Interview With Alka Singh: Sights On Uranium

IBTimes reported an interview with Alka Singh about her ambitions and expectations for the uranium sector with The Energy Report.

Mine2Capital Founder, Alka Singh said:

the uranium sector had just started to show some life in late 2010 and early 2011 when the unprecedented tsunami and earthquake hit Japan and brought the sector back to low levels in March 2011. Many countries started reducing their nuclear power generation. Japan has since shut down all of its 54 nuclear power plants, some only for maintenance. And Germany has announced a phaseout of all nine of its nuclear plants by 2022. This has had a negative impact on the uranium price, and of course on uranium equities. Ultimately, given its long-term safety record, low-carbon emission profile and its ability to produce low-cost baseload power, we continue to believe that nuclear power generation will play a key role in the electricity supply chain.
