Mines uranium via in-situ recovery in Texas and Wyoming, and holds physical uranium inventory, for nuclear fuel.
Mines uranium via in-situ recovery in Texas and Wyoming, and holds physical uranium inventory, for nuclear fuel.
Earns by selling uranium to nuclear utilities, from its own production and from inventory it has bought, so profit follows the uranium price and its ability to deliver pounds on time. Its sites use in-situ recovery, which dissolves uranium underground and pumps the solution up, a cheaper method than digging. Holding physical stock is unusual for a miner.
Moat: narrow (regulatory licence, scale). Licensed, permitted US in-situ recovery uranium production capacity is scarce and slow to permit.
