Can Greenvale’s New Satellite Insights Deliver a Breakthrough at Oasis?

Advanced Satellite Data Enhances Uranium Exploration

Greenvale Energy Limited (ASX – GRV) has taken a significant step forward in its quest to expand the Oasis Uranium Project in Queensland by integrating Sentinel-2 multi-spectral satellite data into its exploration strategy. The European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 satellites provide high-resolution spectral imaging that has enabled Greenvale to detect subtle gas and mineral anomalies over a broad regional scale, offering fresh insights into the project’s potential.

The newly acquired data highlights multiple helium and radon gas anomalies, both recognised pathfinders for uranium mineralisation, alongside chlorite alteration zones. These anomalies closely correlate with previously identified magnetic, radiometric, and geochemical targets, reinforcing confidence in the prospectivity of the region surrounding the known Oasis deposit.

Targeting New Discoveries Beyond the Known Deposit

Greenvale has pinpointed nine priority exploration areas where the satellite data aligns with structural and radiometric features, as well as an additional seven areas of interest marked by coincident helium, radon, and chlorite signals. These findings suggest the broader Oasis region remains under-explored and ripe for discovery, with geological settings conducive to intrusive-related uranium deposits similar to the existing Oasis mineralisation.

CEO Alex Cheeseman emphasised the strategic value of the Sentinel-2 data, noting that it adds a powerful vectoring tool to the company’s exploration arsenal. "Beyond the known deposit, the broader Oasis region has been under-explored, so we are excited about the opportunity to make regional discoveries and ultimately build the scale potential at Oasis," he said.

Next Steps – Fieldwork and Ground-Truthing

With permitting processes underway, Greenvale plans to commence fieldwork in the first quarter of 2026. Initial activities will focus on ground-truthing the satellite-identified targets through geological mapping, handheld scintillometer surveys, portable XRF analysis, and rock chip sampling. This hands-on approach aims to validate the remote sensing data and refine the understanding of uranium mineralisation across the project area.

The integration of multispectral imagery with existing geophysical and geochemical datasets represents a modern, cost-effective approach to exploration, enabling Greenvale to efficiently prioritise targets and potentially accelerate discovery timelines.

Strategic Implications for Greenvale and the Uranium Sector

The Oasis Uranium Project, situated on pastoral land west of Townsville, benefits from a geological setting marked by Mesoproterozoic granites and structurally complex metamorphics, which are favourable hosts for uranium mineralisation. The new satellite data enhances the company’s ability to vector in on these mineralised zones, potentially leading to a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate that could underpin future development.

As global demand for low-emission energy sources grows, uranium exploration companies like Greenvale are positioning themselves to meet future supply needs. The successful application of Sentinel-2 data at Oasis may also set a precedent for similar exploration efforts elsewhere.
