White Mesa Mill Rare Earth Element Processing Expansion

planned

Energy Fuels is expanding the White Mesa Mill in Blanding, Utah, the only operating conventional uranium mill in the US, to increase rare earth element (REE) processing capacity. Phase 1 capacity processes up to 10,000 metric tonnes per annum (tpa) of monazite concentrate producing up to 1,000 tpa of neodymium-praseodymium (NdPr) oxide. A Phase 1 expansion targeting commercial production of heavy REE oxides including dysprosium and terbium is planned for mid-2027. A larger Phase 2 expansion aims to increase monazite processing capacity to 60,000 tpa and NdPr oxide output to 6,000 tpa.
