Nexus Uranium Joins South Dakota Mineral Industries Association

Nexus Uranium Corp. has officially joined the South Dakota Mineral Industries Association (SDMIA), marking a strategic step in the company’s uranium exploration efforts in the region. This announcement was made on November 25, 2025, and underscores Nexus’s commitment to becoming a key player in South Dakota’s uranium development sector, where it currently manages two significant uranium projects.

The membership provides Nexus with an opportunity to engage collaboratively with industry partners, local communities, and policymakers. As stated by Jeremy Poirier, Chief Executive Officer of Nexus Uranium, “Joining SDMIA represents our commitment to responsible mineral development in South Dakota and our dedication to collaborative engagement.” This affiliation aims to enhance the company’s involvement in the state’s mining heritage while adhering to best practices in environmental stewardship.

Nexus’s projects in South Dakota, including the Chord and Wolf Canyon sites, position the company as a notable stakeholder in the local uranium market. The timing of this membership is significant as the United States strives to bolster its domestic critical mineral supply chains. Uranium is increasingly recognized for its vital role in enhancing energy security and supporting the transition to clean energy.

Nexus Uranium’s Broader Objectives

Nexus Uranium is a Canadian company dedicated to uranium exploration and development, with an emphasis on contributing to the green energy sector. The firm holds five uranium projects across the United States: Chord and Wolf Canyon in South Dakota; South Pass and Great Divide Basin in Wyoming; and Wray Mesa in Utah. Additionally, Nexus manages the Mann Lake uranium project located in the Athabasca Basin of northern Saskatchewan, Canada.

Following its recent merger with Basin Uranium Corp., Nexus has consolidated a portfolio of advanced-stage uranium assets. This strategic move positions the company to meet the growing demand for nuclear energy and domestic uranium production.

As the landscape for uranium exploration evolves, Nexus Uranium’s involvement in the SDMIA signals its proactive approach to mineral development, highlighting a commitment to responsible practices and community engagement in South Dakota. The company aims to leverage its membership not only to advance its projects but also to contribute positively to the region’s mining industry and environmental standards.
