  •  
  • The 2025 exploration program is now underway at the Project and will follow up on these results, as well as test other high priority targets;
  •  
  • This fully-funded exploration program consists of an initial 100,000 feet of rotary mud drilling, with results to be reported at a similar cadence to the 2024 drill program.
  •  

"Our 2025 drill program is designed to build on the discovery of the Outpost Zone and further test the potential of the Kaycee Project," said Greg Huffman , Chief Executive Officer. "This new zone of roll front-hosted uranium mineralization not only validates our geological model but also highlights the potential for further discoveries within this district. As we commence our 2025 drilling campaign, our priority is to delineate the extent of the Outpost Zone and assess its potential to contribute to future resources at Kaycee . We remain committed to advancing the Kaycee Project and delivering value to our shareholders through systematic exploration and development."

Strategic Transaction with Premier American Uranium Inc.  

 

On June 5, 2025 the Company and Premier American Uranium Inc. (TSXV: PUR, OTCQB: PAUIF) announced that they have entered into an arm's length definitive agreement ( Nuclear Fuels NR June 5, 2025   ), pursuant to which Premier American Uranium has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Nuclear Fuels by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement" or the "Transaction"). Under the terms of the Arrangement, shareholders of Nuclear Fuels will receive 0.33 of a common share of Premier American Uranium for each Nuclear Fuels Share held. Existing shareholders of Premier American Uranium and Nuclear Fuels will own approximately 59% and 41% (on a basic shares outstanding basis), respectively, of the pro forma outstanding PUR Shares on closing of the Arrangement. The Transaction will require approval by at least 66 2/3% of the votes cast by NF Shareholders and, if required by Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions, a simple majority of the votes cast by Nuclear Fuels Shareholders excluding certain interested or related parties, in each case by shareholders present in person or represented by proxy at a special meeting of NF Shareholders to be called in connection with the Transaction (the "NF Special Meeting"). The NF Special Meeting is expected to be held in the third quarter of 2025 and Closing of the Transaction is anticipated to occur in the third quarter of 2025.

 

  Kaycee Uranium Project, Wyoming   

 

The Kaycee Project in Wyoming's PRB, Nuclear Fuels' priority project, consists of 55 square miles of mineral rights over a 35-mile mineralized trend hosting 430 miles of identified roll fronts. The Kaycee Project is believed to be the only project in the PRB where all three known historically productive sandstone formations (Wasatch, Fort Union, and Lance) are mineralized and potentially accessible for ISR extraction. The Kaycee Project, under Nuclear Fuels, represents the first time since the early 1980's that the entire district is controlled by one company.

 

In 2023, Nuclear Fuels acquired the Kaycee Project from enCore Energy Corp., which retains a back-in right for 51% of the project by paying 2.5X the exploration costs and financing the Kaycee project to production (costs recoverable from production) upon Nuclear Fuels establishing a minimum 15 million pound eU 3 O 8 43-101 compliant resource.

 

  Wyoming is a proven and prolific uranium producer with a pro-energy government and established regulatory regime for the permitting and extraction of uranium through ISR technology. Wyoming is one of the few "Agreement States" hosting ISR uranium deposits, where the federal government and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission have ceded regulatory authority to the state government, permitting and advancing uranium projects is more efficient and streamlined as compared to most other states. Wyoming , with over 250 million pounds of historic uranium production, ranks as the state with the second most uranium production to date; most of which has been through the ISR technology since 1990, predominantly from the PRB.

Nuclear Fuels Acquires TenSleep Uranium Project with Athabasca Basin-Style Mineralization in Wyoming's Powder River Basin

Nuclear Fuels Acquires TenSleep Uranium Project with Athabasca Basin-Style Mineralization in Wyoming's Powder River Basin

 
 

  CSE:NF 
OTCQX:NFUNF
 

 

Nuclear Fuels Inc. (CSE: NF) (OTCQX: NFUNF) ("Nuclear Fuels" or the "Company") announced today the acquisition of the TenSleep Uranium Project, located approximately 10 miles (16 kilometers) west of the town of Kaycee in Johnson County Wyoming.  The TenSleep Project is a unique uranium project in Wyoming displaying geological characteristics similar to the deposits in Saskatchewan's prolific Athabasca Basin rather than the typical roll front sandstone-hosted uranium deposits of the United States. Athabasca or "unconformity" uranium deposits occur along the contact of two different rock types in the vicinity of one or more high-angle faults providing the pathway for the mineralizing fluids to deposit uranium along the contact. These deposits are typically larger and higher grade than roll-front types. The Company is currently developing an exploration program with drilling planned for late 2025 or early 2026.
