Uranium Energy Corp Files Quarterly Report For the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2025
NYSE American: UEC
Highlights:
-
Commissioned first new mine-unit at Christensen Ranch In-Situ Recovery ("ISR") Mine
, with Header House 10-7 coming online as part of the phased ramp-up of
Wyoming 'sPowder River Basin operations. -
Construction advancing at Burke Hollow in
South Texas , with major equipment installed at the satellite ion exchange plant and disposal well development in progress. -
Sweetwater production hub development progressing , with a Technical Report Summary ("TRS") to be issued at the end of fiscal 2025 for a new Hub-and-Spoke model anchored by the Sweetwater Plant in theGreat Divide Basin , Wyoming. - Roughrider Pre-Feasibility initiated , with metallurgical test work significantly advanced, bulk solvent extraction and yellowcake precipitation completed; and process initiated for a formal S-K 1300 Pre-Feasibility Study.
-
Expanded the U
.S. Operations and Technical Team
, with the
Wyoming andTexas workforce growing to more than 100 employees. Key personnel were added in operations, geology, metallurgy and supply chain management, deepening the production team's bench strength. -
Quadrupling of
U.S. nuclear capacity with transformational Executive Orders from theTrump Administration , that also include fast track permitting support for advanced and micro-reactors and reducingU.S. dependence on foreign sources of nuclear fuel as a matter of national security. -
Increasing demand for
U.S. origin uranium , with a memorandum of understanding signed forWyoming produced uranium concentrates toRadiant Industries, Inc. , a microreactor company in preparation for testing at theIdaho National Laboratory .
Financial Highlights:
-
$271 million of cash, inventory and equities at market prices(1), and no debt onMay 30, 2025 . -
Inventory totals 1,356,000 pounds of U3O8
valued at
$96.6 million at market prices(1). UEC'sU.S. warehoused physical uranium program will be expanded by 300,000 pounds through purchase contracts inDecember 2025 at$37.05 per pound, providing a low-cost stream of physical uranium at a time of heightened geopolitical uncertainty.

This quarter's operational milestones—commissioning new ISR production in
Additionally, preparing our Roughrider project in
UEC achieved a significant operational milestone this quarter with the startup of Header House 10-7, marking the first new production area at
Key refurbishment work was completed at both the Christensen Ranch ion exchange plant and the Irigaray Central Processing Plant. At
Field development advanced with active drilling in wellfield 11 (piloting, casing, underreaming), delineation drilling in wellfield 12, and extensions in wellfields 8 and 10. Consistent with UEC's sustainability commitments and regulatory obligations, plugging and abandonment of wells in wellfield 2 was also initiated during the quarter.
As a result of the ramp-up, employment at
Construction at the Burke Hollow Project continued to progress on schedule, with key advances made across wellfield development and processing infrastructure.
In Production Area One (PA-1), drilling activity remained robust with 101 additional holes completed and 65 wells cased to expand the production footprint. Simultaneously, the installation of the high-density polyethylene (HDPE) trunkline between the satellite ion exchange plant and PA-1 began, marking another key step in preparing for flowline integration. At Production Area Two (PA-2), drilling commenced to define the footprint for future perimeter monitor wells, setting the stage for further phased expansion.
Construction of the satellite ion exchange plant also advanced meaningfully. Following completion of the main concrete slab in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, key uranium processing equipment was received, including a resin hauling trailer, motor control centers, and two filter presses. Four ion exchange columns were installed—all positioned and internally piped on the foundation. In parallel, a contract was awarded for the drilling of a deep disposal well, an important component for wastewater management during operational phases.
With these milestones achieved, UEC's South Texas workforce has grown to 40 personnel, supporting the Company's advancing development at Burke Hollow and broader hub-and-spoke platform in the region.
UEC expects to issue a TRS with an estimate of mineral resources of the Great Divide Basin Hub-and-Spoke by the end of fiscal 2025. In this report, the Sweetwater Plant will be designated as the "Hub," supported by a series of satellite projects or "Spokes."
The Spokes will include:
- Red Desert: REB, ENQ, and
Sweetwater deposits -
Green Mountain : Round Park, Phase 2, Whiskey Peak, and Desert View Resource Zones - Additional nearby properties: JAB, Clarkson Hill, and Red Rim
In parallel with the TRS work, UEC has initiated efforts to amend the conventional mining permits at the Sweetwater Uranium Project. These amendments will incorporate:
- ISR mining methods
- ISR-mineable resources
- A new ion exchange and elution circuit at the Sweetwater Plant
These activities are advancing UEC's development plans for a scalable hub-and-spoke ISR production platform in
In preparation for a proposed pre-feasibility study, UEC drilled metallurgical holes in 2024 across the West Zone,
Metallurgical test work, initiated in
- Bulk solvent extraction on pregnant leach solution to generate raffinate and pregnant strip liquor
- Gypsum removal from the pregnant strip liquor
- Yellowcake precipitation
- Bulk tailings neutralization and effluent treatment
- Liquid/solid separation of simulated tailings
In parallel, UEC has initiated a request for proposal to engage qualified firms for the preparation of the forthcoming pre-feasibility study and related TRS.
Notes:
- Market values for securities are based on closing prices as at
May 30, 2025 , and for uranium inventories are based on the spot price quoted on UxC CVD as of such date. - On
September 14, 2022 , UEC filed an expanded S-K 1300 TRS for the Wyoming Hub-and-Spoke platform, covering properties throughoutWyoming . UEC is now dividing the Wyoming TRS into two Hub-and-Spoke reports – one for the Great Divide Basin Hub (Sweetwater Plant and properties) and the other for the PowderRiver Basin Hub (Irigaray Plant and properties). The Great Divide Basin Hub-and-Spoke TRS is expected to be issued at the end of fiscal 2025. The PowderRiver Basin Hub -and-Spoke TRS is expected to be issued shortly thereafter.
