GTR is an exploration company targeting Uranium discoveries in Wyoming, USA & Utah, USA.
Transition away from highly pollutive base-load energy generation using coal & oil to nuclear power, which provides a more Green alternative.
Nuclear power has one of the lowest carbon footprints & highest utility rates of all renewable energy technologies. Uranium being the primary fuel source for Nuclear makes it a critical mineral for a green future.
The uranium projects are in Wyoming
Wyoming is the capital for uranium production in the US accounting for 80% of domestic production. GTR also has an experienced US team with plenty of ISR uranium experience (Doug Beahm & James Buaghman). Wyoming also attracting Nuclear investment from Warren Buffet + Bill Gates.
Uranium price at 9 year highs
Uranium prices have moved from ~US$32/lb at the start of the calendar year to now trade at ~US$46/lb.
Uranium is becoming a critical strategic metal in the US
The shift towards cleaner sources of energy generation as well as Uranium increasingly becoming a strategic mineral will mean the US to need a lot more of it.

Exploration Risk
GTR is currently drilling for Uranium. The drilling program may not return any uranium mineralisation. Failed exploration programs may lead to the assets becoming stranded.
Commodity Risk
Uranium is often shunned by governments because of the issues related to spent-uranium cells needing to be disposed of even though they remain radio-active. A lot of countries have abandoned commitments to Nuclear due to the risks of accidents like Chernobyl & Fukushima. This may slow the adoption of Nuclear power globally.
Funding Risk
GTR is a junior explorer with no revenues to fall back on. This means the company is reliant on fresh funding for future exploration programs. GTR will need to come back to the market and raise more capital from investors to finance major exploration programs.

Market Risk
If the broader market sells off there is a chance that investors shy away from high risk investment opportunities such as early stage junior explorers. During market downturns, investors will generally look to pull capital away from the highest risk investments. GTR is an early stage explorer and may be impacted by these market wide sell offs.
[New 21-Mar-2023]
Our strategy with early stage explorers is to achieve free carry prior to the initial drilling results, which we expect in early 2022. We plan to hold ~50% of the position to see the entire story play out over at least 2 to 3 years.
