Agreement Provides for a Sustainable Future for CanAlaska and Communities Near its Projects in the Athabasca Basin

 

CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (TSXV: CVV) (OTCQX: CVVUF) (FSE: DH7) is pleased to announce it has signed an exploration agreement with English River First Nation (“ERFN”) to strengthen their relationship.

 

With extensive land holdings, roughly 500,000 hectares (1,235,000 acres) and uranium exploration targets in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin some of which are in the traditional lands of English River First Nation territories, CanAlaska is dedicated to building a sustainable future for its company and the communities near which it explores. By entering into this agreement, CanAlaska is demonstrating this commitment. Similarly, ERFN seeks to work collaboratively with exploration and mining companies operating within its Ancestral Territory. As such, this agreement is founded on ERFN’s commitment to ensuring the continued protection of their home while exercising their duty to ensure the ethical harvesting of resources throughout that home.

 

“Our Nation is pleased to solidify this relationship with CanAlaska. We look forward to a future of mutual respect and prosperity,” said Chief Alfred Dawatsare, English River First Nation.

 

“As a leading explorer and generator of world-class projects in the Athabasca Basin, we value the strength that working in partnership with the people of English River First Nation brings to our exploration activities in Saskatchewan. In turn, by signing this agreement and engaging in respectful and meaningful ways with English River First Nation, we are proud to be able to contribute to their stewardship of the land,” said Cory Belyk, CEO of CanAlaska.
