Back in 2017, subscribers of Private Placement Intel financed URZ Energy, a uranium developer, at $0.15 while it was still private, anticipating a new uranium bull market. That came with warrants at $0.40.
Once URZ started trading, we financed it again at $0.45. That came with warrants at $0.75.
In 2018, URZ Energy was taken out by Azarga Uranium in an all-share deal that valued it at ~$0.55 per share, putting us up ~265% on our original financing.
It then forward split, making our cost $0.075 per share on the first deal and $0.225 on the second. Plus we had the warrants.
Azarga, led by Blake Steele, controlled the Dewey-Burdock uranium project in South Dakota. It was one of the best undeveloped in-situ recovery projects in North America, but faced local opposition that led to a suspension of the project's NRC license.
Blake was able to get the license back in good standing. And by 2021, Azarga was taken out by EnCore Energy for $0.71 per share, putting us up ~850% just on the original position.
EnCore then consolidated its shares, listed on the Nasdaq, and has become the newest US producer of uranium. Its shares have climbed to nearly C$7.
We exercised our warrants along the way and sold them as the uranium bull market materialized in earnest.
Not only is it the best uranium deal I’ve been involved in… it was one of the best resource deals I’ve done, period.
This week, we’ll be financing the next iteration of Azarga Uranium — a tiny uranium developer about to undergo a significant transformation that is currently only being valued at $2 million.
You need to be a member of Private Placement Intel to participate. The deal will open this week and be full by next Wednesday, August 13th.
What Are Members of Private Placement Intel Saying?
I could walk you through our track record, like I did last month — showing you that seven of the eight private placements we did last year have already doubled or better, with a few up more than 200%.
I could explain the benefits of warrants, and how they give us risk-free leverage to these deals, allowing us to buy stock at lower prices after the price goes up.
But let me instead relay some notes we got from active members this month based on the success we’ve been having with investing in private placements.
Here’s an excerpt of what happy subscriber Doug S. from Calgary had to say:
I don’t usually reply to these kinds of requests as I always put them in the camp of “self-serving marketing promos” where I do the reveal on a story and the business (you guys) get the free benefit. All I get is a slight loss of privacy and possibly big helping of annoyance. So just to let you know that the simple act of my responding to your email means this is a big deal.
As background for me, I am one of those retired Oil & Gas execs here in Calgary and have worked hard to save, invest and squirrel away a few bucks over the years. Now in retirement and in the back end of our 50’s, I spent a few years developing my plan to “maintain” wealth through retirement. Maintain to me, means earn as much as my wife and I spend each year given we both no longer have traditional “jobs”. So we continue to invest and purchase some vacation rental property for our cash flow. We are 4 years in, travel 5 to 6 times a year, and for the last 2 Calgary Stampedes have held big family reunion events bringing in my family last year and my wife’s family this past Stampede. Dare I say it, but we have found our happy. The “Maintaining” had been working well. I read a lot, about all things, but this includes investing newsletters and blogs, etc.
I came across Gerardo’s Junior Resource Monthly in early / mid2023. Started reading and then got the exposure to Nick’s stuff and got hooked on the weekly Bizarro World. I liked your message and the non-pushy but intelligent delivery. Followed a few recommendations and made some early wins. Based on that, I took the plunge in Jan 2024 and joined Private Placement Intel service.
My wife thought I was nuts…
We both laugh now. Since Jan 2024 I have participated in 12 placements. Returns for 6 are above 100%, 3 of which are above 200%, one is above 350. Only 1 is slightly negative (minus 15%) and that one is new and has not yet released any news. My average is just above 112%.
Anyway, my point is that this has been an excellent service and I honestly see only bigger and bigger upside. So much so, that our Maintain fiscal strategy has changed to “Grow” our wealth. And I truly believe that our approach now has less risk than our previous Maintain strategy. I can’t understand why more folks don’t follow your recommendations. Yes, I know that my timing into the resource super cycle was a bit of dumb luck, but your team brings the knowledge of a large network of experts as well as your own. Selfishly, my only negative on bringing others in is that it will eventually make your subscribers too large to take on future small scale private placements. How’s that for a first world problem, I don’t want you guys to get too successful!!! (Kidding, kind of, maybe….).
As for what got me to first follow, Gerardo’s message of “you can buy us, or buy something else — it’s all good, we just are working for ourselves, our subscribers and our family members…” is golden.
What keeps me is your actual superior results…
Thank you for what you do.
A Happy Subscriber.

We’re opening up discount membership for the upcoming uranium deal. You can pay $2,025 for the first year, less than half the retail rate of $4,999.
And you don’t have to worry about us getting too successful.
There is a strict membership limit specifically because of the small size of the financings. We only have room for 250 members to participate in these deals alongside us. And many of these spots are already taken by longtime members who’ve been enjoying the success of these private placements for years.
We do deals alongside Rick Rule, like the copper deal we did last month. And we count well-known industry names like Doug Casey, Bob Bishop, and Jeff Phillips among our active Private Placement Intel members.
To invest with this group, starting with the uranium deal outlined above, click here.
If you have any questions, you can call Jimmy Mengel in Customer Experience at 844-334-4700.
As Doug pointed out in his testimonial above, we’re just working for ourselves, our families, and our subscribers.
You can follow us. Or you can follow someone else.
Call it like you see it,
