Canamera Energy Metals Corp. (CSE: EMET) (OTCQB: EMETF) has expanded its critical minerals strategy through an option agreement to acquire up to a 90% total interest in the Great Divide Basin uranium project in Wyoming. The rare earth and critical metals exploration company's entry into the U.S. uranium exploration market represents a significant diversification of its mineral portfolio across the Americas.
The Wyoming project comprises 104 unpatented mining claims covering approximately 2,080 acres in the Great Divide Basin region, an area with established uranium production history. According to company CEO Brad Brodeur, "The Great Divide Basin represents an attractive opportunity to expand our critical minerals focus into uranium. With historical drilling, roll-front mineralization and proximity to advanced-stage projects in the district, GDB provides a strong foundation for systematic exploration."
This acquisition adds uranium exploration to Canamera's existing portfolio of district-scale opportunities, which includes the Mantle project in British Columbia, the Garrow rare earth elements project in Northern Ontario, the Schryburt Lake rare earth and niobium project in Ontario, the Iron Hills critical and rare earth project in Colorado, and the Turvolândia and São Sepé rare earth element projects in Brazil. The company's approach targets underexplored regions with strong geological signatures and supportive jurisdictions, utilizing geochemical, geophysical, and geological datasets to advance high-conviction exploration targets.
The strategic move into uranium exploration comes at a time when critical minerals and domestic energy resources are receiving increased attention from both industry and government stakeholders. Wyoming's established uranium production infrastructure and geological potential make the Great Divide Basin project particularly significant for Canamera's expansion strategy. The company's broader portfolio approach across multiple jurisdictions and mineral types positions it to capitalize on growing demand for rare earth elements and critical metals essential for various technologies and energy applications.
