Boss Energy brings on first new Australian uranium mine in over decade and issues nuclear warning

Boss Energy managing director and chief executive Duncan Craib during the 2022 Diggers & Dealers Mining Forum. Subiaco-based Boss Energy has kicked off mining activities at its Honeymoon uranium project amid a nuclear “renaissance”, which the company’s leader says Australia risks missing out on.

Boss is targeting first uranium production at its revived project in South Australia next quarter and in an announcement to the Australian Securities Exchange on Wednesday said that wellfield pre-conditioning for uranium extraction was now under way.

Boss managing director Duncan Craib told The West Australian that the company had first-mover advantage in a bullish uranium market.

“We’ve reached a significant milestone with the first commencement of a uranium mine in over a decade in Australia,” Mr Craib said.“There’s a lack of new production coming online and the projects that are in the pipeline generally require the uranium price to be above $US80 per pound to get away.”Boss […]

Uranium Energy (UEC): Is There Potential Growth for This Uranium Stock?

Uranium Energy Corp. ( UEC ) shares have seen notable upward movement, propelled by the rapidly escalating uranium prices. Prices have escalated to a decade-plus high this year as mounting anxieties about energy security prompt nations to reconsider nuclear energy in their shift from carbon-intensive fossil fuels to more sustainable energy options, especially in light of Russia’s actions in Ukraine.

As a critical component for nuclear reactors, uranium is expected to see increased demand in the coming years. According to projections from the World Nuclear Association, nuclear capacity is estimated to expand by nearly 80%, and demand for uranium will likely double by 2040 .

However, with Uranium Energy currently operating at a loss, it may be more beneficial for investors to explore alternative uranium stocks to capitalize on the potential upswing in nuclear energy. Furthermore, with its lofty valuation, there remains a significant risk factor. Its forward P/E of 105.80x […]

The myths and realities of Ukraine’s quest to boost uranium production

The price of uranium extracted from Ukrainian mines has become significantly lower than the cost of its extraction.

The Ukrainian energy industry is based on nuclear power. On average, nuclear power plants: Rivne, Khmelnitsky, South Ukraine and Zaporizhzhia (before its occupation by Russia) generated more than 55 per cent of Ukraine’s electricity.

Before the armed invasion, Ukraine’s nuclear reactors ran on Russian fuel. Since the start of the war, however, the country has refused supplies of Russian fuel. Nevertheless, according to Petro Kotin, the head of the national energy company Energoatom, fuel reserves should be sufficient for five to six years.

How generators became Ukraine’s hottest commodity Energy transition in Ukraine: Promises, plans, forecasts To avoid a shortage, Ukrainian nuclear reactors have been switching to American fuel. In September 2023, the first Westinghouse Electric nuclear fuel was loaded […]

So should Fission Uranium ( TSE:FCU ) shareholders be worried about its cash burn?

Uranium Prices Have Renewed Momentum as Supply Risks Mount

Oct 5, 2023

View all Rohan Reddy’s Articles

Major economies like China, India, Japan, Europe, and the United States embracing nuclear power and expanding their nuclear power capacities have uranium prices on an upswing. But with the demand for nuclear power rising, so are concerns about the global uranium supply chain. Spot uranium prices are up 47% year to date amid a host of favorable supply and demand dynamics. 1 Sources of price pressures run the gamut, including lower production guidance from producers like Cameco, a coup in Niger potentially affecting its output, and uranium physical funds becoming more active. In line to benefit from these price trends are uranium mining, enrichment, and nuclear component players, who all contribute to the world turning to nuclear energy as a reliable and sustainable power source. Key Takeaways

Questions about current production capacity as the world turns towards uranium have supported prices […]

Why ASX uranium shares could be in for a runaway reaction

If one segment of the Australian share market has dodged the doldrums so far in 2023, it’s ASX uranium shares .

Amid a rocket-like move in the price for the energy-dense metal, companies operating in the sector have soared. While the performance of many uranium producers has already been something of a fairytale, some industry experts think further upside could still be on the table.

Here’s what could catapult ASX uranium shares even higher. Increased supply doesn’t come cheap

Two variables govern the price of any commodity: supply and demand .For uranium, the demand story is well understood by many. Nuclear is regaining its position as an alternative energy source as climate concerns intensify and energy security is thrown in the spotlight amid strained geopolitical ties.Consequently, governments in the United States, Canada, Japan, China, Poland, and Turkey have delivered — or announced the development of — new reactors for the first […]

Best and Worst Performing ETFs in September

In this month’s roundup of the best and worst performing exchange traded products (ETPs), the uranium sector is by far the biggest winner, according to Morningstar data.

In our top 12 for September, Sprott Uranium Miners UCITS ETF Acc ( URNM ) gained almost 29% and topped the list (again), followed right away from the Global X Uranium UCITS ETF USD Acc ( URNU LN ).

The uranium market was disrupted by the outbreak of war, because Ukraine depended heavily on Russian uranium. Following the invasion, Ukraine, where there are 15 reactors, rushed to sign a 12-year supply agreement with Canada. Meanwhile, operators in Finland and Eastern Europe were hit the hardest as they owned Russian-made reactors – which only Russian companies knew how to supply. It took a year to find an American competitor capable of packing the uranium rods into the hexagonal blocks required by these plants.
