We’re Hopeful That Fission Uranium (TSE:FCU) Will Use Its Cash Wisely

Source: Shutterstock We can readily understand why investors are attracted to unprofitable companies. For example, although software-as-a-service business Salesforce.com lost money for years while it grew recurring revenue, if you held shares since 2005, you’d have done very well indeed. Nonetheless, only a fool would ignore the risk that a loss making company burns through its cash too quickly.

So, the natural question for Fission Uranium ( TSE:FCU ) shareholders is whether they should be concerned by its rate of cash burn. In this article, we define cash burn as its annual (negative) free cash flow, which is the amount of money a company spends each year to fund its growth. We’ll start by comparing its cash burn with its cash reserves in order to calculate its cash runway.

Expert confirms Canadian uranium derived at Infini site

Infini Resources’ Talus prospect in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador has revealed high-grade uranium in soil samples. A globally-renowned glacial geology expert has confirmed that high-grade uranium mineralisation found in soil samples at Infini Resources’ Portland Creek project in Canada has been derived from the site and not glacially-transported.

Dr Martin Ross, who has authored or co-authored 86 research publications in the field, conducted a desktop analysis at the site to provide a better understanding of the geology within the project area – particularly at the Talus prospect where lab-busting soil grades were found to be running up to 74,997 parts per million uranium oxide in July.

Management says it engaged Dr Ross to determine the likelihood of its uranium in soils being linked to potential glacial movement and to confirm its working exploration model prior to undertaking diamond drilling activities at the project ground in the province of […]
