About CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. -- www.canalaska.com
CanAlaska Uranium (CVV -- TSX.V, CVVUF -- OTCBB, DH7 --
Frankfurt) is undertaking uranium exploration in seventeen
100%-owned and two optioned uranium projects in Canada's
Athabasca Basin. Since September, 2004, the Company has
aggressively acquired one of the largest land positions in
the region, comprising over 2,500,000 acres (10,117 sq. km
or 3,906 sq. miles). In 2005/2006, CanAlaska expended over
Cdn$15 million exploring its properties in the Athabasca
Basin and has delineated multiple uranium targets. Initial
drilling results from the West McArthur Project revealed
uranium mineralization and significant zones of hydrothermal
alteration, indicative of a favourable environment for
uranium deposition. Active drilling and exploration
continues in the Summer, 2007 exploration season at West
McArthur and at 4 other significant projects. The Company's
high profile in the prominent Athabasca Basin has attracted
the attention of major international strategic partners.
Mitsubishi Development Pty., a subsidiary of Japanese
conglomerate Mitsubishi Corporation, has undertaken to
provide CanAlaska C$11 mil. in exploration funding to earn
50% of the West McArthur Project. An MOU has also been
executed with Hanwha Corporation, a S. Korean conglomerate,
to enter into a C$19 mil. exploration joint venture with
CanAlaska on its Cree East Project.
