Energy Fuels Announces Closing of Sale of Piñon
Ridge License and Related Assets
Toronto, Ontario and Lakewood, Colorado November 7, 2014
Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE MKT:UUUU; TSX:EFR) (Energy Fuels
or the Company) is pleased to announce that it has completed the
previously announced sale of the Piñon Ridge radioactive materials license and
related assets (the Piñon Ridge Project) to a private investor group led by
Baobab Asset Management LLC and George Glasier, as part of its continuing cost
reduction and asset rationalization efforts, on terms previously disclosed.
Since the Company owns and operates the 2,000 ton per day White Mesa Mill, the
Company no longer needs to construct the 500 ton per day Piñon Ridge Project in
order to meet its current or planned production. Energy Fuels White Mesa Mill,
which is expected to produce 825,000 pounds of U3O8 during 2014, continues to be
the only operating conventional uranium mill in the U.S. today.
Stephen P. Antony, President and CEO of Energy Fuels, stated:
We are pleased to close this transaction as part of our continued asset
rationalization and cost reduction efforts. By monetizing this non-core uranium
asset, Energy Fuels is able to improve our balance sheet and realize cost
reductions. Energy Fuels continues to believe in the long-term fundamentals of
the uranium and nuclear markets, and this transaction will not impact our future
production potential or scalability. Mr. Glasier is extremely knowledgeable of
the Piñon Ridge Project, and as a resident of Western Colorado, he is in an
excellent position to see it through. Energy Fuels offers our sincere thanks to
the people of Western Colorado, and particularly the residents of the West End
of Montrose County, who have overwhelmingly supported this project over the past
several years.
About Energy Fuels: Energy Fuels is currently
Americas largest conventional uranium producer, supplying approximately 25% of
the uranium produced in the U.S. in 2013. Energy Fuels operates the White Mesa
Mill, which is the only conventional uranium mill currently operating in the
U.S. The mill is capable of processing 2,000 tons per day of uranium ore and
has a licensed capacity of over 8 million lbs. of
U3O8.Energy Fuels has projects
located in a number of Western U.S. states, including a producing mine,
mines on standby, and mineral properties in various stages of permitting and
