The uranium could also give Denison increased flexibility to negotiate long-term supply arrangements with future customers along with production from Wheeler River, if the in-situ recovery project is developed.

“The physical uranium holdings that we expect to acquire will represent a sizeable portion of Denison’s share ( 2018 prefeasibility study ) of the expected C$290 million of initial capital costs for Wheeler River,” said David Cates, President and CEO of Denison in a release. “As a result, we expect this transaction to enhance the long-term financial stability of the company, as we advance towards a definitive development decision.”

In 2011, the Fukushima Daiichi power plant was the site of the worst nuclear disaster in a quarter century. TEPCO/AFP via Getty Images It has been a decade since the Japan nuclear disaster caused the energy industry to rethink the safety of the power source, but the event hasn’t led to the destruction of the market or uranium demand.

Instead, it may have highlighted the importance of nuclear-power generation in the world’s efforts to provide clean energy.

“It would be far from accurate to say that Fukushima was the death knell for the nuclear industry,” says Jonathan Hinze, president at nuclear-fuel consultancy UxC, LLC.

On March 11, 2011, Japan suffered from a 9.0-magnitude earthquake , the largest ever recorded in the country. The massive tsunamis created by the quake flooded the Fukushima Daiichi power plant and led to the worst nuclear disaster in a quarter century. “Fukushima obviously was a huge event […]

Summary

Because uranium is a non-cyclical commodity, Cameco and other uranium miners did alright last year despite all the upheaval.

Between utilities drawing down their nuclear fuel stockpiles and new reactors being built around the world, global mined uranium demand is set to increase significantly in coming years.

In anticipation of higher demand going forward, the spot uranium price did bottom half a decade ago. Uranium prices need to go much higher in order to stimulate more production. Cameco is set to benefit from higher prices, given its ample economic reserves, an ability to produce uranium profitably, as well as its capacity to increase mined production in response to higher prices. When I first mentioned that uranium prices may have bottomed half a decade ago, there were many people who doubted that it could happen. I did buy some Cameco (NYSE: CCJ ) stock soon after I called what […]

The North Shore Global Uranium Mining ETF [URNM] could have plenty of fuel for growth in 2021 as countries go nuclear. The fund was up 24.6% year-to-date at $53.45 on 5. Furthermore, it hit an intraday high of $61.67 on 17 February.

The North Shore Global Uranium Mining ETF has kept up the positive momentum from 2020 when it soared 68.4%. Despite the number of nuclear reactor operating globally falling to a 30-year low in July last year, the fund had a strong performance.

According to the World Nuclear Industry Status Report, total operating nuclear capacity fell 2.2% year-over-year to 362 gigawatts by mid-2020. The slide was mainly because there were fewer nuclear reactors in operation, but COVID-19 production disruptions at uranium mines have also played a part.

The drop in supply has led to higher uranium prices and the spot price of the commodity climbed 20.5% in 2020, according to data […]

TSX-V-listed GoviEx Uranium reports that, with nuclear energy having shown resilience in 2020, the spot uranium price has been in a “gentle uptrend” for the last four years after having reached its cyclical low of $18/lb of U 3 O 8 in December 2016.

The company notes that despite 2020 having been strongly dominated by the Covid-19 pandemic, the company nonetheless adapted to this challenging environment and made progress by improving its financial position, advancing its pipeline of uranium mine development plans, specifically in Niger, and beginning the assessment of “compelling” gold prospects in Mali. In addition, GoviEx says the positive momentum of its activities in 2020 has continued into this year.
