Energy Fuels Successfully Produces First Kilogram of 99.9% Purity Dysprosium Oxide at its White Mesa Mill in Utah; on Track to Commence Terbium Production in Q4 2025
Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), a leading U.S. producer of uranium, rare earths, and critical minerals, is pleased to announce that it has successfully completed production of its first kilogram of dysprosium (Dy) oxide at pilot scale at the Company's White Mesa Mill in Utah. The Company achieved a purity of 99.9% Dy, which is well in excess of the 99.5% commercial specification. The Mill expects to continue producing dysprosium oxide at a rate of two (2) kilograms per week. Energy Fu

The Mill expects to continue producing dysprosium oxide at a rate of two (2) kilograms per week. Energy Fuels believes it is the first U.S. company to both produce high-purity Dy oxide and publicly disclose actual production volumes and purities. These oxides are being produced from monazite mined in Florida and Georgia, USA and demonstrate the expected viability of Energy Fuels' completely non-Chinese rare earth oxide supply chain. Multiple magnet manufacturers and OEMs have already expressed their strong interest in obtaining these samples to accelerate their validation processes.","length":1028,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":"Energy Fuels believes the quantity and purity of its Dy oxide production is unmatched in the United States at this time and is a testament to the White Mesa Mill's world-class rare earth element (REE) production capabilities. Pilot-scale production is expected to continue until approximately 15 kilograms of Dy oxide are produced. At that point, Energy Fuels intends to produce high purity terbium (Tb) oxide and is targeting Q4-2025 for the first samples of Tb oxide to be available for end-user validation.","length":513,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"image","alt":"Sample of high-purity Dy oxide produced at Energy Fuels’ White Mesa Mill in Blanding, Utah (CNW Group/Energy Fuels Inc.)","displaySize":"","headline":null,"caption":"Sample of high-purity Dy oxide produced at Energy Fuels’ White Mesa Mill in Blanding, Utah (CNW Group/Energy Fuels Inc.)","className":"","disableSlideshowImg":false,"size":{"original":{"width":255,"height":192,"url":"https://media.zenfs.com/en/prnewswire.com/bdf8cc7fb44c847db837be63bf044172"},"resiz...
