NetworkNewsBreaks – Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) to Enter Commercial Rare Earth Business in First Quarter 2021
Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), a leading U.S.-based uranium mining company, today announced its entry into a three-year supply agreement with The Chemours Company (NYSE: CC) to acquire a minimum of 2,500 tons per year of natural monazite sands, one of the highest-grade rare earth element (“REE”) minerals in the world. According to the update, Energy Fuels expects to process this monazite at its 100%-owned White Mesa Mill starting in Q1-2021, recover the contained uranium, and produce a marketable mixed REE carbonate, representing an extremely important step toward re-establishing a fully-integrated U.S. REE supply chain. “With our announcement today, southeast Utah is fast becoming America’s clean energy and critical minerals hub,” said Mark S. Chalmers, president and CEO of Energy Fuels. “Our goal is to domestically produce the raw materials needed for clean energy and advanced technologies, while creating green jobs in an economically challenged part of the country. Currently, the U.S. imports nearly all of our rare earth, uranium and vanadium requirements, despite having ample supplies here in the U.S. Importantly, in the United States we are highly regulated and operate to the highest standards, which means we produce these minerals more responsibly than many of the countries from which we currently import. Our agreement with Chemours may be the beginning of a real success story, not only for Energy Fuels, but also for local communities, Native Americans, conservation groups, the State of Utah, and the U.S. as a whole.”
