Argentina’s Strategic Advantage as a New Frontier for Uranium Exploration

Argentina is emerging as one of the most compelling new frontiers for uranium supply, with the country’s National Atomic Energy Commission estimating about 80,000 tonnes of uranium as "exploration targets" across various geological environments. It offers a unique combination of geological potential, government support and existing nuclear infrastructure — all within a jurisdiction that is eager to expand its domestic resource base.

Global demand for uranium has increased in recent years, bolstered by renewed investment in nuclear energy and efforts to secure supply chains. Argentina’s pro-nuclear-energy stance and local technical expertise offer a promising new alternative for uranium exploration, as global demand for this critical mineral continues to soar.

Blue Sky Uranium Forges Ahead with Ivana Project Through Strategic COAM Joint Venture

Blue Sky Uranium (TSXV:BSK,OTCQB:BSURF,FWB:MAL2) is making significant strides in advancing its flagship Ivana uranium-vanadium project in Argentina. In a recent interview, President and CEO Nikolaos Cacos detailed the company's newly formed joint venture with Abatare Spain (COAM), a strategic partnership poised to accelerate the project toward production.

Cacos highlighted the establishment of a new joint venture company, Ivana Minerales, formed with COAM to drive the Ivana deposit forward. This collaboration represents a pivotal moment for Blue Sky, as COAM is committed to funding cumulative expenditures of US$35 million to acquire a 49.9 percent indirect equity interest in the deposit. Furthermore, COAM holds the option to increase its stake to 80 percent by completing a feasibility study and fully funding the project's costs.

“As far as our long-term objectives go, it achieves the first long-term objective of creating a pathway to take it right through to production, and allows us now to begin to look at and focus on our other 100 percent owned projects that we have … coming up with a second uranium discovery,” Cacos explained.

China's Breakthrough in Uranium Seawater Extraction Boosts Efficiency by 40 Times

Chinese researchers have unveiled a method of extracting uranium from seawater at a fraction of the previous cost and energy use, positioning the country to potentially secure long-term domestic supply.

Scientists from Hunan University have developed an advanced electrochemical system that can extract uranium from seawater more efficiently and economically than any method currently in use.

The innovation, led by Professor Shuangyin Wang and his team, features a novel dual-electrode design using copper at both the positive and negative terminals, allowing uranium ions to be collected simultaneously at both ends.
