1) Reopening of borders & airspace just announced👇
2) In past $GLO made sure to purchase material domestically or close to🇳🇪 as much as possible for different reasons
3) GLO just got a new shipment of mining equipment👇
= No interruption of mine construction

🇳🇪 just announced the partial reopening of airspace & the reopening of borders with Tchad,Libya, Algeria,Mali,Burkina Faso (meaning Western, Northern & Eastern border of 🇳🇪)
=> No possible future construction interruption at DASA $GLO due to material not able to cross borders
Temporary troubles in the country, I’m making preparations to be able to buy some more $GLO

Don’t underestimate the impact of the crowd investing 1% (+ hedge funds) of their portfolio in a small sector market cap through a $URA $URNM $URNJ $HURA position, bc they heard that “apparently there is a

We know that there is a global supply problem
More &more
#uranium
production delays & reduced uranium production forecasts
vs
More &more operational license extensions of existing reactors, unexpectedly increasing uranium demand for coming months/years
While:
- secondary supply is gone
- uranium demand is price inelastic
Friend flagged this Friday. Looks like Rosatom is now expecting first
#uranium
production from Priargunsky No. 6 in 2028 (in their words "ambitious"). I believe WNA and consultant models have first production in 2026 so a 2 year delay vs. consensus...

That’s 100k lb
#uranium
not available for purchase anymore
Funny thing is:
1) Mike Alkin saying ~2 months ago that at that time at that price there wasn’t any uranium available in spot, maybe couple 100k lb for delivery in April…
2) KAP warning since then
It’s going to be fun
My more detailed overview on enCore Energy $EU
1) Rosita Extension started small
#uranium
production in November 2023 & production start at Alta Mesa in June 2024 = revenue = cash inflow!
Steadily increasing production to 3 Mlb/y by end 2026
2) 70M in cash
3) No debt!

supply & demand models available today are based on a situation of underfeeding. In reality Western underfeeding is gone since ~9 months now & preparations for overfeeding in coming years are underway:

-ConverDyn restarts in 2023
-Port Hope increase in production in 2024
-Continued ramp up of Philippe Coste plant to 2024
Will lead to overfeeding and significantly higher uranium demand
Fyi. 100,000lb is less than 3 months of

There are currently 436 reactors in the world and 60 new reactors in construction as we speak.

Hi everyone, many uranium investors are focused on the daily impact of SPUT on the spotmarket without seeing the bigger impact of it in the longer term (coming months, 2021/2024).
