At this year’s Uranium Night at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) convention, the event's sponsors secured a $10,000 donation for the charity Haven Family Connections.With the uranium sector having its hottest season in years, there was much to celebrate at the event, which was held on March 4 at the Lucky Clover Irish Pub in Toronto. Early in the year, the uranium spot price broke through the US$100 per pound level for the first time since 2007, rising to a 16 year high of US$106 as demand continued to outpace supply.Although the price has since pulled back to the US$90 level, industry experts still predict a bright future for the energy commodity as countries around the world pursue nuclear power as a strategy for meeting clean energy goals. No surprise then that attendees' faces were glowing at Uranium Night — and so were the drinks. Radiating positive vibes, more than 500 attendees — including industry insiders, investors, brokers and analysts — enjoyed creative cocktails with names such as "Blue Reactor," "Yellowcake" and "Nuclear Negroni."
