Interview with Troy Boisjoli, CEO, ATHA EnergyOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atha-energy-tsxvsask-up-to-47-grades-defining-mineralized-potential-6890Recording date: 4 May 2025ATHA Energy emerges as a compelling uranium investment opportunity amid unprecedented nuclear expansion policies and shifting global supply dynamics. The Canadian exploration company controls significant uranium assets positioned to benefit from US executive orders targeting a quadrupling of nuclear power capacity from 50 million to 200 million pounds per annum.The company's flagship Angilak project holds a 43 million pound historic resource at an exceptional 0.69% U3O8 grade, comparable to world-class deposits. ATHA's 2024 drilling program achieved a remarkable 100% success rate across 25 drill holes, demonstrating the scale and continuity of mineralization. CEO Troy Boisjoli notes this success rate is "uncommon" in uranium exploration, indicating substantial metal endowment potential.Beyond the established historic resource, ATHA controls the entire unexplored Angikuni basin, spanning 31 kilometers of mineralized structural trend comparable to the Athabasca basin. This district-scale opportunity presents discovery potential analogous to early Athabasca exploration in the 1960s, with surface mineralization up to 30% uranium and historical drilling results showing grades up to 5.6%.The company's exploration program is led by Cliff Revering, former chief geologist responsible for bringing Cigar Lake into production. The concurrent drill programs target both additional work at established projects, as well as new discoveries.Market fundamentals support uranium price appreciation, with current conditions mirroring the 2006-2007 period that saw prices rise from the mid-$30s to $135-138 per pound. Boisjoli describes market tension as "a spring that's being coiled very very tight," driven by constrained global supply chains and accelerating demand from both traditional utilities and technology companies requiring nuclear power for data centers.Canada's strategic position as a stable uranium supplier becomes increasingly valuable as global supply chains fragment, with significant Kazakhstani production committed to China and Russia, creating what Boisjoli terms a "bifurcated uranium market."Learn More: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atha-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Winspace Orange Seal is a Women's Pro Team based in France. Yet, it has a rider from Alma, Que., one from Vancouver, one from Guelph, Ont., and a rider from Edmonton. They are Florence Normand, Nadia Gontova, Kiara Lylyk and Jenaya Francis. Currently, they are all based in Europe attending races, such as the Vuelta a Extremadura Femenina, Omloop Nieuwsblad, Danilith Nokere Koerse and Dwars door Vlaanderen.The team, Winspace Orange Seal, has been around since 2013. In 2022, when the squad was at the continental level, and called Stade Rochelais Charente-Maritime, it got an invite to the Tour de France Femmes, where it got hammered. Of the six riders who started the race, only one finished. This year, the team has been invited back. It's now moved up to ProTeam status. Also, its riders seem to be levelling up, as well. It will be exciting to see what they can do at the big event this July.The team has only 11 riders. Four of them are Canucks. In this episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine Podcast, you'll find out all about them, and how they all got on this French ProTeam.This episode of the Canadian Cycling Magazine podcast is supported by MS Bike. It has 11 rides across the country. These are top-notch, fully supported events. The first ones are in June in Alberta. The last one is Waskesiu, Sask. There are also rides in Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia. No matter which one you choose, there's still plenty of time to prepare. If you need some training tips, there are two-month and three-month plans for you on the Canadian Cycling Magazine website.Remember, through an MS Bike event, you raise funds, which go to help MS research and services.

Interview with Troy Boisjoli, CEO of ATHA Energy Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/long-term-uranium-investors-find-value-in-volatility-6766Recording date: 24th March 2025ATHA Energy Corp. is making substantial progress on its Angilak uranium project in Nunavut, Canada, which shows promising signs of becoming a major uranium resource. CEO Troy Boisjoli, formerly Cameco's chief geologist, recently outlined the company's exploration success and future plans.The Angilak project, acquired just over a year ago, already boasts a historic resource of 43.3 million pounds at 0.69% U308. Last year's 10,000-meter drill program expanded the mineralization zones, with all 25 drill holes successfully intersecting uranium. This work helped establish an exploration target range of 62-98 million pounds.A recently completed structural study has confirmed a 31-kilometer trend across the Angikuni Basin, showing high-grade uranium samples up to 47.6% U308 on surface at multiple locations. This extensive surface mineralization is something Boisjoli claims he has "never seen" in the Athabasca Basin, where he previously worked.The project shares geological similarities with Saskatchewan's uranium-rich Athabasca Basin but appears to have significantly more surface mineralization. Even sandstone samples within the basin show uranium values of 10-20%, compared to typical Athabasca alteration halos that might show only 10-20 parts per million.ATHA is focusing most of its resources on Angilak exploration in 2025, with crews already mobilized. The company's strategy includes expanding known mineralization around the Lac 50 trend, testing the previously undrilled "Mushroom Lake" outcrop, and exploring the newly identified structural corridor.While Angilak is in a remote area, Boisjoli sees Nunavut as a mining-friendly jurisdiction, noting that approximately 50% of its GDP comes from mining activities. The company has secured agreements with local communities and multi-year exploration permits.In terms of scale, Boisjoli noted that overlaying the Angilak project area on the northeast Athabasca Basin would cover an area stretching from Rabbit Lake to Cigar Lake, encompassing multiple mines. He suggested that a resource in the 80-100 million pound range would make the project "very attractive."Boisjoli believes the current uranium market fundamentals are strong, describing it as "a generational period" comparable to the 1970s in terms of demand growth. With supply constraints expected as major mines approach the end of their productive lives, he sees a significant opportunity for large-scale projects in favorable jurisdictions like Canada.View ATHA Energy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atha-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

James goes on a well-deserved rant about his local government doubling the road tax on electric vehicles. Despite rarely using highways, his Nissan LEAF EV is now subject to a tax that funds road repairs outside the city and it's six times what a similar gas vehicle would pay. It's a move that highlights how some governments continue to punish EV owners instead of encouraging clean transportation. Join The Clean Energy Show's CLEAN CLUB on Patreon for exciting perks! Meanwhile, California has unveiled an ambitious plan to deploy six million heat pumps by 2030. However, despite incentives, the state is projected to fall two million units short of its goal.
