Myriad Uranium Corp., a uranium development company listed on the CSE, OTCQB, and Frankfurt Stock Exchange, has appointed Eric Miller as Strategic Advisor, effective immediately. Miller will focus on advancing Myriad’s flagship Copper Mountain uranium project in Wyoming by leveraging federal and state policy tools designed to accelerate domestic uranium supply in the United States.
Miller is the founder and president of Rideau Potomac Strategy Group and a Senior Advisor on Trade and Geopolitics at the Boston Consulting Group, with extensive experience assisting critical minerals companies advance their interests in Washington, D.C., key U.S. states, and internationally. His network spans the agencies and congressional offices responsible for implementing Defense Production Act Title III authorities, Department of Energy programs, and permitting reform.
The appointment comes at a pivotal moment in U.S. uranium policy. The United States operates the world’s largest fleet of nuclear reactors yet imports a high proportion of its uranium requirements from Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, a concentration of supply identified at the highest levels of government as a national security vulnerability. Uranium has been formally designated a critical mineral by the U.S. federal government, and the current administration has invoked the Defense Production Act to stimulate domestic production through direct financial assistance including grants, loans, and purchase commitments. The designation also opens the door to expedited permitting, priority federal procurement consideration, and eligibility for Department of Energy funding programs.
Myriad’s Copper Mountain project is located in Wyoming, the largest uranium-producing state in the United States, and holds a 75% interest in the project, with a definitive agreement in place to acquire the remaining 25% from Rush Rare Metals Corp. The district saw extensive exploration and development by Union Pacific in the late 1970s, with an estimated C$117 million invested in 2024 dollars prior to the uranium market downturn in 1980.
