The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

And we've been doing it for a long time in Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and with newer techniques in Wyoming and in Texas.

#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

And so there's a bunch of places in the US that have uranium that we can go mine either through conventional techniques, which is classic mining underground or open pit, or the new modern technology, which is in situ recovery ISR, which essentially people are just, they drill wells.

They flow a fluid through the underground and then pull it back up.

And that fluid manages to dissolve and extract the uranium.

And so that's a newer technique that looks more like fracking or something to get uranium.

#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

So we do mining in the US.

Our allies do a lot of mining.

Canada does mining.

They have great ore deposits.

So does Australia.

So between us and our allies, there's plenty of mining and plenty right here in the US.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

Yeah, I think we could.

Our focus is, let's get the US back to completely meeting its own needs.

But when you think about other countries that want nuclear, and they say, hey, why can't we have nuclear energy?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

Why can't we have nuclear fuel?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

I think the US should, at some point, be the provider of that fuel.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

especially if we can do it really cheaply.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

So think of an argument of a country like Iran that says, we want nuclear energy for commercial use, non-military use.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#211 Scott Nolan - CEO of General Matter on Uranium Enrichment

If we told them, hey, we make a lot of fuel, we do it at a very low cost,

Why don't you buy it from us?
