written by InvestorNews | June 24, 2022

In this InvestorIntel interview during PDAC 2022, host Byron W King is joined by Energy Fuels Inc.‘s (NYSE American: UUUU | TSX: EFR) Vice President of Marketing and Corporate Development Curtis Moore, and Ur-Energy Inc.‘s (NYSE American: URG | TSX: URE) Chairman, CEO, and President John Cash

In the interview, which can also be viewed in full on the InvestorIntel YouTube channel (click here), John and Curtis discuss world supply of uranium, which comes mostly out of Russia and Kazakhstan, and the capability of US producers to ramp up production quickly in case of increased demand or foreign supply problems. They also talk about the newly proposed, but short on details, $4 billion US uranium support program that John Cash says will “probably be mostly focused on enrichment and conversion, but the feedstock for those two processes would likely come from domestic mines.”

Curtis talks about Energy Fuels’ White Mesa Mill, the only conventional uranium mill left in the United States, which has been has recently been focused on rare earth elements, but he says “we’re actually right now getting ready to switch over to producing uranium” as markets come back and Energy Fuels has sign a couple of long-term contracts with some US utilities.”
