The Reno Creek Uranium Project is situated in the Powder River Basin in Campbell river County, Wyoming. The Reno Creek Project lies 20 miles south of AREVA's Christensen Ranch and 30 miles north of Cameco's Smith Ranch Project.
All the properties are accessible via paved or dirt roads. The necessary infrastructure is in place and considered to be excellent with a knowledgeable work force from the nearby oil/gas and coal industries.
The Reno Creek Project area has been extensively explored since the 1950's and small amounts of uranium were produced in the immediate area, mostly by shallow open-pits and adits. During the 1980's ISR testing occurred on the Reno Creek Property with positive results.
Testing of In-Situ recovery techniques has occurred in the area. Historical documents suggest better sandstone-host parameters (permeability, transitivity, lower calcite content) than those at the nearby Christensen Ranch In-Situ Recovery Project 20 miles to the northwest, operated and owned by Cogema (AREVA).
