Purecore Metals Inc. (CSE: PURE) (FSE: J8Y) (OTCQB: PPUR) has published an industry report, Uranium and the AI Power Boom, examining global uranium supply and demand as electricity consumption from artificial intelligence and data center infrastructure rises. The report, disseminated on behalf of Purecore Metals Inc., draws on research from the International Energy Agency, the International Atomic Energy Agency and other industry sources to frame the intersection of nuclear energy expansion and long-term electricity demand.
The report highlights projections that data center electricity consumption could reach 950 terawatt-hours annually by 2030, while global nuclear generating capacity could exceed 1,000 gigawatts by 2050 under a high-growth scenario. It also examines industry projections of cumulative uranium supply deficits ranging from approximately 700 million to 1.7 billion pounds of U3O8 through 2040, alongside uranium pricing trends and nuclear utility contracting requirements. For investors, those figures matter because they suggest that the buildout of AI infrastructure may not be matched by adequate uranium supply, potentially supporting higher prices and increased exploration activity.
Purecore (CSE: PURE) (FSE: J8Y) (OTCQB: PPUR) outlines its own uranium and critical minerals exploration strategy in the report, including its Yurchison Uranium Property in northern Saskatchewan and Bankier Property in British Columbia. The Yurchison property comprises 22 mineral claims covering approximately 35,029 hectares, with Purecore holding an option to earn up to a 100% interest under an agreement with Skyharbour Resources Ltd. The company said it is conducting historical data compilation and technical reviews to identify future exploration targets.
President and CEO Peter Berdusco said the report is intended to help investors understand the relationship between nuclear energy expansion, uranium supply and long-term electricity demand as Purecore continues building its critical minerals portfolio.

The announcement arrives as utilities and technology companies increasingly evaluate nuclear power as a stable, low-carbon source of electricity for energy-intensive computing. If the report's projections prove accurate, the uranium market could face sustained pressure to deliver new supply, a dynamic that would affect miners, utilities and investors across the energy sector.
