Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), a leading U.S.-based uranium mining company, has reported its first quarter 2021 results for the period ended March 31, 2021. Highlights of the report include a robust balance sheet, continued readiness to supply uranium into the U.S. Uranium Reserve when established and the ramp-up of rare earth product. In addition, UUUU announced the arrival of the first shipments of natural monazite ore at the company’s White Mesa Mill as well as the execution of a nonbinding memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) for a future supply of natural monazite sands from Hyperion Metals Ltd.’s heavy mineral sand project in Tennessee. Finally, the company also noted that it has asked Carester SAS, a leading global consultant on REE supply chain, to execute a study for the development of a solvent extraction (“SX”) REE separation circuit at the White Mesa Mill. The company also announced it will host a webcast to discuss the Q1 2021 report; the webcast is scheduled for Monday, May 17, 2021, at 4 p.m. ET. Those interested can call into the webcast by dialing (888) 664-6392 domestically. A recorded replay of the webcast will be available on the company website until May 31, 2021. “Without a doubt, Energy Fuels is making major strides toward restoring critical U.S. rare earth supply chains, while also maintaining our position as the leading U.S. uranium producer,” said Energy Fuels president and CEO Mark S. Chalmers in the press release. “On rare earths, our efforts over the past several months culminated in the announcement in March that Energy Fuels and Neo Performance Materials were creating a new, U.S.-European rare earth supply chain. In early March, we began to receive shipments of rare-earth-rich natural monazite sands from Chemours’ Georgia heavy mineral sand operations. In late-March, we began to ramp-up production of an intermediate rare earth product at our White Mesa Mill in Utah using monazite from Chemours. This is expected to be a high-value product ready to be separated and refined into value-added rare earth products at Neo’s plant in Europe. At this time, no other U.S. company is producing a product this far down the rare earth value chain.”
