Emerging Markets Report: A Case for Uranium

An Emerging Markets Sponsored Commentary

There's a funny thing about resource companies, particularly those who mine the dirt beneath their feet.

Sometimes that earth moves on its own, figuratively of course, but it moves.

This virtual movement can be good or bad. Gold buyers saw crypto siphon off investors at one point and the metal didn't appreciate like most other assets in the recent bull market. The cost of mining gold was likely unchanged, but the spot price in the market wasn't rising due to external, global factors.

But that door of impact swings both ways as we begin to introduce Laramide Resources Ltd. (TSX: LAM) (ASX: LAM) (OTCQX: LMRXF), an exploration and development company, which holds diversified uranium assets strategically positioned in the United States and Australia that have been chosen for their low-cost production potential. Let's examine for a moment the geopolitical factors through the reportage of completely unaffiliated news outlets who are in the collective, making a case for uranium, and we believe, a reason to dive deeper into a review of Laramide.

Before we do that it is necessary to establish a little pedigree for Laramide herein. You may have not noticed in the string of domestic and international ticker symbols above but Laramide is traded on the OTCQX, the highest tier of OTC Markets. The OTCQB, where most stories we cover trade, is the second tier of the markets operated by OTC Markets Group, below OTCQX and above Pink.

Now, back to Uranium.

In a report from S&P Global with the headline "Uranium buyers, Ukraine conflict drive spot price to 10-year high" yellowcake's recent price appreciation can be directly pegged to a buying spree by financial entities, mainly Sprott, and to the war:

"Russia's invasion of Ukraine has threatened to rattle uranium supply chains and spurred a wave of investor buying in the market, pushing uranium prices above $50/lb for the first time in 10 years."

That article was written March 11, 2022. In May, that price was even higher .

A mining publication this week wrote, "US, Canadian companies set to soar on Russian uranium ban," based on comments by GoldSilver.com's senior precious metals analyst, Jeff Clark.

The impact has already been felt in uranium bellwether stocks like Cameco and NexGen with an industry analyst stating that those two equities "have more room to run after climbing more than 40 per cent so far in 2022." Here's a link to that report .

It didn't take us long to curate compelling headlines about the current market for uranium. Bullish reports abound including this one from S&P Global Market Intelligence again with the header, " High Prices Lure Uranium Explorers to the U.S. "

We are at the very beginning of our coverage of Laramide Resources which appears to be in the right industry at the right time. Located in the safe and politically stable jurisdictions of the United States and Australia, Laramide's exploration development uranium projects include one of a handful in the world not under the control of a major mining company. Its US projects are in the historic uranium mining region of New Mexico and another in Utah very close to the only fully-licensed and operating conventional uranium mill in the United States.

We will watch how Laramide, in its exploration and development stage potentially catches the tailwinds of this uranium cycle to potentially push their projects toward production.

These turbulent, terrible even times, have moved a market in favor of the Uranium market.

Laramide Resources Ltd. (" Laramide " or the " Company ") (TSX: LAM) (ASX: LAM) (OTCQX: LMRXF) is pleased to announce completion of the initial diamond drilling phase of the project ramp-up at its 100% owned NRC licensed Crownpoint-Churchrock Uranium Project, near Gallup, New Mexico, USA ("Crownpoint").  The diamond drill program, having a total drilled length of 6,030 feet (1,838 meters) was comprised of seven drill holes located in areas of uranium mineralization within Section 17, Township 16 North South, Range 16 West and located along the boundary between Section 17 and Section 8. Three of these drill holes were "twin holes" drilled within 20 feet (ft) of historic drill holes designed to confirm the stratigraphic position of uranium mineralization, the relative thicknesses of mineralized intervals, the range of uranium grades that were encountered in the historical drill holes and to provide drill core for chemical assays and radiometric equilibrium analysis. The project is being managed by NuFuels, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Laramide Resources Ltd., which oversees Laramide's uranium asset portfolio in the United States . As reported on December 13, 2022 and January 23, 2023 Laramide has appointed SLR International Corporation ("SLR") of Denver, Colorado, to complete an NI 43-101 Preliminary Economic Assessment ("PEA") with respect to the Churchrock Uranium Project (the "Project").

North Shore Uranium (TSXV:NSU)

North Shore Expands Land Position at Rio Puerco

North Shore Uranium Ltd. (TSXV:NSU) ("North Shore" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has staked 27 additional mining claims (the "New Claims") at its Rio Puerco uranium project in northwestern New Mexico ("Rio Puerco" or the "Project"). The Project now includes 64 adjoining Bureau of Land Management ("BLM") claims.

In 2009, a historical uranium resource estimate of 6.0 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.09% eU3O8 for 11.4 million pounds of U3O8 was reported for Rio Puerco (the "Historical Resource"). Initial review of the historical data suggests the potential for in-situ recovery ("ISR") mining, the lowest cost method for producing uranium. The entire Historical Resource is located on the original 37 Rio Puerco claims (the "Original Claims"). Previously completed exploration work suggests that there is potential to expand the reported uranium mineralization on both the Original Claims and the New Claims.

xU3o8 Co-Founder Arthur Breitman.

From Nuclear to Blockchain: How xU3O8 is Reimagining Uranium Ownership

xU3O8 has reached a key milestone with the listing of its uranium-backed token across major crypto exchanges, opening the door for investors to gain direct exposure to uranium at a time when demand is accelerating, said Arthur Breitman, co-founder of Tezos, which provides the blockchain platform for xU3O8.

“xU3O8 is a tokenized asset. It represents tokenized beneficial ownership in uranium oxide,” Breitman explained. “And the platform uranium.io allows people to come in and then buy this tokenized ownership in uranium, which can be interesting for people interested in owning the commodity.”

Breitman also explained the advantages of buying tokenized uranium versus investing in uranium stocks or uranium funds.

Sweden Moves to Lift Uranium-Mining Ban Through Legislative Proposal

Sweden has announced plans to lift its seven year ban on uranium mining, with a proposal to amend its Environmental Code and Minerals Act expected in parliament later this year.

If approved, the changes would take effect on January 1, 2026.

The proposal follows the conclusions of a government inquiry completed in December 2024, which recommended that uranium be treated under the same legal framework as other concession minerals. That recommendation was reviewed by the Council on Legislation in June 2025, clearing the way for parliament to consider a repeal.
