This Form 6-K consists of:
“NWT Uranium Corp. (TSX-V: NWT; OTCBB: NWURF) is pleased to update its shareholders regarding the activities of Niger Uranium Corp., of which NWT is the largest shareholder.
Niger Uranium’s 2007-2008 field program at Irhazer and In Gall commenced in November, according to a quarterly filing issued in late December by the company. Work will be completed in stages, with the first phase scheduled to include 8,200 feet (2,500 meters) of diamond drilling to test prospective targets located along structures that host existing uranium mines. The second phase is designed to follow-up on earlier results and is scheduled to include up to 24,600 feet (7,500 meters) of additional drilling.
Concurrent with the drill program, Niger Uranium plans to trench and sample several targets to test for mineralization, geology and structure. In addition, grids indicating historical drill sites will be re-established and, where possible, will be tested by down-hole radiometrics.
“NWT is pleased with the aggressive program underway in Niger,” said Marek J. Kreczmer, President and CEO of NWT Uranium. “As Niger Uranium’s largest shareholder, we look forward to the further advancement of our investment.”
NWT contributed the Irhazer and In Gall properties to the Niger Uranium joint venture. The two properties have returned uranium values ranging from 0.22% U3O8to 1.0% U3O8 from five surface rock samples collected from outcrops, as reported in a press release on May 29, 2007, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. These samples were submitted for re-analysis after they exceeded the detection limits of uranium tests routinely used to analyze samples from Niger. Producing mines and deposits in Niger typically grade from 0.1% to 0.42% U3O8, with the highest grades being mined at greater depths.”
