Energy Fuels Inc. (UUUU, Financial) is advancing its rare earth production capabilities in response to recent Chinese export restrictions. The company has announced that it possesses the technology required to produce six out of seven crucial rare earth oxides at a commercial scale. These oxides are now under new export controls imposed by China, which could impact global supply chains.
The White Mesa Mill in Utah, operated by Energy Fuels, is already equipped to transform monazite ore concentrates into separated neodymium-praseodymium oxide. Building on this foundation, the company is confident that it can expand its facility to produce additional rare earth oxides, given favorable market conditions and support from the U.S. government.
Furthermore, Energy Fuels views the current U.S. administration's focus on strengthening national security through enhanced domestic supply chains as a significant opportunity. The company's leaders believe that this focus, coupled with strategic trade measures and potential price supports, could lead to a surge in domestic production of critical minerals, thereby reducing dependency on imports.
