The Hotish Property of Dios Exploration Inc. is a large mining property covering the western edge unconformity contact of the Otish Sedimentary Basin. The
Hotish Property of Dios is also direcly adjacent to the north to the Beaver Lake property where a historical data occurrence of 145,000 tonnes grading 0.11 % U3O8
is reported with chosen samples grading from 0.23 to 2.46 % U3O8.
The sharp increase in U3O8 prices as well as the world demand for uranium as an energy alternative certainly enhances the uranium potential of the Hotish property of DIOS.
Proven Kimberlitic Occurrences
Kimberlitic material was intersected in thirteen holes on the Hotish property. At least three (3) distinct kimberlitic occurrences were defined, with one found outcropping. Further ground geophysical surveys, prospecting, and till sampling (280 samples) work was carried out simultaneously during the course of the drilling campaign. Another hole elsewhere on the property intersected a fourth occurrence of a few cm kimberlite sill.
In 2004, Dios found a one-foot melnoite float some ten kilometers up-ice from previously identified kimberlitic sills; the source of the float has not yet been found.
Hotish Diamond and Uranium Facts:
Dios will pursue diamond exploration on specific targets as well as the evaluation of the uranium potential.
The Hotish Property is wholly-owned by Dios without any encumbrances.
A helicopter-borne drilling program is planned for summer 2008 to test 7 to 9 uranium targets with 12 to 20 holes
The latest till campaign yielded a number of quality KIMs that defined six new target areas.
