On Wednesdays through September from 1-3 pm, the Moab Museum will host miners, geologists, and mill workers in past and present uranium projects to answer questions and tell stories from the field. Guests will have the opportunity to explore the gallery while gaining insights on the modern uranium industry from those who know it most intimately. Free with admission or Museum membership!
We’re excited to host Liam Posovich at the Museum on September 10 from 1:00pm-3:00pm.
About Posovich: “My name is Liam Posovich, and I’m an exploration geologist focused on the uranium potential of the Colorado Plateau. My work combines modern geospatial technology with historical records, along with a deep knowledge of geologic systems, to reevaluate past mining areas for future development. I use GIS, drones, and vintage maps to locate old drilling and mining sites and better understand how uranium deposits formed within the ancient river systems represented by the rock formations surrounding the Moab area. I earned my degree with honors at Colorado Mesa University, where my research on fluvial architecture directly connects to the uranium-bearing Salt Wash Member of the Morrison Formation. Today, my role is focused on bridging the gap between legacy data and boots-on-the-ground fieldwork in some of the most historic uranium districts in the U.S.”
About Urano: Urano Energy is a uranium exploration company with 22 properties and 3 state leases across Utah and Colorado, covering nearly 25,000 acres. Fourteen of these sites have a history of uranium production, and together they span some of the most important uranium districts of the Colorado Plateau, including the Uravan, La Sal, Lisbon Valley, and San Rafael River areas. Many of the properties host old mine workings, drill data, and historical resource estimates, giving Urano a strong foundation to build on for future exploration and production.
The company’s approach blends modern exploration tools with the wealth of legacy data left behind by past operators like Atlas and Cotter Corporations. Our work so far is focused on digitizing historical maps, confirming past drilling, and preparing technical reports to update resources under current reporting standards. As Urano and the US uranium market continue to grow, this current work will be followed by drill programs at properties with the highest potential. With road access, year-round field conditions, and supportive local infrastructure, Urano is well-positioned to expand its uranium inventory in a region that has already produced tens of millions of pounds of ore for the nuclear energy market.
We look forward to seeing you there!
