VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Oct. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Senator Minerals Inc. (TSX-V:SNR) (OTC:SNRAF) (Frankfurt:T1KA) (“Senator” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that the Company has delivered 342 Radon Cups to Alpha-Track Uranium Exploration Services for Assay. A total of 158 sensors from the Carter Lake project and 184 from the PNE project were collected and forwarded for assay. Anomalous radon gas, which is a product of uranium decay, gives a direct correlation to the presence of subsurface uranium.
At both projects, sensors were deployed in arrays covering large extents of subsurface conductive anomalies, which had been identified through geophysical interpretations. The investigation of subsurface conductive zones that correlate strongly with structural breaks is the gold standard for uranium exploration in the Athabasca.
The Company will update its shareholders when it receives the assessment and detailed analysis from the laboratory.

The PNE Project covers approximately 531 hectares, directly adjoining the easternmost boundary of Fission 3.0's Patterson Lake North (PLN) project. The PNE Project was last explored in 2013 with an Alpha-Track radon cup survey, and in June, 2014, with a 5.7-line-kilometre DC resistivity survey, the latter performed by Patterson Geophysics. The Carter Lake Uranium Project lies near the eastern edge of the Clearwater Domain, approximately 21 kilometers northeast of the Patterson Lake property, held by Fission Uranium Corp.
