KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Baselode Energy, a fully funded uranium exploration developer, has achieved success in the Athabasca Basin region, holding a portfolio of highly prospective uranium exploration properties.
  • Baselode Energy's main focus is on the ACKIO discovery, which is a potential open-pit uranium mine. The project has expanded and shown promising results, with multiple zones of mineralization starting at shallow depths.
  • The uranium market is currently experiencing a surge in demand, driven by increased nuclear energy needs globally. The supply side, however, is struggling to keep up, with many previous mines on care and maintenance and limited production capacity.
  • The catalysts for money to flow into the uranium industry include rising spot prices, increased awareness and sentiment in the market, and successful funding deals for uranium companies. The outlook for Baselode Energy includes further exploration and drilling at ACKIO and Hook projects, with potential plans for additional projects in the future.

BEST MOMENTS

"This is an extremely hot market and it's really dominated by the lack of supply and increased demand." 

"Nuclear energy does not have the best reputation in the public's eye. Albeit it's the greenest, safest source of Baseload power globally, and has been since the 50s." 

"We're even seeing it in the news. You're seeing it on CNN. You're seeing it on Bloomberg. You're seeing it on the Financial Times. It's being mentioned. So that, yeah, that basically means that the sentiment is there, the awareness is there, and the money is flowing in." 

"We're seeing those same spot price levels now and the sophisticated investors, the market makers, the funds, they're all seeing that same price value now."
