The Atkinson Mesa project covers 5,863 acres, including 128 unpatented lode mining claims, and 4 DOE (US Department of Energy) uranium mining leases. The project also includes approximately 2,702 acres of unpatented lode mining claims and 18 patented (fee simple) mining claims spanning 360 acres. Several past producing mines are present on the property, including the important King Solomon mine complex, a large-scale underground mine that was one of the most significant uranium producers in the entire Uravan Mineral Belt2. The property is situated within one of the most substantial uranium-vanadium mineralized areas within the entire Uravan Mineral Belt2.
