Cautionary Statement
This news release contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and
assumptions and are identified by words such as “expects,”
“estimates,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” and
other similar words. All statements addressing events or
developments that WWR expects or anticipates will occur in the
future, including but not limited to the future demand for and
price of graphite, lithium and uranium, the Company’s growth,
developments at the Company’s projects, and the Company’s liquidity
and cash demands, including future capital markets financing and
disposition activities, are forward-looking statements. Because
they are forward-looking, they should be evaluated in light of
important risk factors and uncertainties. These risk factors and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, (a) the Company’s
ability to successfully integrate Alabama Graphite Corporation’s
business into its own, and the risk that additional analysis of the
Coosa Graphite Project may result in revisions to the findings of
WWR’s initial optimization study; (b) the Company’s ability to
raise additional capital in the future; (c) spot price and
long-term contract price of graphite, lithium, vanadium and
uranium; (d) risks associated with our operations and the
operations of our partners such as Dorfner Anzaplan, including the
impact of COVID-19; (e) operating conditions at the Company’s
projects; (f) government and tribal regulation of the graphite
industry, the lithium industry, the vanadium industry, the uranium
industry, and the power industry, and government support for
domestic uranium production and nuclear power; (g) world-wide
graphite, lithium, vanadium and uranium supply and demand,
including the supply and demand for lithium-based batteries; (h)
maintaining sufficient financial assurance in the form of
sufficiently collateralized surety instruments; (i) unanticipated
geological, processing, regulatory and legal or other problems the
Company may encounter in the jurisdictions where the Company
operates or intends to operate, including in Alabama, Texas, New
Mexico, Utah, and Nevada; (j) the ability of the Company to enter
into and successfully close acquisitions or other material
transactions; (k) the results of the Company’s lithium brine
exploration activities at the Columbus Basin and Sal Rica projects,
and the possibility that future exploration results may be
materially less promising than initial exploration result; (i) any
graphite, lithium, vanadium or uranium discoveries not being in
high-enough concentration to make it economic to extract the
metals; (m) currently pending or new litigation or arbitration; and
(n) other factors which are more fully described in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and
other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize or should
any of the Company’s underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual
results may vary materially from those currently anticipated. In
addition, undue reliance should not be placed on the Company’s
forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, the Company
disclaims any obligation to update or publicly announce any
revisions to any of the forward-looking statements contained in
this news release.
