DOE Seeks Information on Next-Gen Nuclear Reactors

Last week, the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) requested information for its plans to establish commercial quantities of high-assay, low-enriched uranium. Currently, the National Nuclear Security Administration under this department makes uranium for its nonproliferation and defense missions only. The information gathered will be used in a report the Department of Energy has to present to Congress in the near future. Sen. Joe Manchin, who is also the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee chair, voiced his support for the move, stating that he was pleased that the department was progressing with this announcement, which would facilitate the domestic supply…

Battery Technology to Diversify in Next Decade

For the longest time, lithium ion batteries have been utilized for stationary energy storage systems and vehicle electrification. However, new opportunities for other battery chemistries that don’t rely on nickel, cobalt or lithium are being created, as lithium ion’s production supply chain comes under growing scrutiny. The need for energy storage solutions that are more affordable and suitable for the storage of energy for long durations also affords substitute energy storage technologies opportunities to grow in the market. While sodium-ion batteries may be particularly suitable for the electric car market, experts believe that alternative battery chemistry deployment will be especially…

Asteroid Nereus Holds Precious Metals Worth Billions

Space mining is the exploitation of minerals from bodies in outer space. This type of mining has been heralded as a new way to obtain minerals without the environmental risks associated with land mining. This is in addition to revolutionizing the commercial space economy by creating employment opportunities for private astronauts and robots. Many believe that space mining is the future because it can facilitate the exploration for and extraction of precious metals and rare earth minerals from near-Earth asteroids. However, little has been done to advance the idea. Recently, an egg-shaped, near-Earth asteroid with a 330-meter diameter passed near…

Newly Launched Uranium Fund Sending Shockwaves Through Nuclear Fuels Market

The Sprott Physical Uranium Trust was established roughly six months ago and is the only publicly listed fund in North America to invest in physical uranium. Currently, the Canadian-listed fund holds about one-third of the global annual supply of uranium, which is set to increase as time goes by. The trust’s establishment and significant growth has been sending shockwaves through the nuclear fuels market, which has spurred a rally in the heavy metal this year. Reports from Sprott show that its assets have risen in value to reach $1.9 billion, which has forced the product to increase its financing limit…
