up to 8.1% U₃O₈ at the Nova Discovery ( see September 18, 2025 NR ).
Regional drilling at Dorado is planned to resume in late June 2026. "When evaluating the scale potential of a new discovery, tracking radioactivity across a one kilometre trend anchored by confirmed grades of up to 8.1% U 3 O 8 is exactly what you want to see," said Chris Frostad, President and CEO. "We now have the geological framework and confidence to drill more aggressively when we return.
We are disciplined in how we've approach this target and the results are showing it. The mineralization remains open." Highlights The nine holes of the winter 2026 drill program expanded uranium mineralization at the Nova Discovery, extended the associated geologic contact for a strike length of one kilometre and established a refined targeting framework for continued expansion. Six holes intersected uranium mineralization as measured by a Mt. Sopris 2PGA-1000 downhole radiometric probe.
Standout intersections include: NV26-05:17,700 CPS average over 1.8 metres including 61,100 CPS average over 0.3 metres, and NV26-03A: 10,600 CPS average over 1.7 metres including 41,200 CPS average over 0.3 metres Program peak: 73,100 CPS. The Nova Discovery remains open along strike, at the unconformity and at depth Winter 2026 results build on
