VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Dec. 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stallion Uranium Corp. (the “Company” or “Stallion) (TSX-V: STUD; OTCQB: STLNF; FSE: FE0) is pleased to announce that it has appointed Matthew Schwab as CEO of the Company effective November 29th, 2024. Mr. Schwab is an acclaimed exploration geologist and experienced executive located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where he has played pivotal roles in the discovery and development of multiple significant uranium deposits.

Matthew Schwab’s Career Highlights:

  • Senior Exploration Geologist at NexGen Energy Ltd. where he was instrumental in the targeting and discovery of the Arrow uranium deposit in February of 2014.

  • Member of the development team with Hathor Exploration Ltd., who contributed to the sale of the Roughrider deposit to Rio Tinto in January of 2012 for $654M.

  • Co-Founder and Senior Vice President of Axiom Exploration Group Ltd., an international consulting firm focused on the provision of geological, geophysical, and environmental services to the mineral exploration and natural resources sectors.

  • More recently, President & CEO of Kraken Energy Corp., a CSE listed uranium exploration and development company where he successfully assembled a portfolio of high value uranium properties in the southern United States.

Drew Zimmerman, outgoing CEO of Stallion Uranium said, “Stallion pivoted into the uranium market two years ago with the conviction that uranium and nuclear power were going to see a renaissance unlike any other. Given that view, we established key landholdings in the underexplored southwestern Athabasca Basin and built on those initial claims through a JV with Atha Energy to hold the largest land package in the region with the sole focus of finding the next world class uranium deposit.”

“The Stallion team has done incredible work to transform that land package from the unknown into 9 tier-one targets with incredible discovery potential. As Stallion moves into a more technical phase of exploration, I’m excited to announce that Matthew Schwab, with a history of discovery in the basin, will lead the team to drive that exploration success! I look forward to supporting the Company in my new role as an active board member.”

Stallion extends its gratitude to Drew Zimmerman for his dedication and leadership over the past four years. His hard work and diligence have provided a strong foundation for the Company moving forward. Mr. Zimmerman will remain on the board of the Company, and Stallion wishes Mr. Zimmerman all the best in his future endeavors, knowing that he will bring his enthusiasm, vision, and expertise to bear wherever he goes.
