Interview with Troy Boisjoli, CEO of ATHA Energy Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atha-energy-tsxvsask-district-scale-uranium-discovery-potential-in-untested-basin-7260Recording date: 27th June 2025ATHA Energy Corp. (TSXV: SASK) has delivered significant exploration results from its Angilak Uranium Project in Nunavut, Canada, marking a pivotal breakthrough for the uranium exploration company. The results from the first two drill holes of their 2025 exploration program demonstrate both new discovery potential and continued expansion of their established resource base.The company's maiden drill hole at the KU Discovery Target successfully intersected uranium mineralization within the previously undrilled Angikuni Basin, validating years of systematic geological work. The hole intersected 7.1 meters of composite mineralization, including 0.7 meters of high-grade uranium with radioactivity readings reaching 18,490 counts per second. CEO Troy Boisjoli emphasized the significance: "First hole along a 31 km long trend across a basin with no drilling in it and we hit mineralization in the first hole."Concurrent with the new discovery, ATHA successfully extended mineralization at their flagship Lac 50 deposit, which hosts a historic resource of 43 million pounds of uranium at 0.69% grade. The drilling extended mineralization approximately 100 meters down-dip, demonstrating the deposit remains open and unconstrained.The geological features encountered bear striking similarities to the world-class Athabasca Basin, home to some of the highest-grade uranium deposits globally. The drill hole intersected a 23-meter-wide graphitic fault zone with approximately 90 meters of structural offset, conditions historically associated with significant uranium deposits.ATHA's management team brings proven uranium development experience from Cameco and NexGen operations, providing execution capability for advancing projects through development stages. The exploration success occurs against strengthening uranium market fundamentals, with CEO Boisjoli noting: "The absolute reality is that we do not have enough pounds at a significant scale to meet demand."The 2025 exploration program comprises approximately 10,000 meters of diamond drilling, focusing on expanding the Lac 50 footprint while systematically testing regional targets along the 31-kilometer trend.View ATHA Energy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atha-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

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

Today, we're looking at the rising separatist movement in Alberta and Saskatchewan, with new polling data showing around 25% to 30% support for the motion prior to the election — only for that number to have climbed to 36% following Mark Carney and the Liberals' fourth straight consecutive electoral victory. Plus, Rebel boss Ezra Levant took a short trip to Bermuda, where he investigated Carney's firm, Brookfield Asset Management's ties to the notorious tax haven. And finally, unemployment in Canada is nearing 7% and the Bank of Canada warned yesterday that a prolonged trade war poses a serious threat to the national economy.
