Aventis Energy Shares Approach Critical Exploration Milestone

Aventis Energy CA05358H1091

While the equity of Canadian uranium explorer Aventis Energy has faced significant pressure in recent weeks, declining approximately 25% over the past month to trade near €0.16, this market performance appears disconnected from the company's advancing operational progress. With a fully funded drilling campaign on the immediate horizon, January 2026 is poised to be a pivotal month for the company and its valuation.

A key overhang for shareholders was removed in late 2025. Through the successful completion of two financing rounds in October and November, Aventis Energy secured roughly 2.5 million CAD. This capital ensures the company's upcoming winter drilling program is entirely financed, eliminating near-term concerns about share dilution from further fundraising. Management can now focus exclusively on executing its exploration strategy.

Operational Momentum Builds Ahead of Drilling

Contrary to the share price trend, field activities at the Corvo Project in the Athabasca Basin are proceeding on schedule. Since November 24, 2025, geological teams have been conducting an extensive ground gravity survey. This geophysical work covers over 29 kilometers and includes more than 5,000 measurement points. The objective is to pinpoint subsurface density anomalies, which frequently correlate with uranium mineralization, thereby de-risking future drill targets and enhancing the probability of success.

The data from this survey will be integrated in the coming weeks with results from earlier helicopter-borne surveys to finalize precise locations for the imminent drill program.

January Launch for Landmark Drilling Program

The company's calendar for the new year is set. A diamond drilling program totaling 3,000 meters is scheduled to commence in January 2026. This will mark the first drilling activity on the Corvo property in over four decades, targeting high-grade potential:

• The Manhattan Showing: This untested target area has already yielded surface sample assays as high as 8.10% U₃O₈.
• Newly Discovered Anomalies: During 2025 field work, radioactive occurrences were detected that exceeded the standard scale readings of radiation instruments—a strong indicator of intense mineralization.
• Strategic Jurisdiction: The project is situated approximately 60 kilometers east of Cameco's world-class McArthur River mine, placing it within a proven, top-tier uranium district.

The start of drilling in January will initiate a news-rich period for Aventis Energy. For investors, the coming weeks represent a critical juncture, as the market's assessment of the company's potential in the Athabasca Basin will soon be tested by tangible results from the field.
