That is weird that Etrade didn't pick up the news. They re-posted the news today as well. Seems like the project has potential. The area has uranium in high concentrations.
ORIGINAL: RETRANSMISSION: Sienna Acquires the 10,845 acre "Dragon Uranium Project" Bordering Cameco in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan
2024-01-18 09:48 ET - News Release
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - January 18, 2024) - Sienna Resources Inc. (TSXV: SIE) (OTC Pink: SNNAF) (FSE: A1XCQ0) ("Sienna" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has acquired the 10,845 contiguous acre "Dragon Uranium Project" bordering Cameco Corporation (CCO, CCJ) in the world renown Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan. According to the World Nuclear Association (WNA), the highest-grade uranium mine in the world is Cameco's Cigar Lake in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada. It has an average grade of 14.69% U3O8. The Athabasca Basin is home to the highest-grade uranium deposits in the world, which includes the highest grade uranium mine in the world owned by Cameco Corporation. In 2021, the Fraser Institute ranked Saskatchewan as number one in Canada, the second-best jurisdiction globally. Sienna management cautions that past results or discoveries on properties in proximity to Sienna may not necessarily be indicative of the presence of mineralization on the company's properties.
Jason Gigliotti, President of Sienna states, "Uranium prices have hit a 16 year high this week and management feels that diversifying into uranium while keeping our lithium focus makes sense. Establishing a large footprint in the most prolific uranium address on the globe bordering the biggest name in uranium, Cameco, provides Sienna and Sienna shareholders with exposure to the best performing sector in mining in the past year. Management continues to try to add projects that are accretive to the growth of Sienna and we have enough cash on hand to forward these projects."
About Sienna Resources Inc.
Sienna has recently acquired the 10,845 contiguous acre "Dragon Uranium Project" bordering Cameco Corporation (CCO, CCJ) in the world renown Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan. Also, Sienna recently expanded the "Elko Lithium Project" in Elko County, Nevada. This project consists of approximately 1840 contiguous acres directly bordering Surge Battery Metals' (NILI) "Nevada North Lithium Project" in Elko County, Nevada. Sienna is also one of the larger landholders in Clayton Valley Nevada. Sienna's Clayton Valley projects include the Blue Clay Lithium Project, the Silver Peak South Project, and the Clayton Valley Deep Basin Lithium Project. Clayton Valley is home to the only lithium production in North America, being Albemarle Corp's (ALB) Silver Peak deposit. This project is also near Tesla Motors Inc.'s (TSLA) Gigafactory in Nevada. On March 18, 2021, Schlumberger New Energy Venture (SLB) announced the development of a lithium extraction pilot plant through its new venture, NeoLith Energy in a strategic partnership with Pure Energy (PE). The deployment of the pilot plant will be in Clayton Valley, Nevada, USA. The NeoLith Energy sustainable approach uses a differentiated direct lithium extraction (DLE) process to enable the production of high-purity, battery-grade lithium material while reducing the production time from over a year to weeks. Results from this pilot plant are expected in 2024 and could have a significant impact on the brine prospects within Clayton Valley Nevada as Sienna is located in the deepest section of this brine deposit.
This project was acquired via staking.

UPDATE 2-Schlumberger unit to launch Nevada lithium plant as EV demand rises
Thu, March 18, 2021, 6:46 AM·1 min read
In this article:
(Adds details on direct lithium extraction process)
March 18 (Reuters) - Oilfield services firm Schlumberger's New Energy division said on Thursday it would launch a lithium extraction plant in Nevada to cash in on the surging demand for the battery metal from electric vehicle makers and technology companies.
The division said it has invested more than $15 million in the direct lithium extraction process and expects the development and operation of the Nevada plant to require similar funding.
Schlumberger New Energy said it would extract lithium from brine, which occurs naturally around its proposed project site at Clayton Valley in Nevada, in a way that's more efficient than the industry standard of using evaporation ponds.
This method is also used by privately held Lilac Solutions and Standard Lithium Ltd, which count as competitors for Schlumberger's unit in the direct lithium extraction space.
Demand for battery-grade lithium is projected to grow exponentially, driven by growth in the electric vehicle market, and efficient production of the metal has become an important topic for regions, industries, and technology companies.
Earlier this year, top lithium producer Albemarle Corp said it would double production at its facility in Silver Peak, Nevada, while the U.S. Bureau of Land Management gave final approval to Lithium Americas Corp's Thacker Pass lithium mine in northern Nevada.
Schlumberger New Energy said the commissioning of its Nevada facility will begin following the receipt of all necessary permits, with NeoLith Energy intending to begin operations before the end of 2021. (Reporting by Arundhati Sarkar in Bengaluru; Editing by Ramakrishnan M.)

Nornickel partially suspends operations at Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky mines
Moscow, February 24, 2021 — Nornickel, the world’s largest producer of palladium and high-grade nickel and a major producer of platinum and copper has partially suspended its mines Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky.
On February 12, during tunnelling operations, natural groundwater inflow was detected at the 350 meters depth mark in the mine headwall at Oktyabrsky mine. Due to the increased water inflow to the drainage systems of the mine and in accordance with safety procedures and applicable law, the Company has partially suspended operations at the mine until flooding ceases. The waterlogging is currently being eliminated.
Nornickel’s First Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Sergey Dyachenko, commented: “Partial suspension of the Oktyabrsky mine was required as a preventive measure to ensure the safety of our employees. Operations at the Taimyrsky mine have also been partially suspended, since there are connected underground workings between the two mines, and water has found its way into this mine’s horizon. We are currently installing a cofferdam to stop further water inflow. Once the cofferdam is in place, we will be able to estimate the amount of water accumulated in the mine workings and enhance our response efforts to drain the workings as quickly as possible. We are doing our best to eliminate the flood as quickly as possible, to minimise its impact on our production plans. We will assess the impact of the partial mine suspension on our metal production guidance once the relief operation is complete”.
