Christopher Ecclestone on the “leaky door” for Russian Uranium

In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Tracy Weslosky interviews Hallgarten & Company’s Principal and Mining Strategist Christopher Ecclestone about the impact of the Ukrainian invasion on the resource sector. In a follow-up to a previous interview, Christopher starts with: “Everyone thought it would be over shortly, and in fact, it’s dragged on — and so that means that the implications have very much changed now.”

With commentary on sanctions, Russia being paid in rubles for oil and gas, Christopher takes on the impact to the global nickel, platinum, and palladium markets. Further discussions on Russia and Kazakhstan being our dominant suppliers of uranium, he provides a compelling argument on how other companies and countries may be a ‘leaky door’ for Russians sidestepping the intended impact of economic sanctions.
