Sassy Resources Corporation announced that it has received drill permits for the Highrock Uranium Project through project operator Forum Energy Metals. Sassy intends to execute an approximate 3,000-meter diamond drill program consisting of 10-12 holes. Mobilization for access to the drill sites by a winter haul road has commenced with drilling anticipated in February.

Sassy and Forum will provide a thorough overview of the project plans once the drills are turning. The property is located just south of the Key Lake mine and mill site. The Key Lake mine generated historic production of greater than 200 million pounds of uranium during its mine life.

The Key Lake site continues to host a uranium processing facility operated by Cameco.
