Reviving Copper Mountain: Uranium, AI, and the Domestic Supply Chain with Tom Lamb
Joining us today is Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium, who are breathing new life into the historic Copper Mountain District in Wyoming, a project first drilled by Union Pacific in the 1970s, but now being revived with modern tech, modern exploration thinking, and at a time when the U.S. urgently needs domestic uranium.
We’re going to discuss what that actually means on the ground, how Myriad is modernising decades-old data, and whether AI is truly moving the needle in exploration… or still mostly buzz.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
New chemical assays on historical drill samples are revealing 60% higher grades of uranium than originally detected by the 1970s probe technology, which has the potential to transform the project's volume and grade.
Tom highlights the danger of "analysis paralysis" in junior mining, suggesting that a lack of industry specialisation can sometimes lead to a bolder, more successful entrepreneurial path.
The recent ban on Russian uranium imports and geopolitical factors are creating an urgent push to rebuild a domestic U.S. uranium industry
This is perfectly positioning companies like Myriad Uranium, operating in the mining-friendly state of Wyoming, for massive growth.
BEST MOMENTS
"We have now a chance to do something special here... The high-grade uranium and significant volumes of it probably sits in these near-vertical faults instead of in a band of low-grade uranium kind of near surface."
"The AI is absolutely incredible at inhaling [geochemical data] and delivering insights... you can get them in five or 10 minutes”
“A lot of these projects would take months for a geologist having to go through all the and try and figure out the ratios."
"If you can be in the centre of Wyoming, we're next to a highway, we're next to high tension power, we're next to the railway... and we've got lots and lots of uranium. This is the opportunities for juniors like ours."
