Mining Forum Americas 2026 summary
30 Sep, 2026Strategic initiatives, operational updates, and technical progress
Recently appointed a Chief Technical Officer with 20 years of ISR experience and strengthened technical expertise through new leadership and a technical committee.
Owner-operator drilling model and deployment of the first drill rig have significantly improved drilling productivity and reduced costs.
Achieved a jump in drilling rates from 540 ft/day to 1,400 ft/day, enhancing project efficiency.
Board and technical team bring decades of uranium and mining experience, including multiple central processing plant builds and refreshed executive leadership.
Wellfield operations have advanced with multiple header houses in various stages, aiming for repeatable wellfield performance.
Resource base, growth pipeline, and exploration
Holds 66 million lbs of uranium resources, with 59 million lbs at Lance and 7 million lbs at Dagger; all resource estimates are JORC-compliant.
Exploration target of 104–165 million lbs could push total resources above 100 million lbs, with ongoing exploration and optimization studies.
Largest known ISR project in Wyoming, with contiguous resource areas and significant exploration upside.
Regional and satellite growth pipeline includes Kendrick, Barber, and Dagger projects, with Kendrick fully permitted and development underway.
The Lance Project covers 122.2 sq km, with over 7,500 drillholes informing resource estimates.
Market dynamics and strategic positioning
U.S. uranium demand far exceeds domestic supply, with only 2 million lbs produced against 56 million lbs consumed annually.
Exposed to spot market with minimal contracted sales, maximizing leverage as prices rise.
U.S. government investing downstream in uranium supply chain but not yet upstream with miners.
The uranium market is entering a structurally undersupplied phase, with global demand forecast to increase materially to 2040.
Military and defense needs require U.S.-produced and processed uranium, creating unique market opportunities.
