Encouraging Drill Results from this
Uranium Junior Miner
With all of the volatility in the commodity
space, the uranium sector has seen prices
decline for some time, but it appears the
market might be near a bottom. Obviously, it is
extremely difficult to predict the price of any
commodity, including uranium, but what we
can do is focus on mining stocks that show
strong potential in terms of having good management and ample reserves.
Of the uranium mining stocks out there, an interesting one is Denison Mines
Corp. (NYSE/DNN, TSX/DML). This company explores for and extracts
uranium, mainly in Canada. Unlike some of the smaller mining stocks,
Denison also has some exploration properties in Mongolia and Zambia. The
more exploration properties a firm has, the better the potential upside when
looking at uranium mining stocks.
The company has recently released its results from a drilling program on a
property called the Wheeler River. From the results, the company has
concluded that it has expanded several deposits, and the firm is encouraged
by these drill results. The company did not release full estimated mineral
resources at this time, stating that it will release that information later this
year. The company drilled 58 holes on this property, for a total of 27,263
meters.
The key to investing in uranium mining stocks is looking for companies with
large upside potential in expanding their mineral reserves. Obviously, this
uranium property is still in the early exploratory stages, and one must be
cautious when investing any such mining stocks.

This uranium miner has had a volatile year. When looking at mining stocks
in such an early phase, you will encounter extreme volatility. What has been
interesting is that heavy volume has occurred on the days of buying and not
selling. It’s strange to see such violent moves when a good trader could
simply accumulate the same number of shares for much better price over a
longer period of time. Why these events occur, as denoted by the circled
areas, I’m not sure, but it’s certainly better than if heavy selling were taking
place. One way to look at uranium mining stocks that are in an exploratory
phase, when volume explodes as well as price, is to use that opportunity to
book profits.
The firm will come out with detailed information later this year in terms of
estimates for reserves; at that point, expect a very high level of volatility.
Overall, the area within which the firm is exploring for uranium has shown a
history of containing high levels of the commodity. While no one can predict
ahead of time what level of reserves mining stocks will issue, so far, the drill
results are quite positive. I will surely keep my eye out on this uranium
miner, and look forward to seeing more information regarding this property
in the near future.
