An announcement from Aurora Energy Metals Limited ( (AU:1AE) ) is now available.

Aurora Energy Metals has highlighted progress at the Aurora Uranium Project in the U.S. after Eagle Nuclear Energy began comprehensive environmental baseline studies ahead of a 27,000 ft drill program and Pre-Feasibility Study. The work, covering hydrology, water quality, ecology, geochemistry, meteorology and cultural heritage, is aimed at underpinning future permitting, mine design and development pathways for what Eagle describes as the country’s largest conventional measured and indicated uranium deposit.

Aurora’s exposure to the project is maintained through its significant Eagle shareholding, currently valued at about A$25 million or roughly A$0.14 per Aurora share, alongside rights to up to US$10 million in milestone payments and a 1% net smelter royalty on future uranium output. Recent on-market purchases of Aurora shares by directors and management underscore internal confidence in the company’s strategic positioning and its leveraged interest in the advancing U.S. uranium asset.
