Azincourt Within A Practical Discovery Timeline For Uranium As Microsoft Implements Nuclear Strategy To Power AI Growth

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 3:21 PM on Friday, April 5th, 2024

“If you’re hunting for a uranium deposit, this is what you need to see … we continue to be well within a practical discovery timeline.” (Azincourt Energy CEO, Alex Klenman)

If you believe in the future of renewable energy, then you are going to love this interview with Azincourt Energy because CEO Alex Klenman has been forecasting the rising price of Uranium ever since we started interviewing him. The price has moved from around $50/lb to over $100/lb and now stands at $87/lb.

This surge in uranium prices can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, after a decade-long slump, uranium prices are on the rise thanks to a global shift in support for nuclear energy and subsequent rising demand.

Additionally, uranium funds are raising hundreds of millions of dollars to buy uranium.

MONSTROUS GROWTH OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE DRIVING DEMAND FOR NUCLEAR

However, the biggest “X Factor” that very few anticipated just 2 years ago, is the massive demand for energy being created by Artificial Intelligence.

The staggering growth of AI is driving demand for the power that only uranium and nuclear energy can deliver.

How staggering?

1.  Over the past decade, the amount of computing power used to develop AI models has amplified by a factor of 10 billion (yes BILLION, that is not a typo)

2.  And it isn’t stopping, with the amount of computing power needed to train AI is now doubling every six months.

EVEN MICROSOFT IS PLANNING FOR A NUCLEAR FUTURE

To meet the energy demands of AI, companies like Microsoft are hiring nuclear technology program managers to implement global Small Modular Reactor (SMR) and microreactor energy strategies.

LOCATED AMONG THE WORLD’S LEADING SOURCE OF HIGH-GRADE URANIUM 

Azincourt Energy controls a majority 86.1% interest in the 20,000+ hectare East Preston Uranium project, located in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, which is the world’s leading source of high-grade uranium and currently supplies over 20% of the world’s uranium.

The company has invested over CDN$3 million in exploration expenditures on the East Preston Project over the past three years. CEO Alex Klenman emphasizes that significant uranium discoveries in the Athabasca Basin, such as McArthur River, Key Lake, and Millennium, were primarily the result of drill testing of strong alteration zones related to conductor features, indicating promising prospects for East Preston.

2024 DRILL PROGRAM HAS BEGUN

Mobilization of equipment and crew has begun, with a focus on up to 1,500 meters of drilling across five holes. Trevor Perkins, VP Exploration, reiterates the significance of the 2024 drill targets, stating “Following up the clay alteration in the K- and H- Zones is a high priority. This alteration is what would be expected where a uranium deposit is present.”

AT THE FOREFRONT OF UNCOVERING THE NEXT FRONTIER OF URANIUM RESOURCES 

With a strategic focus on high-potential targets and a comprehensive exploration approach, Azincourt Energy has the potential to uncover substantial uranium resources in the Athabasca Basin. Watch this powerful interview with Azincourt Energy CEO Alex Klenman to learn more.

Azincourt Energy Uranium Drill Results “Significant”. Project Situated Among Largest Uranium Deposits In The World

Posted by Nicole Rojas at 10:15 AM on Thursday, October 5th, 2023

If you believe in the future of renewable energy then you are going to love this interview with Azincourt Energy because CEO Alex Klenman has been calling for the rising price of Uranium ever since we started interviewing him where it has moved from ~ $50/lb to now over $70/lb.

 

WHY?

1. After a decade long slump, uranium prices are on the rise, fueled by a global shift in support for nuclear energy and subsequent rising demand

2. Uranium Funds Are Raising Hundreds Of Million Dollars To Buy Uranium

But Uranium’s third bull market since 1968 still has a long way to go due to supply struggling to keep up after a decade of under-investment.

Indeed, Sprott Asset Management CEO’s John Ciampaglia believes there will be a supply shortage in the uranium space unless metal prices get to the $75 to $100 pound range.

Azincourt controls a majority 78.4% interest in the 25,000+ hectare East Preston Uranium project.

 

The company’s East Preston Uranium project is located in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan which is the world’s leading source of high-grade uranium and currently supplies about 20% of the world’s uranium

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

Over CDN$3 million in exploration expenditures on the East Preston Project over the past three years

 

If you’re hunting for a uranium deposit, this is what you need to see … we continue to be well within a practical discovery timeline. (CEO, Alex Klenman)

 

“The company considers the drilling results to date to be significant, as major uranium discoveries in the Athabasca Basin such as McArthur River, Key Lake, and Millennium were primarily the result of drill testing of strong alteration zones related to conductor features”

 

EAST PRESTON PROJECT

1. The East Preston Project is an exciting project situated in a prime location

2. Azincourt has identified several pathways below the earth’s surface, resembling roads leading to potential uranium hotspots. These pathways are not just basic routes; they’re intricate and complex, boosting the Company’s confidence in finding substantial uranium deposits.

3. Azincourt targets resemble the rich uranium finds at NexGen’s Arrow and Cameco’s Eagle Point mines 4. The advantage with East Preston is its position: it’s nestled close to the surface, making it more accessible.

5. This means that while the uranium spots are relatively easy to reach, they also have the potential to be extensive in depth, akin to skyscrapers with many floors to explore.

6. Highlighting its potential further, the East Preston Project is sandwiched between two renowned uranium-rich regions: the PLS-Arrow and Cameco’s Centennial deposits.

But wait there’s more…

In addition to uranium, Azincourt Energy has ventured into the lithium sector with its Big Hill Lithium Project in Newfoundland. This strategic move follows a successful reconnaissance program that uncovered a significant pegmatite field.

 

VP, Exploration Trevor Perkins states “The first round of exploration on the Big Hill Project was successful in identifying pegmatites on the property. The area is significantly underexplored and will require additional detailed work to examine the pegmatites identified, the extents of the systems, and determine if there are lithium bearing phases within the system. I was fortunate to spend a few days in the field with the team and recognize that we have barely scratched the surface on examining the property.”

Now sit back, relax and watch this powerful interview with Alex Klenman, President & CEO of Azincourt Energy Corp.
