Sonoma Biologics is stepping up their efforts to build a global cannabis brand through a variety of disciplines and cost-efficiencies.  Sonoma Biologics is a producer of high quality, low cost, organic-equivalent cannabis. As part of their standard operating measures, they use organic products for both fertilization and pest management.  Sonoma Biologics produces product for flower, organic extracts for recreational and medicinal cannabis applications, ingestible, creams and lotions. Sonoma Biologics is committed to adhering to all the stringent guidelines of both the Appellation of Origin and the OCal programs, which are designed to set California cannabis apart from that of other growth areas. The Appellation of Origin program gives credence to the place where a product is grown. In the case of Sonoma Biologic’s cannabis, growing in Sonoma County will allow consumers the confidence of knowing our plants thrive in the same soil and environmental conditions as that of the world-famous wines of Sonoma County. Sonoma County has long been known as an agricultural haven for the growth of a variety of products such as apples, grapes, apricots, Meyer lemons, figs, olives and more. And, due to the ideal growing conditions for grapes, the County enjoys a worldwide reputation for numerous varietals including Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Zinfandel to name a few. The soil at Sonoma Biologics main cultivation farm is Gold Ridge fine sandy loam.  This local soil is known for its production of ultra-premium Pinot Noir grapes and wines.  Some of the most coveted Pinot Noirs produced in California are neighbors.  The company believes that this soil, as well as the local microclimate, are major factors that contribute to the high quality of this appellation.  “Participating in the CDFA, the California Department of Food and Agriculture, will ensure that customers who see the Sonoma designation on a product label, will instantly understand they are getting the highest quality, sun grown, natural, pure product “says Paul Caracciolo, CEO of Sonoma Biologics. “For 4 years running, our cultivated product has passed the stringent state of CA laboratory quality control tests for purity”. In MJBizDaily, Rex Stults, vice president of the Napa Valley Vintners Association, talks about the benefits of associating the California wine regions as having the same growing benefits for cannabis. “If you develop a reputation for having a delicious, high-quality product, then the name of the region becomes synonymous with the product,” Stults said. “The product has to be good consistently year after year.” Another parallel from wine that the cannabis industry might consider – farm tours to taste the product and see where its grown (https://ibn.fm/A7094). Sonoma Biologics is also prepping to certify with the State of California’s comparable-to-organic cannabis standards. The OCal Program will ensure that cannabis products bearing the OCal seal have been certified to consistent, uniform standards comparable to the National Organic Program. By participating in these programs, consumers and manufacturers will be assured of the quality of product being produced. These programs will also allow Sonoma Biologics to claim “Sonoma” place of origin for marketing and branding purposes, thus building on the global awareness of Sonoma County that has been paved by the grape/wine industry.

• Plant-based foods gain popularity as shoppers focus more on health, well-being during COVID
• U.S. online grocery sales rose from $1.2 billion in August 2019 to $7.2 billion in June 2020
• More than 5,000 plant-based products are available through PlantX’s online grocery store, with more being added daily

PlantX Life (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF) has become the digital face for the plant-based community, providing a one-stop-shop for everything plant based. There was a time when being vegan or vegetarian made it difficult to find quality items — that time has passed, thanks in large part to companies such as PlantX. Even before COVID-19, a growing numbers of consumers were opting for plant-based lifestyles. However, during the global pandemic, the market is exploding, as growing numbers of shoppers focus on healthier cooking, eating and living (https://ibn.fm/b4hW9). Experts predict that, even as the pandemic eases, the trend toward health and well-being will continue, along with a shift in consumer tastes and spending habits. In the past the plant-based consumer was primarily a vegan and vegetarian shopper, but today’s grocery space is seeing a trend toward flexitarians. This is a group of people who seek to add additional plant-based products to their diet for a variety of reasons including taste, environment, health, animal welfare, etc. They have not necessarily given up meat altogether but are transitioning to a more plant-forward plate. Another change seen during the pandemic was the uptick in online grocery shopping. At the beginning of the pandemic, 81% of consumers had never purchased groceries online. That number flipped in 2020, and now 79% of consumers have ordered their groceries online. In the United States, online grocery sales rose from $1.2 billion in August 2019 to $7.2 billion in June 2020 (https://ibn.fm/GIdoc). That increase is certainly being reflected in the numbers reported by PlantX; the company saw a 298% increase in revenue from Q2 to Q3 2020 (https://ibn.fm/P3mKi), positioning the trend-setting company as one of the fastest-growing leaders in the plant-based industry. At least part of that growth likely stems from the company’s vast lineup of grocery offerings. More than 10,000 plant-based products are listed in the online store, with more being added daily (https://ibn.fm/rfplx). The company offers shopping sites designed for both U.S. and Canadian consumers. The PlantX e-commerce shopping experience is designed for ease of use and offers high-quality, plant-based products that cover all grocery needs; consumers can find frozen, refrigerated and pantry items from more than 350 different brands, including some of the most popular such as Beyond Meat, Earth Balance, Silk and more. The online grocery shopping experience includes diverse product categories such as frozen fruits, desserts, breads and entrees; condiments and dressings, cereal, soups and snacks; and beverages, dairy and egg alternatives, and dips. Shoppers can even find personal care, vitamins and pet food items. And most important: consumers can rest easy knowing that every product offered is plant based, wholesome, nutritious and fresh. Plant-based products have proven to be a key component in the growth of food companies and retailers, and PlantX is capitalizing on the impressive market growth. In the near future, the company plans to add its own PlantX-branded goods to the site and is even eyeing expansion into international distribution. While many industries slowed during the pandemic, the plant-based food industry — and PlantX — experienced record-breaking growth, growth that appears likely to continue as consumers remain committed to healthier lifestyle choices.

• BRSF announced it has FDA clearance for next-gen NeuroCap
• The newest version of the NeuroCap has added velcro strips, expanded size range to include pediatrics
• New device can stay on the patient’s head for up to four hours

Brain Scientific (OTCQB: BRSF), a commercial-stage healthcare company, announced it has received clearance from the FDA for its next-generation NeuroCap(TM) (https://ibn.fm/RYmMH). This device is an advanced electroencephalogram (“EEG”) electrode array used in routine clinical and research settings. Like the previous version, the newest version of the NeuroCap will help improve patient access to neurological care through its simplicity, cost efficiency and one-time use. However, the next-gen version comes with a few upgrades.

“We are constantly working on new products for the EEG market,” stated Irina Nazarova, marketing director at Brain Scientific. “In the new version of NeuroCap, we added velcro strips for better adhesion. We also expanded the size range by adding an extra-small size. And now this device is designed for broader use, in addition to intensive care units and ERs.”

The next generation of the NeuroCap includes a pediatric version. The newer version only takes five minutes to apply and can stay on a patient’s head for up to four hours. The lengthy task of head measurement and electrode placement is eliminated with pre-gelled, fixed electrode locations. The ease of use and disposability limits contact between EEG technicians and patients, a much-needed change in a post-COVID era.

However, the risk if virus existed even prior to the pandemic. In fact, the largest known outbreak of hepatitis B (“HBV”), with 14,000 cases between 1991 to 1996, was traced back to one EEG lab (https://ibn.fm/msZIz). And that concern is well founded. The cleaning process of bulky EEG equipment is complicated. Wires can get tangled, and cleaning products expire. Microscopic debris, such as blood and pathogens, can be left behind. Good intentions and cleaning policies can only go so far in protecting patients. Improper cleaning methods come with heavy fines, and PR nightmares. The simple, cost-effective solution is to switch to single-use EEG electrode products.

BRSF’s NeuroCap offers additional benefits. Traditional EEGs require application by a skilled professional and can take up to 30 minutes to start the routine EEG test. That amount of time does not include cleaning. The NeuroCap reduces the time needed from 30 minutes to only five, and the device requires no cleaning or sterilization because the product is disposable. It eliminates both the threat and the worry.

While COVID has highlighted the need for more sanitary measures and disposable EEGs, it has also made clear the great divide in neurological care demographically. Brain Scientific is dedicated to making neurological care accessible to all.

• BAND Royalty operates a music NFTs ecosystem, built around offering NFT stakers the opportunity to earn royalties from the work of world-famous musicians
• The company’s performance music catalog features over 50 tracks from some of the biggest names in music, including Beyonce, Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake, Cher, will.i.am, Timbaland, Missy Elliott and Rihanna
• BAND NFTs, hosted on the ethereum blockchain, can be staked for a period of up to five years, offering multiple ways for holders to earn revenue from music royalties
• The company intends to release up to 12,000 unique tokens across four series, with the funds generated being used to expand BAND Royalty’s music royalty library
• BAND Royalty was founded by Barnaby Andersun and Noble Drakoln, experts in the fields of blockchain and music royalty investing and co-hosts of the CryptoTenX Podcast

BAND Royalty (operated by Singapore-based LIBERTY IS PTE LTD) is the leading innovator of music-focused NFTs. BAND is an entertainment technology-driven firm focused on the distribution of non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”) that allow fans to earn royalties from top songs and artists worldwide. BAND Royalty lets fans take their enjoyment of music to the next level by offering blockchain-secured BAND NFTs that enable holders to earn crypto from some of the world’s most popular songs. This unique opportunity allows individuals to share in income streams each time a song in the BAND Royalty music catalog is performed. BAND’s royalty pools leverage a performance music catalog featuring tracks from some of the biggest names in music, including Beyonce, Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake, Cher, will.i.am, Timbaland, Missy Elliott and Rihanna. BAND Royalty NFTs BAND NFTs, hosted on the ethereum blockchain, are a special type of NFT that can be staked into any one of three BAND Royalty Music Pools to receive a portion of all royalty streaming income from each track, for each royalty pool category. The BAND ecosystem is supported by multiple types of transactions:

• Trading BAND Royalty NFTs– The first ever issuance of BAND NFTs is being offered to the public. Owners of the BAND NFTs will be able to trade them on the largest NFT marketplace, OpenSea, where the BAND NFTs are being launched on May 5, 2021.
• Music Royalty Pools– These blockchain BAND NFTs have a special DeFi (decentralized finance) utility. Holders of BAND NFTs have the option to stake their tokens for a period of 90 days to five years, with longer stakes receiving proportionally increased amounts of the royalties share. Holders have the option to trade their BAND NFTs or stake them in one of three special music catalog pools that provide access to BAND music royalties. The three types of music pools available for staking are print music, mechanical/public performance and synchronization.

Through staking BAND NFTs, the holder can passively earn crypto from both BAND NFT trades on the OpenSea NFT marketplace and from the BAND music catalog royalty revenue. The company intends to sell three more series of BAND NFTs, with 3,000 NFTs in each series. This strategy would cap the supply of BAND NFTs at a maximum of 12,000 units. As these NFTs are staked to capitalize on royalty opportunities, the supply of BAND NFTs available for trade is expected to be reduced, which the company then expects would increase the value of the BAND NFTs moving forward. Market Opportunity The market for NFTs has exploded in 2021, driven by rising media coverage and mainstream awareness. A well-known example is the first tweet by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, which was sold as an NFT for the equivalent of $2.9 million in March. This growth has been particularly apparent for art-focused NFTs, spearheaded by digital artist Beeple, who sold an NFT series titled “Everyday: The First 5000 Days” for over $69 million at auction during that same month. The performance of the NFT space hasn’t just been confined to those big-ticket items. OpenSea, the largest NFT marketplace, reported monthly sales of over $95 million in February 2021 alone, up from $8 million the previous month. In total, over $400 million in NFT trading had taken place on the ethereum blockchain as of early April, with nearly half taking place from February to March 2021. As Reuters reports, enthusiasts view NFTs as the future of ownership, and they solve the problem of monetization for digital artwork. Importantly, the report notes that “NFTs could also transform music.” The industry seems to agree. In March 2020, Kings of Leon released their latest album, When You See Yourself, in the form of an NFT – a milestone in the history of the entertainment industry. BAND Royalty is uniquely positioned to capitalize on the shifting landscape surrounding digital ownership as it continues to roll out its series of BAND NFTs in the months to come. BAND Royalty Founders The name BAND is the combination of the founders’ initials, Barnaby Andersun and Noble Drakoln. Barnaby Andersun (“BA”) has spent years developing blockchain and cryptocurrency solutions, acting as CEO of BlockAlchemy, a blockchain, ecommerce and digital design consulting firm. Being involved in all aspects of web technologies since their conception in the early nineties has made Mr. Andersun a true pioneer in web development, ecommerce, branding, online marketing and blockchain. A sought-after international speaker, Mr. Andersun has been invited to speak on cryptocurrencies at Harvard and World Economic Forum, Davos, where he coordinated a blockchain digital asset conference, as well as Stanford University. Noble Drakoln (“ND”) has been an avid music royalty investor for decades. He is also CEO of WarePlay Games Inc., a mobile AR/XR game design and development studio. Having started out as a futures and commodities broker at the age of 19 trading the E-mini S&P, gold futures contracts and treasury bond strips, he went on to author the Wiley & Sons-published best-selling books ‘Winning the Trading Game’ and ‘Trade Like a Pro’. Along with being a tech investor, financial author and sought-after speaker, Mr. Drakoln has been a contributing writer to Forbes and Futures Magazine, and a radio and T.V. financial commentator on Bloomberg and Fox Business News.

• The global cannabis market was valued at $24.6 billion in 2020, with 91.1% of this revenue attributed to North America; the market is expected to reach $84 billion by 2028

Red White & Bloom Brands (CSE: RWB) (OTCQX: RWBYF) is a torchbearer blazing a new frontier in American cannabis by adhering to the highest ethical, manufacturing, educational, branding and employment standards available in the industry. Red White & Bloom is a super state operator, leveraging a sizable footprint to dominate the areas in which it operates. CEO Brad Rogers and other management members have seen the struggles of multi-state operators who have spread themselves too thin, which is why Red White & Bloom is intent on dominating each state it enters before expanding further. Although targeting individual states in the United States, the company is headquartered in Toronto, Canada. Red White & Bloom was established after privately held MichiCann Medical Inc. merged with publicly traded Tidal Royalty in 2019. Brands Red White & Bloom has entered strategic brand acquisitions and partnerships aimed at helping the company expand its presence and position as one of the largest players in the United States cannabis market. Red White & Bloom is always diligently searching for brands to acquire that will provide additional value to the company and expand its national footprint. The company’s current brand portfolio includes:

• Platinum Premium Cannabis Products (“PV”): Platinum uses innovative thinking, honesty and responsibility to remain at the forefront of the cannabis industry. PV holds itself and its partners to the highest standards, providing clean and safe CBD and THC products. In the company’s press release dated January 13, 2021, it reported system-wide sales of Platinum-branded products exceeding $2.8 million for the first week of January alone.
• High Times®: In June 2020, the company acquired the licensing rights and branding of High Times dispensaries and High Times cannabis-based CBD and THC products in Michigan, Illinois and Florida. The company also acquired branding of High Times hemp derived CBD products nationally in the United States carrying the Culture® brand.
• Mid-American Growers: Mid-American began as a family operation in 1971 in Granville, Illinois. The original 8-acre greenhouse has expanded to a 3.6-million-square-foot, state-of-the-art technology and science facility under glass. Mid-American’s product offerings include its CBD Icy Relief Salve, CBD Icy Relief Roll-on and CBD Gummies.

Retail Focus Red White & Bloom is working to establish a significant retail presence across multiple jurisdictions. In Michigan, the company is invested in and has the rights to acquire (subject to regulatory approvals) a licensed operator that controls the assets of 18 dispensary locations throughout the state. Red White & Bloom is also pursuing opportunities in Florida aimed at making its proposed retail footprint compelling and attractive to the majority of cannabis consumers within each state. Cultivation Red White & Bloom is focused on standardization and quality, with everything guided by a relentless commitment to the highest standards. The company acquired a 3.6-million-square-foot standardized facility dedicated to helping it achieve premium value for the products it intends to cultivate. As it continues to expand, the company remains committed to the practices that have guided its success in the past, including:

• A top-down approach to cultivation developed under the guidance of PhDs with expertise in growing principles, SOPs and, most importantly, the science behind it all.
• Commitment to exceeding the requirement of the states in which it operates. The company cut its teeth under the world’s first national cannabis purity regime – a regime that most new markets use as a benchmark – so quality is in its DNA.
• Science-driven production methods supported by automated, perpetual, standardized operations that enable craft cannabis-like quality at an industrial scale.

Footprint Assuming completion of the currently proposed investments and acquisitions, Red White & Bloom will be among the cannabis market’s largest companies, joining the ranks of a select few multi-state operators dominating the industry. Red White & Bloom currently has assets (closed and in closing stages) in Michigan, Illinois, Florida, California, Oklahoma and Massachusetts. The company’s strategic acquisition and super state operator model, combined with its commitment to top-quality product and service, position it to become a leading player in the North American cannabis market. When evaluated beside competitors in the cannabis space, Red White & Bloom boasts an extremely attractive valuation. While large cap cannabis firms serving North American markets averaged enterprise-value-to-EBITDA multiples of 14.9x as of December 2020, Red White & Bloom’s enterprise multiple was just 3.4x, as noted in the company’s latest investor deck. In 2020, the cannabis market worldwide was valued at $24.6 billion. This amount is expected to expand at a CAGR of 14.3% from 2021 to 2028, resulting in a market size of $84 billion in 2028 (https://ibn.fm/g85s7). Of the 2020 valuation, the largest revenue share (91.1%) was attributed to North American consumers (https://ibn.fm/HjfoZ). Management Team Brad Rogers is the CEO and Executive Chair of Red White & Bloom. He is a visionary for the future of cannabis and CBD products in the United States market, with a proven track record of building successful and profitable businesses in the rapidly expanding and new economic sector. Mr. Rogers was a part of the team that built one of the first commercially scaled production facilities in the world for medicinal cannabis. He also served as President for one of the leading licensed producers in Canada. Both of his ventures were successful, with a combined market cap of $2 billion. Michael Marchese is the company’s Co-Founder and Marketing Advisor.

• U.S.-based FingerMotion operates primarily in China, delivering mobile tech-related services
• China has a population of nearly 1.5 billion people, nearly a billion of whom are using mobile smartphones and the Internet to transact purchases, send messages, and acquire support services
• FingerMotion is focused on mobile payments and mobile phone recharging, but is also building a strong platform for insurtech services and using its database IP for predictive services that may benefit other industries as well
• FingerMotion is anticipating year-end financial reporting by the close of May, predicting revenues will top $16 million for the year

During the seven decades that have passed since the founding of the People’s Republic of China, the nation has evolved from a country dependent on foreign suppliers for its telecommunications equipment, without any competition for carrier services, to a global powerhouse country with a deregulated and competitive industry (https://ibn.fm/FkBXq) that increasingly operates independently in providing carrier services to its customers (https://ibn.fm/JSaFG). As China’s visionaries continue to capture next-level 5G network buildout patents and contracts, geopolitical tensions surrounding its advances have increased but the nation has pressed forward, and its population of nearly 1.5 billion people is ensuring a ready marketplace for telecommunications advances. Over the past quarter century, with the explosive developments surrounding the Internet and satellite-based communications, China’s mobile phone users have grown from 3.6 million subscribers and its Internet users have grown from 60,000 people (https://ibn.fm/adF0Z) to about 986 million people accessing the Internet from smartphones (https://ibn.fm/sfhv3) out of a total 989 million Internet users (https://ibn.fm/nQCnM). The huge marketplace is proving to be a boon to evolving technological services company FingerMotion (OTCQX: FNGR), which is aiming to acquire more than a billion customers for its mobile payment, mobile phone recharge platform and insurtech services through a step-by-step developmental strategy. FingerMotion transformed from a mobile gaming company launched in 2016 to its current operation. Working with three major platform partners — Alibaba’s (NYSE: BABA) TMALL sites, PinDuoDuo (NYSE: PDD) and JD.com (NASDAQ: JD) — the company is rapidly building a large clientele in Southeast Asia derived from mobile service provider giant China Unicom’s (NYSE: CHU) e-commerce portals. FingerMotion’s service offerings include telecommunication products and services and SMS and MMS services, the company’s core revenue sources, as well as the rich communication services and big-data insights launching this year. The big data product has the potential to provide the foundation for the company’s “strong foray” into insurtech offerings as well as predictive services for other sectors such as health care, financial services and consumer e-commerce applications. In January, we made one of the most significant announcements as a company. We are very proud to announce our partnership with Pacific Life Re-insurance, in essence becoming their data provider,” FingerMotion CEO Martin J. Shen said last month (https://ibn.fm/tmzRq). The company’s Sapientus database overlays the data with AI-driven behavioral analytics to help provide predictive measures about consumer habits. The company expects to file its annual year-end financial report by the end of May, and expects that revenues will top $16 million for the fiscal year that ended Feb. 28, according to Shen (https://ibn.fm/Wlqm9).

DGTL Holdings (TSX.V: DGTL) (OTCQB: DGTHF), a company dedicated to serving growth-stage companies through artificial intelligence (“AI”) that successfully powers a full-service digital media, marketing and advertising software platform, recently announced the signing of a joint venture partnership with data analytics innovator Loop Insights Inc. (TSX.V: MTRX) (OTCQB: RACMF) that will enhance both companies’ potential to drive revenue through key brand account projects — particularly in the live sports and entertainment industry. “Loop Insights’ ability to connect sponsor and brand activations at the transaction level and tie back to their Wallet pass technology provides a valuable data collection and enhancement feature for our clients,” DGTL Holdings CEO Mike Racic stated in a news release announcing the partnership (DGTL Holdings Inc. Secures Service Partnership with Wideout AQA – Digital Media Technologies (https://ibn.fm/1rDR6). “The integrated product offering will now be able to provide brands direct access to their customers through the Loop Wallet Pass and deliver real-time campaign performance metrics associated with their advertising campaigns.” DGTL Holdings is a venture capital asset management company whose mission is to acquire B2B software as a service (SaaS) technology that may prove disruptive to the adtech, martech and social media industries. As the company injects leadership and resources for enterprise companies, it helps them to accelerate their own development. DGTL’s four key services are business strategy advice, capital markets access, merger and acquisition opportunity evaluation, and establishing growth partnerships through Fortune 100 brand relationships. The agreement with Loop Insights provides DGTL a channel for onboarding real-world consumers at the point of sale, whether in the brick and mortar or the virtual marketplace. As consumers join Loop’s platform, they provide both DGTL and Loop with new users and revenue streams in a naturally synergistic partnership that allows businesses to gain complete insights about their customers and their performance. A report by Baystreet noted that DGTL has gained influence as a sports entertainment marketing provider through its wholly owned subsidiary Hashoff, which comprises DGTL’s first SaaS acquisition. Hashoff provides content-as-a-service (CaaS) ad campaigns as TV and newspaper spending declines and social media and social influencer spending rises. Citing reporting by Influencer Marketing Hub and Hootsuite that form part of DGTL’s most recent investor presentation, Baystreet observed that “social media spending increased 20% in 2020 from 2019 to $43 billion and influencer marketing shot up 50% to $9.7 billion. The upside to the nascent adtech/martech market bears out in the fact that global ad spend for 2020 was $572 billion” (https://ibn.fm/rUp91). As a specialty SaaS acquisition company, DGTL cites a massive boom in technology based SPACs (special purpose acquisition companies) in 2020 with SPACs generating more than twice as much the returns of the S&P 500 in 2020 (https://ibn.fm/41HFE). DGTL had $2.4 million in revenue for the six-month reporting period ending Nov. 30, which was before it added six major new global brand accounts. The six month report represented an increase of 79% YOY. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.DGTLInc.com.

• UEC is ideally positioned to be leading supplier of American-mined uranium for domestic utilities, U.S. government
• UEC’s main objective is adding value to shareholders, growing into largest and most profitable uranium company in the United States

Uranium Energy (NYSE American: UEC) CEO Amir Adnani American has noted the company is a uranium pure play, with $110 million cash, equity and strategic U.S.-warehoused inventory holdings.  Recent press releases discuss UEC’s business objectives and highlight recent UEC achievements that are notable for the company’s future growth.

With uranium spot prices below most producers’ cost of production, UEC has established a physical uranium initiative with acquisitions of U.S.-warehoused uranium.  The uranium initiative is fully funded with cash on hand and now includes 2.105 million pounds of U.S.-warehoused uranium at a volume weighted average price of ~$30 per pound with deliveries occurring between March 2021 into December 2022 (https://ibn.fm/zv7ks).

Adnani notes the initiative will support three objectives: 1) bolstering the company’s balance sheet as uranium prices appreciate; 2) providing strategic inventory to support future marketing efforts with utilities that could complement production and accelerate cashflows; and 3) increasing the availability of the company’s Texas and Wyoming production capacity for emerging U.S.-origin-specific opportunities, which may command premium pricing due to scarcity of domestic uranium.

On another front, UEC restarted wellfield development and resource delineation drilling at the Company’s Burke Hollow in-situ recovery (“ISR”) uranium project in South Texas.  Advancing and expanding Burke Hollow’s resources strategically dovetails with UEC’s plans to participate in supplying the U.S. Uranium Reserve (“UR”) as outlined in the Nuclear Fuel Working Group report published by the U.S. Department of Energy. The UR is designed as a 10-year, $1.5 billion program to purchase newly mined U.S.-origin uranium from the existing domestic uranium industry (https://ibn.fm/EW45D).

“UEC is ideally positioned to be the leading supplier of American-mined uranium for the domestic utilities and the U.S. government,” Adnani stated in another article.  “We control the largest resource base of fully permitted ISR projects in Texas and Wyoming of any U.S. based producer, ideally positioned to lead the resurgence in domestic uranium mining. . . . We are investing to build the next generation of low-cost and environmentally friendly uranium projects that will be competitive on a global basis.”

“Our main objective is to continue adding value to our shareholders and grow the company into the largest and most profitable uranium company in the United States,” said Adnani.

Uranium Energy Corp is a U.S.-based uranium mining and exploration company that controls one of the country’s largest historical uranium exploration and development databases. Founded in 2003, UEC is headquartered in Corpus Christi, Texas. Properties acquired by the company are primarily located within the United States, including Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and Wyoming. In addition, the company is aggressively pursuing other key developmental targets. UEC is poised to be a next-generation uranium producer, committed to providing low-cost uranium through environmentally friendly In-Situ Recovery mining for the country’s large electricity-generating nuclear fleet as well as for government programs, such as the U.S. Uranium Reserve.
