    How beautiful. May I request you think about a podcast chat with the guy who makes Bluey please? I mean how awesome would that be? And given Bluey coins are minted by the Government of Australia mind you? Maybe, maybe you could score a gold coin with Bluey’s signature I mean is that possible? Hmm? A framed coin with a pawprint in the dirt yeah and the blue heeled dog bounded to find a ball to play with

    Would being a gem and helping to trade in the wonderful commodity of Bley coins help? I think they are great and have some myself because I love them as you may appreciate Bluey as well, because Bluey rocks ❤️🎵 Luving in the Land of Iz can take you places with wide open sky, bare feet and a connection to what is treasure. Depths of the night sky offer a heartbeat of truth and what you guys share is awesome and will help people by your groundbreaking inquiring intelligence coupled with true depth of experience and good on you! As for what is of value in comparison to what a family member could have contributed to your ascendency of lifestyle, well? My view is good on you for reflecting on that mattress with a pebble and like tree rings that ripple like a pond and a touch of sparkle let me ponder if the way that time travels and if time is money and cash to burn like a roaring fireplace of commerce then bring it on and bank on Bluey coins to invest in the futures market because even kids know what the value of treasure is yeah?

    Mike has provided great analysis, but nuclear power development and resulting projected increase in uranium demand is difficult to predict in the face of the NRC’s morass of regulation. SMRs and even restarting TMI will take a lot longer than predicted. It’s possible that the greatly increased investment in uranium development in the Athabaskan Basin, and ISL techniques for example, will allow expanded uranium production to be forthcoming in time to meet the projected shortfall. New laser enrichment technologies currently under development will allow DOE’s DUF6 to be re-enriched and create equivalent U3O8 and UF6 supplies at lower cost than new mining and UF6 conversion capacity. (New capacity at existing UF6 plants require the existing facilities to be shutdown for refurbishment

    Comment section filled with uranium a$$holes 4 years late to a trade that's already multibagged. The upside isn't left for the commensurate risk. Far from an unknown situation, It's now a cult trade ala offshore drillers last year: a 'twitter contrarian' favourite.

    California gets a lot of seaweed on their beaches from which oil can be extracted to make diesel or turned to natural gas via gasification. Non recyclable packaging such pizza boxes can be compressed into biomass pellets that can also be turned into natural gas via gasification. Seaweed from which oil has been extracted can also be compressed into biomass pellets that can be turned into biochar to be used in coal plants or the biomass pellets can be used as cattle feed to reduce land use to raise cattle. This would save shipping costs from buying coal from somewhere else. Fossil energy can no longer compete with solar and wind on a cost basis.
