VANCOUVER, May 9 /CNW/ - CanAlaska Uranium Ltd. (CVV-TSX.V) (the "Company") is pleased to announce that its winter drill programs at Cree Lake and Lake Athabasca and Key Lake Projects have now concluded. All samples for assay and trace element geochemistry are now at the laboratories and we awaiting analyses. The geochemical signatures of the intense alteration zones seen in drill cores at both the Cree Lake and Lake Athabasca projects are expected to detail the halo effect of uranium mineralization, as both programs found (small) localized zones of elevated uranium counts associated with hematite oxidation and zones of hydrothermal fluid flow.
