As more countries renew their commitments to nuclear energy as a way forward toward decarbonization, Basin Energy (ASX:BSN) CEO Pete Moorhouse believes proven uranium jurisdictions like the Athabasca Basin will continue to see increased investor traction.
Speaking to Investing News Network during the 2024 Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada convention, he said there has been a “massive increase” in interest in Basin Energy.
“We set out … specifically to provide the ASX with a uranium pure-play exploration company,” Moorhouse said. “We had an opportunity to really scour the Earth … so we went out, we looked for jurisdiction, we looked for explorability, where you can actually explore for these large-scale deposits with a sensible market cap.”
Basin Energy has three projects located in Saskatchewan’s Athabasca Basin: North Millennium, Geikie and Marshall. All are in close proximity to world-class, high-grade uranium discoveries and mining operations, including Baselode Energy’s (TSXV:FIND,OTCQB:BSENF) ACKIO discovery and 92 Energy’s (ASX:92E,OTCQX:NTELF) Gemini discovery.
When asked about the company’s plans for 2024, Moorhouse said, “I hope to be in a position to be able to advance North Millennium or Marshall, subject to the results of the (DEM) surveys. Lots of newsflow coming: drilling is now, AM (survey is) happening now. With further money, we’d be able to do more drilling all in the next six to eight months. So exciting times.”
