Our CEO, Gavin Chamberlain just shared his first email with $BMN shareholders. If you are a shareholder & do not receive these emails from our CEO & Executive Chairman @Brandon_Munro, send us a DM to be added ✉️ ⚛️ #Uranium $BNNLF
For members of Engineers Australia.⚠️
You should be outraged, regardless of your views about #NuclearPower or the energy debate.😡
I encourage you to write to your organisation to call out this unacceptable and shameful act.
Please fwd to your engineer friends.🙏
Robert Parker @NukeForClimate is a highly respected authority on energy systems, including nuclear, and should have his voice heard.
Breaking!📰🎆 Senate approves US ban on imports of Russian #Uranium👨⚖️📜🗳️☑️ sending bill to White House for President Biden to sign into law;🇷🇺⚛️⛏️🚢⛔🇺🇲 Retaliation by #Russia feared!😟 🤠🐂 #Nuclear#EnergySecurity#USA#HereWeGo 🌊🏄 https://t.co/l2P8kuMJ7E via @bpolitics
With this agreement, @GalanLithium will be able to supply LiCl concentrate to the world, the same way Australian spodumene producers do.
Focus on the upstream!!!

Bowen just another cranky activist
Sean Burke Politicom 31st August 2023
Federal Energy Minister Chris Bowen has intentionally misled Australians on alternate clean power sources in an effort to justify his pet wind and solar projects. With increasing numbers of Western nations destroying their energy independence by chasing unreliable and ideologically-driven green projects, Mr Bowen has again ruled out a nuclear path for Australia.
In his latest attack on small modular reactors, the minister – described as Australia’s “dumbest man in politics” – presented five (already debunked) reasons why uranium-based generation should be ignored.
All five of Mr Bowen’s points, however, have been ridiculed by Canada’s Energy Minister for Ontario Mr Todd Smith, who said his State had been nuclear powered for more than 50 years.
BANNED
Mr Bowen this month claimed that nuclear – banned in Australia since 1998 – was more expensive, unproven, inflexible, created significant waste and had an unsuitable implementation timeframe.
His Canadian counterpart, meanwhile, told 2GB’s Ben Fordham today that this was not the experience of Ontario, which is currently installing its first small modular reactor to be commissioned by 2030.
“Our federal government has come around on nuclear as being the only pathway to net-zero,” Mr Smith said.
“This is because of the reliability factor and because of the amount of energy that can be produced from a very, very small footprint.
“You’re talking about a very small chunk of land that produces enormous amounts of megawatts.
“We’re seeing a big sea change not just in Canada but from around the world.”
Sixty per cent of Ontario’s energy generation currently comes from nuclear at a cost of between 10 to 11 cents per kWh. This compares to Australia’s average household electricity cost of 36 cents per kWh, according to https://t.co/Yf24x5N2PR.
“Our previous Left-wing government was paying exorbitant subsidies to renewable projects such as wind and solar, which was driving up electricity prices and which was also unreliable and unsustainable,” Mr Smith said.
COMPETITIVE
“Nuclear power is base load power, it’s there 24/7, it’s power you can count on at a very competitive rate and it employs about 76,000 workers.”
He said Canada disagreed that small modular reactors were “unproven”, as Mr Bowen described them.
“We have modular technology that we have chosen in Ontario that is based on the ‘boiling water reactor’, which is a proven technology that we’ve had for 50 to 60 years,” Mr Smith said.
“It’s just a smaller, scaled down version of what we’ve been operating in North America for a long, long time.
“One of the things we like about the small modular reactor – like the one we’re building right now – is that not only is it going to be smaller and more flexible, meaning that you can locate it at phased-out coal generators, but it is a proven safe technology.”
Mr Smith said waste from nuclear was negligible.
WASTE
“The spent fuel that has come from our existing facilities over 50 years fits on the size of a football field – and small modular reactors will produce even less,” he said.
“If you were to measure per person in our country, the amount of waste that one person would consume over their lifetime would be equivalent to a Coke can.”
He said Canada had, for a time, mistakenly bought into wind and solar “in big way”, resulting in unimaginable economic problems.
“You have to have energy you can rely on,” Mr Smith said.
“You can’t see economic development if you don’t have reliable power in your jurisdiction.
“Nuclear is a base load, non-emitting power source that you can count on – and we’ve had enormous economic development here in Ontario of late.”
