Myriad Uranium (CSE:M) 200 Million Pound Potential as Rush Merger Delivers 100% Project Control

Interview with Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/myriad-uranium-csem-60-boost-to-potential-100-mlbs-wyoming-project-7466Recording date: 4th September 2025Myriad Uranium (CSE:M) represents a compelling investment opportunity in the rapidly evolving uranium sector, where technological advancement and market dynamics have created significant value creation potential. The company's flagship Copper Mountain project in Wyoming has undergone a transformative resource upgrade through modern measurement techniques, with CEO Thomas Lamb reporting that advanced gamma probe technology and laboratory assaying have delivered 50-60% grade improvements over historical estimates established in the 1970s.The technological advantage stems from replacing outdated Delayed Fission Neutron probes with modern gamma probe technology, revealing substantially higher uranium concentrations than previously recognized. Laboratory assays have confirmed these improvements, with grades above 1,000 ppm showing 60% boosts and those above 500 ppm demonstrating 50% increases. This upgrade positions the project's resource estimate significantly above the historical 15-30 million pound baseline, with expansion potential to 65 million pounds through surrounding prospects and ultimate potential of 200 million pounds according to US Department of Energy assessments.Market dynamics have shifted decisively in Myriad's favor as operational challenges at high-profile ISR projects have created investor skepticism toward in-situ recovery methods. Fund managers are now explicitly seeking conventional mining projects, with Lamb noting that sentiment has transformed from questioning conventional approaches to actively pursuing them. This preference shift provides Myriad with a significant competitive advantage, as the Copper Mountain project's geology supports conventional mining in the northern section while maintaining ISR optionality in the southern portion.The company's strategic consolidation through its planned merger with Rush Rare Metals will eliminate joint venture complexity while adding complementary assets. Currently holding an option to earn 75% of Copper Mountain, the merger will provide 100% ownership while incorporating Rush's high-grade Boxy project in Quebec, which contains 11% uranium and up to 27% niobium grades. This transaction exemplifies the "1 plus 1 equals three" value creation potential in the current uranium market.Myriad's Red Basin project in New Mexico has emerged as an unexpected value creator following the state's emergence as a nuclear technology hub. Acquired for just $525,000 Canadian, the project now attracts significant attention from major technology companies including Microsoft and Amazon Web Services, which are pursuing uranium supply partnerships to support data center and AI computing infrastructure. The convergence of Los Alamos National Laboratory expertise, state-level funding initiatives, and private technology investment is creating a unique development ecosystem.With $2.5 million in cash, Myriad maintains sufficient capital for immediate strategic objectives through a capital-efficient validation strategy. The company plans to conduct approximately eight targeted infill holes in Copper Mountain's central pit area to establish grade upgrades definitively before expanding to peripheral prospects. This methodology provides maximum leverage from limited drilling while building investor confidence in broader resource potential.The company's positioning as a US-focused uranium producer with assets in Wyoming and New Mexico aligns with domestic supply chain security objectives, positioning for potential strategic partnerships or acquisition scenarios. Management's plan to migrate toward US exchange listings could unlock significant valuation multiples while providing enhanced liquidity for investors seeking exposure to the uranium sector recovery.View Myriad Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/myriad-uraniumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

During a complex merger between two telecom companies, Mariano faced the challenge of uniting team members with different cultures, practices, and tools. His initial approach of selling Agile theory instead of focusing on benefits failed because he forgot about the "why" of change. The breakthrough came when he shifted from being an Agile evangelist to becoming a facilitator who listened to managers' real challenges. By connecting people and letting the team present their own solutions to leadership, Mariano successfully created unity between the formerly divided groups.

Dr. Rebecca Hunter, CEO of Baselode Energy Corp. (TSXV: FIND) (OTCQB: BSENF), joins me to discuss the news released today that the merger with Forum Energy Metals Corp. (TSXV: FMC) (OTCQB: FDCFF) is official, after the completion of the plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act, as previously disclosed on June 24, 2025. The pro-forma Company is well capitalized with over $12 million in cash and having multiple high-potential projects within its asset base, including the flagship Aberdeen Project in Nunavut and the Hook-ACKIO Project in Saskatchewan, in addition to another dozen secondary exploration projects.    During Baselode's Annual General and Special Meeting to be held on September 16, 2025 Baselode will seek shareholder approval to change its name to Geiger Energy Corporation and is to be traded under the ticker (TSX.V:  BEEP). Geiger Energy will be led by Rebecca Hunter, PhD as CEO, Stephen Stewart as Chairman, and will be backed by the Ore Group team. James Sykes, prior CEO of Baselode Energy, will remain on as Director and Special Advisor given his experience and track record of discoveries in the Uranium space.   Rebecca outlines the big picture vision of the new combined company, and the synergies between the geological and exploration approaches between both teams and portfolios of projects.  She points to the ongoing 2025 exploration program their 100% owned Aberdeen Project in the Thelon Basin of Nunavut, Canada; where drills are currently turning at multiple unconformity-style and basement-hosted uranium targets across Aberdeen for a roughly 4,000 meter 15-20 exploration program. The key four targets for this year's program are Loki, Bjorn, Tarzan, and Lobster; but we remind listeners of the many other targets across the project like Thor, Lightning, Squiggly River, Ned, Ayra, Nymeria, Willow, Apollo, and Starbuck.  Additionally there are 2 known basement-hosted uranium deposits that have received expansionary exploration work the last 2 seasons at both Tatiggaq and Qavvik, which will be the focus of future drill campaigns.   In additions to the Aberdeen Project, Forum brings into Baselode Energy 9 other projects in the Athabasca Basin, of Saskatchewan; with some projects having existing joint venture (JV) agreements in place, and some projects that are available to option out to other partners.  Most notably, the Northwest Athabasca JV Project with Global Uranium, will have upcoming winter exploration work.   Then shifting over the Baselode portfolio folio of projects, there will be a winter drill program slated for  the Hook – ACKIO Project that will be following up on exploration work the past couple of seasons at the various pods and clay alteration zones.  Other projects of note are the Catharsis and Bear projects along the Key Lake Trend, as well as Shadow in  Northern Saskatchewan along the Virgin River Shear Zone.     If you have any follow up questions for Rebecca or the team at Baselode Energy, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Baselode Energy

Railroad workers are sounding the alarm about the potentially catastrophic consequences of the proposed mega-merger of two of the nation's Class 1 freight rail companies. “Union Pacific said it would buy smaller rival Norfolk Southern in an $85-billion deal to create the country's first coast-to-coast freight rail operator,” Reuters reported in July. “If approved, the deal would be the largest-ever buyout in the sector.” If this giant merger goes through, what will it mean for railroad workers, customers, and for the general public? In this episode of Working People, we speak with a panel of six veteran railroaders and members of Railroad Workers United to get a workers' eye view of the proposed mega-merger and what it will mean for rail labor, the US supply chain, and for the public writ large.   Speakers: Ron Kaminkow is a member of Railroad Workers United, currently serving as a trustee, and he is also a member of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen (BLET), Division 51 in Reno, Nevada.

Jeff Kurtz was a railroad engineer and union member for 40 years and is a member of Railroad Workers United. He served as a union officer most of his career, including eight years as president of BLET Local 391 and chairman of the BLET Iowa State Legislative Board, where he oversaw safety and legislative matters for the union in the state for four railroads for 10 years. He retired in 2014 and served as state representative for one term in the Iowa House after winning the 2018 election in his House district. Derek Masters is a member of Railroad Workers United and works as a conductor for a major Class 1 railroad, primarily in the Northeast. He is a member of SMART Transportation Division (SMART-TD).

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into intriguing new research that challenges our understanding of Earth's climatic history, the discovery of a rare astronomical phenomenon, and China's advancements in lunar exploration.Did a Comet Trigger the Younger Dryas Cool Off?A groundbreaking study has emerged suggesting that a massive comet may have instigated Earth's Younger Dryas cool off event, traditionally attributed to glacial meltwater. Analysis of ocean sediments published in the journal PLOS One reveals geochemical clues that support the hypothesis of Earth encountering a disintegrating comet around 12,800 years ago. This event could have led to rapid cooling, with temperatures plummeting by approximately 10 degrees Celsius within a year. The findings indicate a potential link between comet dust and significant climate shifts, inviting further investigation into this captivating theory.Discovery of a Rare White Dwarf Merger RemnantAstronomers have identified an ultra-massive white dwarf star resulting from the merger of two stars, rather than the evolution of a single star. This discovery, made possible by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, suggests that such white dwarf mergers may be more common than previously thought.

Chuck Todd opens with critical media industry news as Nexstar's acquisition of Tegna threatens to devastate local TV journalism through consolidation that will create duopolies and slash newsroom jobs while fundamentally altering how Americans receive local information at the worst possible moment for democratic accountability. He shifts to Trump's complex role as a self-perceived "mediator" rather than Western ally in Ukraine negotiations where his deliberate inaction has inadvertently forced Europe to take security more seriously while Putin's biggest strategic miscalculation remains never giving Trump a political win that could justify backing off. Then, he offers an analysis of how American political strategy has become deliberately divisive through sophisticated microtargeting technologies. He explains that Obama's 2012 victory was misinterpreted and incorrectly assumed identity politics would define future elections when class divisions have actually become the primary fault line in American life.  He argues that the American public still responds positively to authentic unity messaging—suggesting the current toxic political environment is more a product of deliberate strategic choices than inevitable differences and could be reversed by leaders willing to reject a divisive playbook.Moody's Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi joins Chuck with a stark warning: the U.S. economy is heading toward a recession largely of its own making, driven by Trump's tariff policies, immigration crackdowns, and federal spending cuts that are creating a perfect storm of economic headwinds. Zandi explains that while tariff impacts are just beginning to surface as companies burn through pre-tariff inventory, the real damage will come from unfilled jobs due to deportations, AI displacing professional services workers, and federal layoffs hitting employment just as troubling indicators emerge—from empty Vegas casinos reminiscent of the 2008 financial crisis to homebuilder sentiment at its lowest levels since COVID. The economist argues that Trump's potential corruption of Bureau of Labor Statistics data makes forecasting nearly impossible at the exact moment when reliable economic intelligence is most crucial for navigating mounting risks.The conversation reveals how global economic interconnectedness makes America's policy mistakes everyone's problem, with Zandi warning that U.S. recession would likely trigger worldwide downturn while protectionist policies reverse decades of beneficial globalization—pointing to Brexit's GDP damage as a cautionary tale. He explains why the Federal Reserve faces impossible choices between supporting growth and fighting inflation, while businesses turn to shrinkflation rather than price increases and courts may ultimately strip Trump of tariff powers. Looking ahead to spring 2026, Zandi sees persistent inflation, unfilled jobs, and productivity gains from AI investment that won't materialize quickly enough to offset immediate economic damage, all while massive national debt creates long-term fiscal pressures that could force a reckoning sooner than anticipated—making this recession uniquely self-inflicted through deliberate policy choices rather than external shocks.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment. Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction01:00 Housekeeping note - Will release 3 different versions of audio pod03:00 Nexstar buys Tegna, will consolidate and devastate local TV news 05:15 Merger will create local duopolies for TV affiliates, fewer journalists07:30 Merger will have drastic effects on how people get local information08:30 Trump holds court with Zelenskyy and European leaders09:45 Trump sees himself as a mediator rather than ally of the west11:00 Trump's inaction has forced Europe to take security more seriously12:45 Can't sell American public on putting U.S. troops in Ukraine15:30 Putin's miscalculation is never giving Trump a win18:15 If Trump exerted leverage, Putin would back off21:15 Putin has united Europe22:15 American political strategy is deliberately divisive & polarizing23:15 Campaigns used to treat undecideds as moderates24:30 Campaigns discovered independents had a wide range of views25:15 Digital tools allowed for microtargeting of voters26:45 Obama's reelection win was misinterpreted29:00 Both parties thought identity would define politics when it was class30:15 Class is the dividing line in American life32:00 The public does respond to authentic unity messaging34:45 Mark Zandi joins the Chuck ToddCast 35:30 Tariff impacts starting to show up in the economy 37:15 Surprising the impacts haven't been more stark? 38:30 Companies haven't gone through all pre-tariff inventory 39:15 Are there conditions for an interest rate cut? 40:30 Fed will weigh growth over inflation 42:30 Federal layoffs and funding cuts impact on employment 44:00 Major trouble for the jobs market on the horizon 45:15 Immigration policy will leave jobs unfilled 46:15 AI is impacting professional service jobs 48:45 Vegas is empty, similar to before the financial crisis 49:45 Indicators of brewing economic trouble? 51:45 Homebuilder sentiment the lowest since Covid 52:30 If we don't dip into recession, what prevents it? 54:30 What will the economy look like in the spring of 2026? 57:15 Will tariff increases lead to persistently high inflation? 58:45 Businesses are choosing shrinkflation over price increases 1:01:15 Courts could take tariff power away from Trump 1:02:45 Is there hidden productivity in the data due to AI? 1:05:15 AI will boost productivity in the future, just not yet 1:06:00 Will huge investment in AI create jobs/growth? 1:07:30 How can we forecast economics if BLS data is corrupted? 1:11:30 The BLS needs more resources to produce better data 1:12:00 If government data isn't reliable, what's the alternative? 1:15:15 The economic impacts of unreliable government data 1:17:15 If U.S. goes into recession, the world likely does too 1:18:45 The long term effects of a global race toward protectionism 1:21:00 US benefitted from globalization, reversing it is a negative 1:22:00 Brexit the perfect example of protectionism hurting GDP 1:23:45 U.S. economy bounced back best from Covid 1:25:00 When will the massive national debt catch up with us? 1:26:45 Trend lines show a day of reckoning over debt is coming 1:28:00 U.S. policy will be directly responsible for a recession1:30:15 Chuck thoughts on interview with Mark Zandi 1:31:00 Ask Chuck 1:31:15 Have the Reagan Republicans given up? 1:35:45 Are the modern American oligarchs similar to those of the 1860s? 1:39:30 Is Trump taking over DC to dictate the results of elections?

A major acquisition involving two TV companies could have a major impact on news and viewing patterns in the Tampa Bay area. Nexstar, owner of News Channel 8, is buying Tegna, owner of 10 Tampa Bay, for more than six billion dollars. This would put the local NBC and CBS affiliates under the same ownership.

In this episode of the Mark and Pete Podcast, we rise to the occasion with three very different but equally fascinating stories. First, Mark and Pete chew over the Hovis–Kingsmill merger, asking whether two of Britain's biggest bread brands combining is good news for the consumer or just a corporate loaf too far. Expect plenty of puns, poetry, and a reminder from Scripture about trusting God for our daily bread (Matthew 6:11). Next, we pause to remember Biddy Baxter, the legendary Blue Peter editor who shaped generations of children's television. With her passing at the age of 92, we revisit her legacy of imagination, badges, and of course the immortal catchphrase: “Here's one I made earlier.” Pete links her work to Proverbs 22:6 — training up a child in the way they should go — while Mark offers one of his trademark poetic tributes. Finally, we celebrate sporting greatness as Armand Duplantis breaks the world pole vault record for the 13th time — his third this year. With humour, insight, and Philippians 3:14 ringing in our ears, Mark and Pete explore what it means to press on toward the goal. A blend of wit, wisdom, poetry, and Bible commentary — this is classic Mark and Pete.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.

This segment outlines a purported plan by Donald Trump to use federal authority, including the National Guard, to "clean out" illegal immigrants from sanctuary cities. The speaker cites Washington, D.C. as a test case, where federal control could allow for cooperation with ICE, bypassing local "sanctuary policies." The host argues that Democrats protect illegal immigrants to "steal" congressional seats via the census and replace American voters. The segment also features clips of a Chicago alderman and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, who the hosts claim provide evidence that Democrats are "enamored with dangerous criminals" and are in a partnership with cartels. The hosts also touch on other topics, including a claim that Americans are drinking less alcohol due to financial reasons, and a discussion of Donald Trump's second term, which they believe will be more effective due to his "red pill" moment after his legal challenges.

Interview with Nic Earner, Managing Director & CEO of Alkane Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/alkane-mandalay-merger-reshapes-mid-tier-gold-landscape-7155Recording date: 8th August 2025Alkane Resources (ASX:ALK) has successfully completed its transformative merger with Mandalay Resources, establishing a dual ASX and TSX-listed gold and antimony producer operating three mines across Australia and Sweden. The strategic combination creates a mid-tier producer generating over 160,000 gold equivalent ounces annually with robust cash flow of nearly $100 million over the past twelve months.The merged entity operates geographically diversified assets including the Tomingley gold mine in New South Wales, Costerfield gold and antimony mine in Victoria, and Björkdal gold mine in northern Sweden. This diversification across premier mining jurisdictions provides operational stability while reducing single-asset dependency risks that plague many smaller producers.Management has outlined a clear three-pillar growth strategy focused on maximizing value from existing operations, pursuing strategic acquisitions of 80-120,000 ounce annual producers, and achieving market re-rating through enhanced scale and liquidity. CEO Nic Earner emphasized the company's commitment to operational excellence, noting "We have a culture within the group of making sure we deliver on guidance," with Alkane meeting production targets in all but one year since 2014.The merger provides significant financial strength with pro forma cash of A$218 million and no meaningful debt obligations, enabling flexible capital allocation for organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Near-term catalysts include completing highway relocation at Tomingley, developing the True Blue extension at Costerfield, and optimizing higher-grade opportunities at Björkdal, supported by a $40 million annual near-mine exploration budget.Management believes the combined entity's production profile and cash generation capabilities position it for valuation re-rating, with peer comparisons suggesting companies of similar scale typically trade above 1.4-1.5 billion Australian dollars in market capitalization. The dual listing strategy aims to broaden the investor base and improve liquidity, potentially facilitating inclusion in relevant mining indices and access to passive investment flows.View Alkane Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alkane-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

   The Royals got a great win in Boston on Wednesday night, incredibly, it's their 10th straight win in the final game of a series.  The whole thing was caught on film as a popular CBS television crime drama was filming at Fenway for an episode this fall.    The NFL coughing up the NFL Network for 10% equity in ESPN is one of the great deals of all time.  The NFL Network lost a lot of money over the years and now they have their best products on a bigger platform to make even more money.  It's controversial to say the least.   Patrick Mahomes says he has to be better this year for the Chiefs to succeed and I agree.  The real question is how serious he is about it.  Is this training camp lip service or does Mahomes really think he has to get better?    Putin has indicated he's ready to end the war in Ukraine as Trump is about to level incredible financial hardship on Russia.  There's reportedly a summit for next week.    Meanwhile, in DC, Trump is calling in the National Guard to make the capitol safe again.    An illegal alien in KCK reached fame as part of a Netflix series in 2019 and now he says he can't take it here anymore and is self deporting.  You have to hear these details and why this is so perfect.    The New Zealand Air Force saves three Americans in Antarctica and Trump is using his paycheck to remodel the White House historical association gift shop.
