  • The Uranium Supply Gap Is Coming | Justin Huhn on AI Demand & Uranium Stocks

    Justin Huhn, founder of Uranium Insider, joins Simon Catt for an in-depth discussion about the uranium market, nuclear power and the outlook for uranium stocks.Justin explains why the uranium bull market may still have much further to run, despite the recovery in uranium prices and mine production since the 2016 bottom. With global nuclear capacity expanding, China building dozens of reactors and the United States extending the life of its existing nuclear fleet, where will the uranium supply come from?They also discuss how AI data centres are changing the nuclear investment thesis—and why hyperscalers such as Amazon, Microsoft and Google could eventually secure uranium directly from mining companies.00:00 Introduction01:21 Why Justin became “the uranium guy”05:21 From technical trading to uranium investing07:20 Nuclear power in the global energy mix12:19 Nuclear growth in the US, China and India14:54 Is there a Russian uranium inventory overhang?16:13 Iran and uranium enrichment17:42 Will AI hyperscalers buy uranium directly?22:26 Could a technology correction hit uranium stocks?24:35 The DeepSeek sell-off and uranium equities29:58 What the SPUT discount tells investors31:48 Uranium utility inventories35:19 What uranium contracts reveal about future prices42:31 Where the recent uranium supply growth came from46:56 Why so few new uranium mines have been built49:16 The enormous uranium supply gap through 204055:01 Uranium Insider and the model portfolios58:19 Uranium investments: Forsys Metals and SPUT1:01:58 Closing thoughtsWhether you're a seasoned resource investor or building your first uranium position, this is essential viewing for understanding where we are in the cycle — and what comes next.www.uraniuminsider.comX @cattcalls www.cattcalls.comAvailable on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/0Q6k9rc...and Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... ⚠️ Disclaimer: The information contained in this video is for informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell securities.

  • $150+ Uranium, the Coming Supply Crisis, & Forsys Metals | John Borshoff "Mr Uranium"

    John Borshoff — the man behind Paladin Energy's legendary 100-bagger rise from 10¢ to $10+ — sits down with Simon Catt to deliver a masterclass on why uranium's biggest commodity moment is still ahead. With uranium spot prices around $85/lb and a structural supply deficit widening into the 2030s, Borshoff argues the market has not yet had its commodity day. He explains why $150/lb uranium is a conservative floor — not a ceiling — if the world is to incentivise the new mines required to fuel 400+ reactors and a coming wave of AI hyperscaler demand for nuclear power.In this interview:- Why the global energy transition has destabilised — not solved — the energy system- Uranium's price insensitivity to the cost of nuclear electricity (fuel is less than 5% of cost)- China's reactor build-out: from 4 reactors to 50, now targeting 200+ more- The post-2035 supply void: only 5 development projects globally, then nothing- Kazatomprom cutting output in 2026 — supply constraints deepening- SMRs arriving end of this decade, not 2035- AI hyperscalers as a new physical uranium buyer class- Why multi-jurisdictional, long-life producers will dominate this cycle- Borshoff's new role as CEO/Executive Director of Forsys Metals (TSE: FSY) building the next Paladin- Canadian exploration names he favours: ISO Energy, Maverick (pre-IPO, ASX-bound)- His single best investment idea for a 10-year uranium horizonWhether you're a seasoned resource investor or building your first uranium position, this is essential viewing for understanding where we are in the cycle — and what comes next.X @cattcalls www.cattcall.comAvailable on Spotify and Apple Podcasts⚠️ Disclaimer: The information contained in this video is for informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial advice, investment advice, or a recommendation to buy or sell securities.

  • Investing in the new commodity supercycle: Silver, Gold, Copper, and Critical Minerals

    We dive into the idea of “Supercycle 2.0” — a massive, multi-decade investment and industrial boom being driven not by China’s urbanisation, but by artificial intelligence. Drawing from Simon Catt’s latest “Coffee with Catt” commentary, we explore the argument that AI is not just a software revolution; it’s fundamentally a commodities, energy, and infrastructure story.

  • Arlington Rapallo 2025: Simon Catt Interviews Bill Scotting, CEO of First Tin

    Tin may not grab the headlines like lithium or copper — but according to Bill Scotting of First Tin, it has the best structural dynamics of any base metal today.In this interview from Arlington Rapallo 2025, Bill sits down with Simon Catt to discuss: • Why tin is the best performing base metal in recent years • The fragile supply side — outages in Myanmar, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Indonesia, and the DRC • Why over 90% of tin supply from emerging markets can’t keep up with demand • First Tin’s projects in Australia (Taronga) and Germany (Tellerhäuser), and the permitting pathway ahead • His outlook on financing — from government-backed debt to strategic off-take deals • Why he believes First Tin shares could re-rate 10x over five years once projects move into construction • The role of Metals X as a shareholder and the broader strategic landscape for tin • Why the energy transition and digital transformation will keep driving tin demand higherBill also shares his personal conviction — as both CEO and shareholder — in tin’s future, and outlines how First Tin could deliver real growth for investors.🎥 Recorded live at Arlington Rapallo 2025, Villa Porto Rapallo, Italian Riviera.🎬 Filmed by ​⁠‪@MiningNetwork‬ 🌐 More at www.cattcalls.com#Tin #Mining #Investing #BaseMetals #EnergyTransition #CriticalMinerals #FirstTin #CattCalls #ArlingtonRapallo2025

  • Visible Gold Hits 140m Deeper at Happy Valley | Advance Metals (ASX: AVM)

    Advance Metals (ASX: AVM) has intersected visible gold in deep drilling at its Happy Valley Deposit, part of the Myrtleford Project in Victoria’s renowned Goldfields — extending mineralisation 140 metres below previous drilling and signalling major growth potential.🪙 Key Highlights:• Visible gold observed from 465m downhole in diamond hole AMD014A — the deepest intersection yet.• The high-grade gold system may now extend over 500m vertically, and remains open in all directions.• Logging and assays underway, with results expected late November to early December 2025.• Exploration fully funded following a recent $13 million placement to global institutional investors.Managing Director Adam McKinnon calls it “perhaps the single most significant result for the Myrtleford Project to date.”The latest step-down hole demonstrates strong continuity and high-grade tenor at depth — positioning Happy Valley as a potentially regionally significant gold discovery, comparable to early exploration success at Southern Cross Gold’s Sunday Creek.With drilling ongoing and further programs at nearby prospects like Queen of the Hills set to begin soon, Advance Metals is well-funded and ready to unlock the full potential of the Victorian Goldfields.🔗 Learn more at www.advancemetals.com.au#Gold #ASX #Mining #AdvanceMetals #Exploration #HappyValley #VictorianGoldfields #VisibleGold #GoldStocks

  • Diane Garrett & Alex Davidson | Hycroft’s High-Grade Silver Breakthrough - To the Moon?

    Hycroft has just delivered one of the most compelling high-grade silver intercepts seen in years — and it may change the entire investment case.In this episode of Catt Calls, Simon Catt sits down with Diane Garrett, CEO of Hycroft Mining, and Alex Davidson, Vice President of Exploration, to break down the significance of Vortex Hole 70 — over 30 metres of continuous high-grade silver averaging more than 400 g/t, with sections running as high as 700 g/t silver plus gold.Alex explains why this intercept is different: exceptional grade continuity, targeted at a key structural intersection, in an area with almost no historical drilling. The result opens up a new, three-dimensional growth story at Vortex — open to the north, south, and west — and points to scale that was not previously understood.The conversation then steps back to the bigger picture: • Why Vortex and Brimstone may represent multiple high-grade deposits within a giant system • How these discoveries differ fundamentally from Hycroft’s historic low-grade, bulk-tonnage resource • The growing case for selective underground mining as a lower-capex, higher-margin starting point • What this means for cash flow, optionality, and project sequencingDiane Garrett outlines how these discoveries are already reshaping Hycroft’s corporate and technical strategy, including: • Expansion of the 2026 exploration program • Additional drill rigs coming online • Engineering work underway on underground access • A clear path toward a maiden high-grade silver resource, expected early Q1 2026 as part of an updated technical reportThe interview wraps with a fast-paced quickfire Q&A, covering assay timelines, news flow expectations, and why Hycroft’s balance sheet, scale, and timing may be uniquely positioned as silver reasserts itself as a strategic metal.To the moon?According to the team, this may not stop there — it could be a silver solar system#HycroftMining #DianeGarrett #Catt Calls#highgradesilver #silverdiscovery#Vortexsilver #Brimstonesilver#silverintercept#silverexploration#undergroundsilvermining#mininginterview
