Uranium Mergers Make Canada A Major Player In The Global Nuclear Power Market

ATHA Energy has acquired two uranium companies as global demand for nuclear power surges.

by 

Big Idea:

ATHA Energy has finalized two all-stock deals to acquire Latitude Uranium and 92 Energy, creating a leading Canadian uranium exploration company and positioning itself as a key player in the global nuclear energy market.

Why It Matters:

With control over extensive uranium assets in Canada's prime regions, the Athabasca and Thelon basins, ATHA Energy is set to capitalize on worldwide demand for nuclear power. Despite Canada no longer being the top exporter for uranium, ATHA Energy could revitalize the country’s position in the market.

Key Details:

  • ATHA now controls over 6.1 million acres across key uranium regions, with a market valuation of C$267 million and C$55 million in cash.
  • ATHA's expansive holdings in Athabasca and Thelon merge with Latitude's high-grade deposits in Nunavut and Labrador, and 92 Energy's Athabasca-based Gemini discovery.
“We are thrilled for ATHA to have such an incredible opportunity to create Canada’s premier exploration company during a period where the world’s increasing adoption of nuclear energy is calling for new supplies of uranium,” said Troy Boisjoli, ATHA Chief Executive.

What's Next:

ATHA Energy is set to accelerate exploration and development activities in 2024. The focus will likely be on the Gemini discovery and other high-potential sites within its extensive portfolio.
