Uranium Energy Corporation (UEC) has completed the processing, drying and drumming of uranium concentrates in its central Irigaray processing installation in Wyoming, milestone in the step -by -step project of the Ranch Project of Christensen.
The main stone follows the initial production of Uranus from the Ranch Ranch (ISR) recovery operation in August 2024.
UEC has been working since the beginning of 2023 to move the facility from care and maintenance after increasing the price of uranium. According to the US Energy Information Administration, Irigaray last produced Uranus in 2018.
In January 2024, the Board of Directors of UEC approved the restart of Ranch Christensn, as a restored uranium would be processed in Irigaray.
Uranus concentrates produced in Irigaray will be transported to the converged conversion facility in Metropolis, Illinois. Converdyn is a partnership between US multinational companies common atomics and Honeywell, which provides conversion to Uranus Hexafluoride and related services.
ISR-known as Situ Leach or ISL-e method used to restore minerals by dissolving them by the oreer to the ground and pumping the resulting solution on the surface where the minerals can be restored to a processing company.
UEC has ISR operations “Hub and Spoke” in southern Texas and Wyoming, where the Central Processing Plant forms a “hub” and several ISR Uranus designs “spokes”.
UEC President and CEO Amir Adenani said UEC was six months in his gradual taking on operations at Ranch Christ.
Adnani said: “With energy security, it continues as a national priority and the newly created National Energy Domination Board, recognizing Uranus as an” incredible national asset “, this milestone is a meaningful step in strengthening the US nuclear supply chain.
“We expect the limited availability of the US Origin Uranium to stimulate premium prices, creating a significant competitive advantage for UEC as the largest and fastest growing uranium company in the country.”
