Interview with Dev Randhawa, Chairman & CEO of F3 Uranium (TSX-V: FUU)

In this video, we catch up with Dev Randhawa, the Chairman & CEO of F3 Uranium (FUU), to discuss their recent capital raise and their strategy going forward. Despite a tough market, F3 Uranium managed to raise at least $10 million to continue drilling and expand their discovery hole, which has two very significant holes with high-grade uranium. Dev explains the company's fundamentals and how their aligned insiders and two great technical teams have made it relatively easy to raise capital, despite the poor overall market conditions.

Dev also talks about their strategy of keeping drilling, finding scale and grade, and offloading the project if the right price comes along. Investors are buying into the next world-class deposit, and F3 Uranium aims to find out if there are more sheer zones or going further south by following the uranium where they get big numbers. This catch-up provides valuable insights into the current market conditions, F3 Uranium's strategy, and the exciting opportunities the company presents for investors looking for the next big discovery.

Interview with Nick Appleyard, President & CEO of TriStar Gold (TSX-V: TSG)

TriStar Gold Inc. is a minerals exploration company trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSX-V) under the symbol TSG.

Wayne Heili, CEO & MD, Peninsula Energy and Bruce Lang, CEO, GTi Energy are both uranium junior mining companies with assets in Wyoming, USA.

Given the increased awareness of jurisdictional risk in mining and the energy resurgence and transition, we decide to look at Wyoming and its contribution to the nuclear and uranium narrative. Is it a mining-friendly state and can uranium ISR companies thrive there? These two CEOs lay out the story for Wyoming. Do you agree with what they have to say on the matter? 

Peninsula Energy looks to get in production (again) in mid 2023. What are the barriers they faced? And what is the upside to timing the market for this year. They have the benefit of having term contracts from utilities. GTI Energy is an earlier stage uranium explorer but having bought $15M of existing drill data they are hoping to be able to fast track their project.
