After spending a decade on the backburner, uranium is making an epic comeback.
In the past three years, uranium prices have skyrocketed, soaring 2.4X and leaping over 49% since the dawn of 2023, hitting a 12-year high.1

And this is just the beginning.
Nations are hungry for uranium, ramping up nuclear capacities to hit those zero-carbon sweet spots.
Even the biggest nuclear skeptics (Finland) have done a full 180, igniting a domino effect with Spain, Belgium, Sweden, and more jumping on the nuclear bandwagon.2
The uranium thirst from nuclear reactors is predicted to balloon by 28% by 2030 and nearly double by 2040.3
But here’s the twist: supply can’t keep up.
A decade-long bear market left uranium mining in the dust, slashing global production by 25% from 2016 to 2020.4
And with the world giving Russia the cold shoulder post-Ukraine invasion, the hunt is on for stable uranium sources. Enter Canada’s Cameco Corporation (Market Cap: $17.72B), the uranium titan, clinching a 12-year supply deal with Ukraine in early 2023.5
This deal is a goldmine for Canada’s Athabasca Basin players, especially the junior miners like Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) – a company brimming with untapped potential.
Strategic stockpiling is squeezing supplies even tighter with Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (TSX: U.UN) (OTC: SRUUF) on a uranium shopping spree, doubling their holdings in two years with no stopping in sight.6
And the cherry on top? Soaring natural gas prices make nuclear power even sexier.
With the world’s uranium heavyweights, Cameco and Kazatomprom, sold out till 2027 and production cuts announced, the stage is set for a uranium bonanza.7,8
In this uranium gold rush, miners stand to benefit, especially those with room to grow like Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU).

- Uranium Energy Corp: up 51%
- NexGen Energy: up 41%
- Denison Mines: up 36%
- IsoEnergy: up 29%
-
It makes you wonder what Cosa Resources’ (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) stock will do when the company releases new plans and results and hits the ground running on drilling in early 2024.
Unlocking the Athabasca Basin’s Next Discovery Chapter
In the heart of the Athabasca Basin, Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) is charting a course through under-explored territories with a clear vision.
The map below is not just a representation of land; it’s a blueprint of potential, illustrating Cosa Resources’ 100% ownership of nine uranium exploration properties spanning over 165,000 hectares.
The map also shows the pattern of the region’s high-grade uranium discoveries: the long northeast-trending uranium corridors along the eastern side of the basin.
The eastern side contains all the current producing mines, including Cigar Lake and MacArthur River, and a tremendous amount of infrastructure and access. But it’s also extensively explored, making it less likely for anyone to discover the next elephant-sized deposit.
That’s why Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) strategically acquired projects in the next logical place to go: the Cable Bay Shear Zone (as seen in the map below).
Here lies the potential of discovery, where only a few exploratory drills have ever touched down, and where early signs of uranium hint at a fertile ground ripe for a significant find.
By securing a commanding presence along 60 km of the Cable Bay Shear Zone, Cosa Resources is positioned just a stone’s throw from the world-famous McArthur River mine.
Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) completed airborne geophysics (MobileMT) on their Ursa Project in Q3 2023.
The aerial survey at the Ursa project uncovered over 100 kilometers of areas highly likely to contain uranium deposits. This part of the Athabasca Basin was previously unexplored and undrilled, making the find particularly significant.
The use of advanced survey technology has allowed Cosa to identify potential uranium-rich zones with unprecedented precision. The results are so promising that the company is planning detailed ground studies and drilling in 2024 to further explore these exciting findings at Ursa.
At the same time, Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) has released encouraging results and is advancing its Orion Project, which they believe to be a continuation of the Larocque trend extending down from the northeast where it hosts the Hurricane deposit (as seen in the map below).
Orion is 45 km (28 miles) from McArthur River and 29 km (18 miles) from Cigar Lake uranium mine. It also covers an interpreted extension of the uranium corridor where IsoEnergy discovered their high-grade Hurricane Deposit in 2018 (Indicated Mineral Resources of 48.61M lbs uranium).28
As with the Ursa Project, Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) completed airborne geophysics (MobileMT) on Orion in Q3 2023, revealing more than 10 km of potential uranium deposit areas. Like Ursa, these zones at Orion are untapped, with no prior drilling or exploration conducted.
Cosa is now preparing for an exciting phase of ground-level exploration and drilling in 2024 to confirm and expand upon these tantalizing prospects at Orion.
Cosa Resources’ Treasure Trove of Exploration Gems
The visionary team at Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU), inspired by the game-changing Hurricane discovery at IsoEnergy, know that true value often lies hidden, waiting to be unearthed across a spectrum of prospects.
It’s with this insight that they curate an impressive portfolio of exploration projects, each selected with the foresight to secure surrounding land, ensuring they hold the keys to potential underground fortunes.
In addition to their Eclipse and Polaris projects, the company’s other 100% owned projects include:
-
-
- Astro: Continues many of the trends associated with Ursa.
- Helios: Captures an extremely under-explored portion of the Grease River Shear Zone along the northern rim of the Athabasca Basin
- Orbit: Represents a known graphitic trend with structure and alteration that are key components of a uranium deposit, and were not followed up along strike.
- Charcoal & Castor: Represent prominent magnetic low anomalies that extend northeast from, or parallel to, those that host the Eagle Point Mine.
-
With many distinct projects under their belt, Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) isn’t just on the hunt for the next big uranium discovery in the Athabasca Basin—they’re on the cusp of a new era of discovery.
Cutting-Edge Tech & Targeted Exploration Plans
Cosa Resources (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) is turning to modern technology to overcome past limitations. Previous drilling efforts on the Ursa property fell short due to outdated methods, with many drills missing their conductive marks.
Today, the company is harnessing the power of advanced MobileMT electromagnetic (EM) technology to illuminate the depths of Ursa and Orion projects, revealing deeper geological anomalies that hint at promising uranium deposits. Equally as exciting is the fact that virtually none of the existing drilling is within several kilometers of Cosa’s newly identified high priority target areas29
Armed with this new EM insight, Cosa is set to refine targets with ground geophysics in the final quarter of 2023, paving the way for a strategic drill campaign in early 2024 at their flagship Ursa Project.
But the innovation doesn’t stop there. Cosa (TSXV:COSA) (OTCQB:COSAF) (FRA:SSKU) has a clear vision for 2024, with plans to deploy MobileMT EM surveys across Helios, Astro, and Orbit, complemented by gravity surveys for Castor and Charcoal.
This approach will sharpen their drill targeting, streamlining their quest to unlock the next significant uranium find.
Solid Financial Foundation and Committed Stakeholders
