How is Boss Energy positioned amid rising Uranium prices?

Key takeaways:

  • Uranium prices zoomed up last week due to Western sanctions on Russia.
  • Boss energy has announced a capital raise to support the development of its Honeymoon Uranium Project in South Australia to first production.
  • BOE aims to develop as Australia’s next uranium producer.

Players from the uranium space are gaining market attention after the news came in the media last week that US president Joe Biden is weighing sanctions against Russia’s nuclear power supplier, Rosatom. In the past few days, uranium prices have been moving up due to the Western sanction on Russia. The news has aggregated the already frayed market, pushing prices even higher.

On a weekly chart during the time frame 31 December 2021 till last week 11 March 2022, there was a significant increase in the uranium price.
