The Pukaskwa uranium exploration properties consists of 4 claim blocks; Denis Lake (23,360 acres), White River (23,360 acres), Esnagi Lake (33,600 acres), and McCrea Lake (19,520 acres). The claim areas staked were chosen based on the results of an Airborne Gamma Ray and in lake sediment survey that clearly identifies 4 strong anomalies.
The Company's claims cover a major structural flexure indicated by the magnetic signature. The area is underlain by late Archean intrusive rocks, and felsic volcanics and sedimentary rocks of probable Proterozoic age. The target could be a large-scale, intrusive associated, uranium mineralization potentially amenable to open pit mining. The Company proposes an extensive exploration program to prove out the geology and resource potential of the area.
Rubicon Minerals has granted to Consolidated Abaddon the exclusive right and option to acquire an undivided 100% interest in the Pukaskwa uranium properties for cash payments equivelant to Rubicon's cost of staking the properties (estimated to be approximately $200,000) plus 10%, and further cash payments in the amount of $165,000 and the issurance of 200,000 common shares of Consolidated Abaddon over the 4 year term of the Option Agreement. The agreement is subject to a 2% smelter return royalty (NSR) in favor of Rubicon. Consolidated Abaddon may purchase 50% of the NSR for $1,000,000.
Rubicon Minerals has retained a Back-In Right Agreement for the right to earn an undivided 20% interest in and to the Pukaskwa uranium properties within a period of 30 days following the first anniversary of the TSX Venture Exchange approval by agreeing to pay an amount equivalent to 300% of the amount of property expenditures incurred by the Company to that date.

The Wild claims consist of 23 mineral claims located within the Henry Mountain Syncline of East Central Utah. The Henry Mountain Syncline is an enclosed structural basin within the Colorado Plateau of southeastern Utah that is entirely underlain by the massive uranium bearing Salt Wash sandstone member of the Morrison formation. The hydraulic migration of oxygenated water containing liberated uranium tends to flow down-dip within the formation into the trapped, oxygen free static water creating a zone of major ore concentration known as a roll-front environment.
Utah Uranium Corp. is in the process of permitting a drill program for the Wild claims. Historically, there were a number of drill holes made on the Wild property by Continental Oil Company in 1969. As part of their activities, down-hole logging was performed on these holes, revealing radioactive mineralization in 11 holes. It is the intention of the Company to drill in the vicinity of those previous holes in order to properly assess the uranium/vanadium content.

Consolidated Abaddon holds interest in approx. 40,000 acres (160 square km) of highly prospective ground within the eastern flank of the Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan. Triex Minerals is actively exploring Abaddon's 49% owned Mann Lake property, which is located approx. 25 km to the SSW of the McArthur River Mine and 15 km to the NE of Cameco's Millennium (U3O8) discovery, and occurs at the northern extent of the B1 conductor.
The adjacent property to the Mann Lake property of significance is the Cree Extension joint venture hosting the Millennium deposit to the southwest. Cree Extension is a joint venture among Cameco Corporation, as operator, JCU (Canada) Exploration Co. Ltd., UEM Inc., and Cogema Resources Inc. In 2000, Cameco discovered the Millennium Uranium Zone on the Cree Extension using geophysical and geochemical techniques. The Millennium uranium deposit is located approximately 15 km southwest of the southern boundary of Consolidated Abaddon's Mann Lake property.
The other property of significance is the adjoining Mann Lake property to the east. In June 2006, Cameco Corporation, UEM Inc., and Int'L Enexco joint venture on the adjoining Mann Lake property, which is "beside" Consolidated Abaddon's Mann Lake project to the east, announced successful drill results. Two holes were drilled and targeted the western most conductor within a resistivity low. One hole intersected the unconformity at 517.8 metres and encountered four narrow intervals of basement-hosted uranium mineralization within 12 metres of the unconformity. The two highest-grade intervals averaged 7.12% U308 over 0.25 metre and 5.53% U308 over 0.4 metre. In November 2006, Int'L Enexco announced Cameco has tripled its budget for the 2007 exploration on their Mann Lake property.

Vancouver, BC - Consolidated Abaddon Resources Inc. (TSX-V: ABN) (FWB: E2L) announces that Utah Uranium Corp. (OTCBB: UTUC) has informed theCompany it has filed the requisite reclamation bond and is now in receipt of final permits required for drilling the Pinto uranium property in East Central Utah.
Having received the final permits, a drill crew and rig are currently being mobilized to the property, with drilling to commence early the week of November 12th. Utah Uranium Corp. Technical Advisory Board member and expert uranium geologist Mr. Christian (Ted) Murer is joining other consulting geologists on site to assist in the overseeing of drilling activities.
The first phase drilling program will entail drilling of up to 20 holes out of a permitted 50-hole drill program. Results of the first phase drilling will be announced as received.
The Pinto property consists of 344 mineral claims totalling approximately 7,000 acres located the Henry Mountain Syncline Basin of East Central Utah. The property is the subject of a Joint Venture agreement between Consolidated Abaddon and Utah Uranium Corp. Consolidated Abaddon has an option to earn up to a 60% interest in the property by making payments to Utah Uranium Corp. totaling $550,000 CDN, issuing a total of 550,000 shares to Utah Uranium Corp., and by fully funding a total of $605,000 CDN in exploration and drilling expenditures over the life of the agreement.
About the Pinto Uranium Property:
Utah Uranium Corp. acquired the Pinto claims from Christian (Ted) Murer P.Geo, the prospector geologist who conceptualized, discovered and currently holds a production royalty on the nearby Tony M Uranium Mine. Ted assembled the Pinto uranium claim package using the same data and methodology in the identical geologic setting as the Tony M and Bullfrog Uranium Mines on strike to the south, targeting the down dip accumulation of uranium and vanadium within the Salt Wash member of the Jurassic Morrison formation. The Morrison formation is approximately 250-300 ft. thick in this area. Drilling depth to the top of the Salt Wash will vary in depth from 50 to 150 ft. depending on dip and topography. The present plan is to define the north-south trend of uranium accumulations within the various sands of the Salt Wash based on known uranium deposits in the area and the applicable theories of mineral migration.
The potential of the Pinto claims, the first claim block to undergo drill permitting, is for high grade (for the area) uranium and vanadium deposits. Based on area extrapolations, the deposits could hold significant amounts of uranium and vanadium.
The Henry Mountain Syncline is an enclosed structural basin within the Colorado Plateau of southeastern Utah that is entirely underlain by the massive uranium bearing Salt Wash sandstone member of the Morrison formation. The hydraulic migration containing liberated uranium in solution within oxygenated waters flow down-dip within the formation into the trapped, oxygen free static waters within the basin, a reducing environment which precipitates out ore grade uranium resulting in a zone of major ore concentration, otherwise known as a roll-front environment.
The first discovery, known as the Tony M Mine, was made in the 80’s by Plateau Resources, a division of Michigan Light and Power and consists of 10,898,000 pounds of uranium.
