With uranium prices regaining its healthy glow, investors have been pushing into related stocks. In fact, with Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, “The crisis has European countries thinking more seriously about adding nuclear power generation. Germany is even reconsidering its nuclear ban,” reports MarketWatch. We could even see a nuclear revival in the U.S. That’s because the U.S. is far too dependent on Russia and its regional allies such as Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, which supply us with 50% of needed uranium supply. “Now, U.S. uranium miners say they see an opportunity to make some money helping the nation fight back against Russia. That would mean restarting idle mines, rebooting an industry in the U.S. that dramatically shrank in recent years when uranium prices were low,” added E&E News. All could continue to be beneficial for companies such as Anfield Energy Inc. (TSXV: AEC) (OTCQB: ANLDF), Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSE: UEC), Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), NexGen Energy Ltd. (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE), and Ur-Energy Inc. (TSX: URE) (NYSE: URG).
Look at Anfield Energy Inc. (TSXV: AEC) (OTCQB: ANLDF), For Example
Anfield Energy Inc. announced that it has engaged BRS Inc. and Wright Environmental Services to restart the permit application process with regard to the Company’s Velvet-Wood uranium and vanadium project in Utah. An updated Plan of Operations and necessary environmental studies are being commissioned to capitalize on the advanced permitting and licensing work previously undertaken by Uranium One in 2008 and 2009. Both BRS and Wright Environmental were involved in Uranium One’s previous efforts to permit Velvet-Wood, bringing a wealth of asset-specific experience and knowledge to the effort.
Studies previously completed include:
1) 607-acre cultural resources survey
2) Hydrogeologic and Groundwater Quality Study
3) Mine Water Treatment Study
4) Baseline Surface Radiological Survey
5) Baseline Wildlife, Vegetation and Soil Survey
In addition to the above, a UPDES Discharge Permit for the mine dewatering treatment system was issued to Uranium One by the State of Utah in October 2008.
Corey Dias, Anfield CEO, stated, “The Velvet-Wood project is a critical part of Anfield’s production objectives, given its past-producer status and robust economics tied to a previously-completed economic assessment. A great deal of work has already been completed in pursuit of a mining permit for Velvet-Wood, significantly shortening the timeline that would be required otherwise. We are confident that Velvet-Wood will play an important role in the execution of our conventional mine and mill complex production plan.”

Ur-Energy is in the enviable position of being able to quickly ramp up and participate in an improving uranium market and, in addition, we could immediately deliver up to 284,000 pounds U3O8 into the Uranium Reserve Program, currently being established by the U.S. Department of Energy. On March 3, 2022, we had $44.7 million in cash, plus our ready to sell U.S. produced inventory, worth approximately $14.4 million at recent spot prices.
