VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Foremost Clean Energy Ltd<\/strong>.<\/em> (NASDAQ: FMST<\/strong>) (CSE: FAT<\/strong>) (“Foremost<\/strong><\/a>” or the “Company<\/strong>“), is pleased to announce a ground-based gravity survey will commence in December over its Hatchet Lake Uranium Property (“Hatchet<\/strong>“), located in the eastern Athabasca Basin region ( the \u201cBasin<\/strong>\u201d) of northern Saskatchewan (see figure 1). The gravity survey is focused on the southern extent of the Richardson Trend where there has been limited drilling (see figure 2). The survey will be conducted by MWH Geo Survey (\u201cMWH<\/strong>\u201d), a leading geophysical contractor with more than 40 years of experience throughout the Basin.<\/p>\n

Foremost\u2019s President and CEO Jason Barnard commented: \u201cThe Hatchet Lake gravity survey marks an important step in refining our geological model along the Richardson Trend. By integrating gravity, electromagnetic, magnetic and geochemical data, we are building a more complete picture of the subsurface architecture that controls uranium mineralization in this area. The results are expected to directly influence our winter 2026 drill program, ensuring that our next round of drilling is focused, data-driven, and aligned with the most prospective structural targets.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n Gravity Survey Details<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

The program is anticipated to comprise approximately 788 gravity stations collected at 100-metre station intervals on 200-metre line spacing across priority structural corridors on the southeast extension of the Richardson trend extending beyond the Athabasca Basin margin (see figure 2). These measurements will assist in refining subsurface interpretations, mapping density contrasts, and identifying potential zones of hydrothermal alteration associated with uranium-bearing structures.<\/p>\n

\n Richardson Trend<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

The Hatchet Lake Project covers a significant portion of the Richardson Trend, a well-established basement structural corridor known to host uranium mineralization both on the property and along strike. Importantly, the southeast extension of the Richardson Trend contains more than 6 km of under-tested conductor strike length. The trend hosts brittle-ductile sheared, graphitic basement conductors, which when reactivated, serve as enhanced hydrothermal fluid pathways that create favourable conditions for the development of basement-hosted and unconformity-related uranium deposits. The structural setting is analogous to other major uranium systems along the eastern Basin margin, such as the La Rocque Corridor which is host to ISO Energy\u2019s Hurricane Deposit, and Cameco\u2019s La Rocque Lake Uranium Zone.<\/p>\n

Historic drilling along the Richardson Trend conducted by Denison Mines Corp. (\u201cDenison<\/strong>\u201d, NYSE American: DNN, TSX: DML) returned multiple uranium-bearing intervals and strong alteration consistent with a fertile mineralizing system. Significant past results include:<\/p>\n
