GCL may be getting a boost soon.

Their 5.5% stake in URA - Uranium resources plc:

Maiden JORC expected before end of month!
The deposit has been geared towards in situ recovery which as I am sure you all know signicantly decreases the cost of production (currently production costs of about $20 per lbs of resource).


If you know the racket then facts:

URA
- has identified multiple roll fronts over mutilple tiers
- in situ recovery (only way to go these days)

Check out the URA thread and please comment as this is a play that will make GCL a huge profit IMO



All in my own opinion

[gardenarc] 21/3/2013 08:07

Well spotted side..

[tonsil] 21/3/2013 08:03

maybe as assets are so cheap they want to pile in
anyway read the AGM summary it was the main item of business

[p1nkfish] 20/3/2013 21:38

why should there be?

[tonsil] 20/3/2013 21:11

just read the AGM statement partic the 124million new shares at a a premium over asset value. rights issue imminent?

[sideshowbull] 20/3/2013 20:34

At last recorded check GCL have about 3.5% of their holding in URA.
Maiden JORC due any day let's see if they like the results and story...

[p1nkfish] 20/3/2013 20:06

came across a nuclear power ad on a wsj video article today:

[p1nkfish] 20/3/2013 06:54

Butterfly wing beat in Africa.
Will it cause a hurricane and if so where?

[gardenarc] 18/3/2013 19:04

At $200 U would be cheap.

[p1nkfish] 18/3/2013 10:59

strange how there is mispricing in the wider equity market but some commodities are relative bargains now - unless I've missed something. Uranium should be north of $70/lb and still cheap then.

Patience the name of the game here...

USA Update -

Full story @


Construction has officially begun on a new reactor at the Vogtle power plant in Georgia. It is the second AP1000 construction to start in America this week.

Some 5350 cubic metres of concrete were poured to form the basemat for the nuclear portion of Vogtle 3. It will support the reactor itself and buildings to shield it and house fuel handling facilities and auxiliary equipment.

First concrete at Vogtle 3 came just four days after the same milestone at VC Summer 2 - the first of two AP1000s being built by South Carolina Electric & Gas. Westinghouse CEO Danny Roderick said it had been "a week of momentous progress in bringing a new generation of safe, clean reliable nuclear energy to the USA."

Interesting read....general nuclear debate in Japan.

full story @


In Japan, two years after Fukushima nuclear accident, work resumes on new plant

OMA, Japan - At the remote northwestern tip of a snowy peninsula, beyond a small road of fishing shacks and empty one-story homes, 600 construction workers and engineers are building a brand-new nuclear plant for a country still recovering from the most severe atomic accident since Chernobyl.

The main reactor building is already at its full height, though draped in heavy fabric to protect it from the wind and freezing temperatures. A 500-foot crane swivels overhead. A completed power line stretches along a nearby ridge, where it might one day carry electricity down the peninsula and back toward the Japanese mainland - a place still fiercely divided over the long-term role of nuclear power.

Another reason for short term supply tightness.

[p1nkfish] 03/2/2013 19:23

worth a listen and interesting about 75% of the way through.

[p1nkfish] 18/1/2013 07:48

starting to warm-up nic ely as a sector. buys at these levels can still lead to decent upside over 12-24 months imho dyor.

Update Paladin

Full rel @

Paladin Energy Ltd: Quarterly Activities Report for Period Ending-31 December 2012
PERTH, WESTERN AUSTRALIA--(Marketwire - Jan. 17, 2013) - Paladin Energy Ltd ("Paladin" or "the Company") (TSX:PDN)(ASX:PDN) is pleased to provide its Quarterly Activities Report for the three month period ended 31 December 2013.

HIGHLIGHTS
Record sales revenue of US$133.9M for the quarter, selling 2.78Mlb U 3 O 8 at average price of US$48.10/lb.

Record quarterly and annual production at both the Langer Heinrich and Kayelekera mines.

combined production for the December quarter of 2.191Mlb (994t) U3O8 is an increase of 13.6% on the September quarter and is the equivalent of 103.1% of nameplate production of 2.125Mlb U3O8 for the quarter.

total annual production for CY2012 of 7.946Mlb (3,604t) U3O8 is a 34% increase over the previous calendar year.

Record Langer Heinrich production of 1.419Mlb (644t) U 3 O 8 is an increase of 9.9% on the previous quarter.

record recovery of 87.4% versus design of 85%.

feed grades of 805ppm U3O8.

demonstrated ability of the project to produce well above nameplate at design of 800ppm feed grades.

further optimisation initiatives underway.

Stage 3 Bankers' Completion Tests successfully completed.

Kayelekera production of 772,280lb (350t) U 3 O 8 is an increase of 20.9% on the previous quarter and is an all-time quarterly record.

quarterly production at 93.6% of nameplate while remaining constraints in the resin-in-pulp circuit (RIP) are being addressed.

feed grades of 1,159ppm U3O8 (design is 1,100ppm).

consistently improved acid plant production continued to provide positive cost implications with reduced dependence on imported acid.

increased likelihood of securing low cost grid power to site within the year is progressing well.

Cost savings and optimisation initiatives continue successfully with total costs and unit production costs reducing at both mines.

FY2013 production guidance of 8.0 - 8.5Mlb U 3 O 8 remains well on target.

A good summary piece from last year.



GCL also holds Cameco (8.3% of NAV 3rd largest holding) and Uranium Participation (7.6% of NAV 4th largest holding )

From UP website
Uranium Partipation is 100% Denison owned investment company.
Uranium Participation Corporation is an investment holding company which invests substantially all of its assets in uranium, either in the form of uranium oxide in concentrates ("U3O8") or uranium hexafluoride ("UF6"), with the primary investment objective of achieving appreciation in the value of its uranium holdings. The mission of the Corporation is to provide an investment alternative for investors interested in holding uranium. Denison Mines Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Denison Mines Corp., is the manager of Uranium Participation Corporation.

Could be some fireworks over coming months as this plays out..

Fission Energy

A combined Fission/Denison, may just be enough to re-ignite Cameco's interest in the area, but again Rio T may be in play as Fission's land is an extension of Hathor lands.

Just how close are Hathor (aquired by Rio T after Cameco withdrew.) and Fission's interests, see below
