Top Uranium Countries by Reserves

Top Uranium Countries by Reserves

February 17, 2021 (updated February 17, 2021) Published by

Uranium is an important commodity in the energy sector, and knowing the countries with the top reserves is key. Mined uranium resources have provided fuel for nuclear power generation for more than 60 years, and today nuclear power serves 10 percent of global energy needs.

Global uranium demand is anticipated to grow in the coming years, which bodes well for future uranium prices . According to the World Nuclear Association (WNA), more than 50 nuclear reactors are under construction worldwide, and significant increases to capacity at existing plants are also planned.

Global uranium production totaled 53,656 tonnes of U3O8 in 2019, the latest year for which numbers are available. The five top uranium-producing countries in the world are Kazakhstan, Canada, Australia, Namibia and Niger, and they were responsible for the vast majority of that production.

r/canyonminebets: Wagering on Uranium around the Grand Canyon

r/canyonminebets: Wagering on Uranium around the Grand Canyon

February 17, 2021 (updated February 17, 2021) Published by

Am I the only one who, while watching GameStop go bananas on the stock exchange, was reminded of how the 1872 Mining Law has been put to work for the Canyon uranium mine ? Yes, indeed, I imagine I am. But I assure you, there’s some resemblance between all the call options recently placed on GameStop and the mine’s 40-year tenure on our public lands. What on Earth am I talking about?

The general idea behind the 1872 Mining Law was to authorize what trespassing miners had already been doing for many years: going onto federal public lands to search for pay dirt. Under the law, a miner who found a “valuable mineral deposit” and followed a list of other rules could stake a mining claim and get the government’s blessing to mine.

Over a century later, in the late 1970s, a uranium-mining company used this law to stake two […]

U.S. deep freeze prompts natural-gas rally, and uranium prices melt up

U.S. deep freeze prompts natural-gas rally, and uranium prices melt up

February 17, 2021 Published by

Winter storms in parts of the south and central U.S. have led to a surge in the need for power, rallying prices for natural gas as traders look toward a rise in nuclear power demand and consumption of uranium.

The southern Plains has been “transformed into southern Siberia due to brutally cold Arctic air that has toppled century-old records,” AccuWeather reported on Tuesday.

The spot price of wholesale electricity on the Texas power grid jumped by more than 10,000% to over $9,000 per megawatt hour late Monday morning, compared with prestorm prices of less than $50 per megawatt hour, according to a Reuters report , citing data from the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, or ERCOT.

About 36% of U.S. natural gas demand comes from the electric power sector. Prices for the fuel on the futures market rallied Tuesday , with the front-month March contract trading up nearly 15 cents, or 5%, […]

What happened

Shares of Denison Mines ( NYSEMKT:DNN ), which owns 90% of the Wheeler River uranium mine development project, rose 10% in early trading on Feb. 9. That comes on the heels of a notable price move the day before, which has some uranium industry watchers thinking that short-squeeze issues might be at play in some fashion. Like yesterday, other uranium miners rose today, as well, though none had reached the 10% level by 11:30 a.m. EST. So what

All in, there’s really no way to tell exactly what’s moving the uranium market or Denison right now. There’s conjecture, but not a lot of material news. However, there has been news out of Denison.
