Covering themselves in case of delays. The wording has changed to: "commencing in the first year of commercial production". That may say a lot in itself.

🌍GLOBAL #NUCLEAR, #URANIUM AND AUSSIE #ENERGY and #AUSPOL UPDATE! Caption competition! What was I saying on stage at the Nuclear Futures conference in Sydney? Cameco Corporation LT price print up $1 is welcome news; supports the fundamental thesis and avoiding the noise of the spot

Aussies on X should follow Aidan Morrison to be advised of the slow train wreck that is the transition to renewables. All orchestrated by incompetent Australian Labor politicians. Please spread far & wide so this madness can stop. x.com/FootnotesGuy/s…

GLOBAL #NUCLEAR, #URANIUM AND AUSSIE #ENERGY and #AUSPOL UPDATE! A feeling of just treading water; waiting for @potus and Putin’s Alaska meeting. Diggers & Dealers is over for another year; this year the ridiculousness of the WA uranium mining ban was centre stage! Hence,

Australians will need to get used to this under this decrepit socialist Albanese Labor government. skynews.com.au/business/energ…

Serial market miner and struggling #uranium producer $PEN returns. Having just celebrated its 30th year listed on the ASX 🏛 The heart of Australia's financial markets, what could possibly go wrong now!

We now have the official reason that CSIRO won't reveal the modelling behind GenCost. - CSIRO is a "commercial entity" - The modelling in GenCost was done for CSIRO's "exclusive benefit" - Revealing the model would put CSIRO at a "considerable commercial disadvantage" 1/

This was in response to a Freedom of Information request Centre for Independent Studies put in, inspired by this brilliant take on CSIRO's refusal to disclose their model in this year's publication, despite repeated requests. 2/ x.com/jaelubberink_/…

We have another FOI document, the founding proposal for GenCost, which contradicts everything that CSIRO has just written in this refusal. GenCost was a collaboration. Not for CSIRO's exclusive benefit, but the benefit of market actors, governments and regulators. 3/

The lack of transparency in the previous "black box" model GenCost's predecessor was identified as one of the issues this project would correct. 4/

This indefinite collaboration, funded from their 'in-kind resources' (ie not a commercial contract) was meant to: "establish the report as the key source of generation cost information used by electricity stakeholders." Now they want to max-out commercial benefit?? 🤨 5/

And look here... on the critical integration costs of renewables, which is the specific bit of modelling we requested, this wasn't CSIRO's exclusive domain either. AEMO also expected to contribute. 6/

We also have meeting notes to follow up on the proposal: Self-funded, not a commercial activity. Lots of in-kind resources from other government departments and agencies. And an emphasis on transparency and openness. You can't make this up. 7/

And that important modelling method on integrating renewables wasn't just developed by CSIRO. In fact they had an "invitation only technical workshop" to design the method that they now claim the exclusive commercial rights to. 8/

Summing up, it appears that CSIRO has: - used their taxpayer funds - to call a meeting of renewables advocates - to agree on a modelling method on integration costs - to be built using in kind resources from other government agencies - to be used by all stakeholders, including

Wow, what a dog act by the "reputable" & "independent" CSIRO. How can anything the CSIRO state be considered anything but compromised from here on. Please repost so the message gets out John Quakes Jonathan Fisher, The Australian Uranium Guy

Last night, OECD Chief Mathias Cormann told 7:30 that Australia has "natural advantages" for nuclear to contribute to energy security, affordability and our climate objectives. As the rest of the developed world realises, nuclear is key to the energy transition and unlocking

Robert Plant and Jimmy Page performing "Kashmir" with the Egyptian orchestra leaded by Hossam Ramzi (1994) Absolutely amazing, just turn up the volume, and you're off to another galaxy. Pure genius.

Marc Henderson, CEO of Laramide resources, joins the Metals and Miners pod to dive into why nuclear energy right now has been experiencing a global renaissance, why he believes we're in the third great nuclear bull market and this one feels like it could be bigger and better than
