Hopes are high that 2021 will confirm the start of a new bull market in uranium.

Many people are predicting that in the near to mid-term the nuclear fuel could see plenty of screens glowing green in the best way possible.

Fans of the heavy metal are quietly confident that the classic combination of reduced supply and increasing demand will be a winning formula for both the element’s spot price and the wider uranium industry.

The high expectations for the uranium market come amid gains in the wider mining and commodities sector with Mining.com proposing that a ‘post-pandemic supercycle in commodities demand’ had contributed to a new record high of $1.3 trillion market capitalisation for the world’s 50 most valuable mining companies.There are encouraging signs that conditions are ripe for uranium to lead the commodities pack.

Uranium turnaround has companies targeting SA deposits

Boss Energy is looking to recommence production at the Honeymoon uranium mine in northeast South Australia. A number of uranium stocks rallied this week amid speculation Joe Biden had included nuclear energy in his clean energy program, delays to planned closures of nuclear power plants in the US driving up demand and concerns of a supply squeeze when nuclear utilities replace existing supply contracts.

Perth-based Boss Energy says it is in discussions with global lenders to secure funds to become Australia’s next uranium producer with the resumption of operations at the Honeymoon mine in South Australia.

The publicly-listed company told the Australian Securities Exchange this week the Honeymoon project required just $82.5 million (US$63.2 million) in capital expenditure to resume, one of the lowest funding requirements of any pre-production uranium project worldwide.

Honeymoon is about 80km north-west of Broken Hill and is one of only four permitted uranium mines in Australia. It […]

Uranium Week: The Benefit Of Extending Usage of Nuclear Plants

As the weekly uranium spot price continues to move in a tight range, new research explores the effect of delaying nuclear plant closures on global uranium demand.

-The effect on uranium demand of delaying plant closures
-Fourth quarter results for Kazatomprom
-Uranium spot price falls marginally

In the wake of President Biden’s inclusion of nuclear in his clean energy plan, new research from Bank of America (BofA) poses the question "what if expected US nuclear plant retirements over the next 10 years were postponed?"If expected closures in the period 2021-2030 were delayed to beyond 2030, then there would be "an additional 26mlbs of global uranium (U3O8) demand over that period."While this is just a 2% increase, it is of assistance and could lead to increased pressure on utilities to move forward new contracting, notes the analyst.In the US there are twelve nuclear reactors expected to shut down between […]

Ur-Energy: Uranium Catalysts Are Great, But Beware Of Speculative Fervor

Summary

Uranium miners have skyrocketed in value over the past few months due to a decline in global production and possible support for Nuclear from the Biden Administration.

Ur-Energy is my favorite North American producer since it rarely dilutes equity and has managed to control cash-flow drawdowns well.

URG may receive necessary permitting for a major growth project early this year and expand development. While Ur-Energy has many great growth catalysts, it is extremely expensive today with its price-to-sales ratio at a historical long-term peak. Looking for more investing ideas like this one? Get them exclusively at Conviction Dossier. Get started today » Uranium miners have seen strong performance over the past few months. Prices initially jumped last spring as Cameco ( CCJ ) decided to reduce production at one of the world’s most productive uranium mines.

Ur-Energy Inc. (NYSE American: URG | TSX: URE | FSE: U9T), a company engaged in uranium mining, recovery, and processing activities, is benefiting from demand drivers in the U.S. market that are set to help U.S. uranium producers.

Ur-Energy operates the Lost Creek In-Situ Recovery (ISR) uranium facility in Wyoming. The company has produced, packaged, and shipped more than 2.6 million pounds of uranium since the start of operations in 2013.

U.S. National Uranium Reserve

The current positive sentiment surrounding uranium stocks is a reflection of uranium energy being part of a clean-energy economy and the United States government moving forward in creating a uranium strategic reserve that should benefit domestic producers.In December 2020, the U.S. Congress passed a spending proposal that earmarked US$75 million in new funding for a national uranium stockpile . The Bill is awaiting the President’s signature to become a law. The Congressional funding of a […]

Why Cameco Stock Rocketed as Much as 22% Today

Why Cameco Stock Rocketed as Much as 22% Today

What happened

Shares of uranium miner Cameco ( NYSE:CCJ ) rose as much as 22% in early trading on Monday. The big news doesn’t appear to be related to any Reddit board, but to a more mundane Wall Street phenomenon: an analyst update. So what

Pure-play uranium miners like Cameco have been struggling through a period of very low uranium prices, following the Fukushima reactor meltdown in Japan. Although the energy commodity’s price has picked up somewhat over the last year, it remains well below peak levels. A part of the problem is that, despite the fact that nuclear power does not produce carbon emissions, it is often maligned as an undesirable option. Large disasters, while rare, are the main culprit for that. Image source: Getty Images. However, Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) has suggested that the closure of U.S. nuclear power plants may be delayed past 2030. That […]

Fission Uranium Focuses on Resource Expansion and Project De-risking with 43-Hole Drill Program

Fission Uranium Focuses on Resource Expansion and Project De-risking with 43-Hole Drill Program

Drill Program Highlights

Resource Indicated Expansion: R780E Zone (Winter 2021) Drilling expected to commence Q1, 2021

Drilling will focus on the eastern portion of the R780E, between lines 900E and 1125E where a large portion of the mineralization is presently classified as Inferred and the potential to intersect multiple stacked zones is high.

Drilling will include both infill and step-outs from known mineralization and at a spacing of ~15m x 20m (horizontal / vertical) to allow for conversion from Inferred to Indicated. Drill holes on and around line 900E have the potential to intersect the projected plunge of the high-grade core at R780E. Resource Indicated Expansion: R840W Zone (Summer 2021) Drilling expected to be completed in Q3, 2021 The R840W zone is located ~500m west of Patterson Lake. It is the 2 nd largest of the mineralized zones after the R780E zone and due to its predominantly Inferred […]

Target Price Raised on U.S. Uranium Firm Advancing Texas Project

Target Price Raised on U.S. Uranium Firm Advancing Texas Project

February 1, 2021 (Investorideas.com Newswire) ROTH Capital Partners report calls the advancement of the Burke Hollow project in Texas a "Positive Sign." In a Jan. 27 research note, analyst Joe Reagor reported that ROTH Capital Partners raised its target price on Uranium Energy Corp. (UEC:NYSE AMERICAN) to $2.90 per share from $2.40 after the company announced its plan to advance its Burke Hollow uranium project in Texas. The current share price is about $1.67.

"The Burke Hollow advancement is positive," Reagor added.

He explained why and described the 2021 work plan for the project, estimated to cost less than $2 million.

At Burke Hollow this year, Uranium Energy intends to install 45 more monitoring wells and do further exploration and infill drilling. This work, Reagor highlighted, should "bring the project for construction decision." Should the company choose to move forward, construction would take about 12–18 months, the analyst estimated.Also positive for Uranium […]

Top commodities: gold, cobalt, uranium

Top commodities: gold, cobalt, uranium

Those who were in gold about a year ago can look forward to an approximately 25 percent higher gold price. Many, such as Saxo Bank, believe that the end of the road has not yet been reached in terms of price. Saxo Bank expects a gold price of at least 2,200 U.S. dollars. The reason for this is a weakening
U.S. dollar, the cause of which is the rising national debt.

Another raw material, uranium, is also forecast to have a bright future. This is because, thanks to many new nuclear reactors, demand for uranium is rising. And in recent years, a low uranium price has often prevented exploration and investment efforts. And a scarce raw material is always a raw material that becomes more expensive. As a result, uranium companies are also becoming more valuable and moving into the focus of investors.

The fight against emissions is not only […]
