NEWS RELEASE
Bayswater Discovers Five Uranium Targets for Drill Testing on Athabasca Basin Burdell Lake Property
Vancouver, BC, December 17, 2007 ─ Bayswater Uranium Corporation (TSX-V: BAY) (OTC: BYSWF) is pleased to report that five high priority basement conductive zones have been located at its Brudell Lake Property in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. The uranium exploration targets were identified by an airborne geophysical survey conducted over an area of the western Athabasca Basin that has never before been tested by systematic exploration.
A 14,000 line km, deep penetrating VTEM survey was flown earlier this year by Geotech Ltd. over Bayswater�s 100% owned 1.7 million acre Brudell Lake Property. Due to the large scale of the project, geophysical interpretation has only recently been completed, first by Condor Consulting Inc., specialists in processing this type of complex survey to identify and prioritize the conductors, and then by Paterson, Grant and Watson Ltd., who completed a structural interpretation of the magnetics in context with the conductive zones.
Five conductors, ranging in length from 3 km to over 7 km, occur in an area of the property which shows strong structural uplifts and downdrops associated with ENE-WSW to NE-SE regional basement faults. The conductors range in interpreted depth from 500 to 1,000 metres.
Due to the thick cover of Athabasca sandstone and absence of any drilling in the 1.7 million acre property, the basement geology of this area is unknown and interpretive. C. Card of the Saskatchewan Northern Geological Survey Branch recently presented a paper in Saskatoon (December 5, 2007) that suggests the area may be underlain in substantial part by metasediments. Metasediments in other areas of the Athabasca Basin host high-grade ore reserves such as at Cameco Corp�s (TSX: CCO) McArthur River mine and Cigar Lake deposit, as well as a number of other high-grade uranium deposits including Shea Creek, operated by AREVA Resources Canada Inc. and UEX Corp�s (TSX: UEX), and the Midwest Lake deposit owned by Denison Mines (TSX: DML) and AREVA, who recently announced plans to put the deposit into production.
In preparation for drill testing of the targets, it is the Company�s intent to conduct gravity and deep penetrating resistivity surveys, in conjunction with large loop electromagnetic surveys over the priority area during the first part of 2008, in order to more precisely define basement faults in coincidence with electromagnetic conductors. This relationship may be reflective of favourable graphitic conductors in association with major faults, fundamentally important parameters in regards to unconformity-type uranium deposit emplacement. The Company has applied for land use permits and has secured a geophysical contractor to conduct the work.
�We are excited about testing an area of the Athabasca Basin that so little is known about, yet demonstrates geophysical characteristics of most Athabasca deposits,� states Victor Tanaka, Chief Operating officer of Bayswater.
