Production and Revenue Growth at Alta Mesa Uranium Project, Texas

Boss Energy Limited (ASX: BOE; OTCQX: BQSSF) advises that enCore Energy Corp (NASDAQ:EU|TSXV: EU) (enCore) has published a financial and operational update.


enCore is the operator and 70 per cent-owner of the Alta Mesa Uranium Project in Texas, in which Boss has a 30 per cent stake. Alta Mesa is ramping up to an annualised production rate of 1.5 million pounds U3O8. Boss’ share of this production is 30 per cent.

In the update, enCore said: “The Company's outlook is positive, with substantial and growing revenue from Alta Mesa contributing to financial results throughout the first nine months of 2024 and beyond, as additional production and extraction wells come online.

“The nuclear industry outlook remains extremely positive with demand projections outpacing supply for the foreseeable future driven in part by increased electrical demand from Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) and the commitment of many sectors of the economy to achieve zero carbon.

“Continued primary uranium production supply disruptions and constraints continue on a global basis as geopolitical tensions, trade restrictions, and local government decisions are observed.

“Current contracting conditions continue to remain favourable, with term contract pricing now higher than at the current spot price in the high US$70s than it was when the spot price reached its twelve-month high of US$107 per pound U3O 1”.

EnCore reported recently that the first IX (ion exchange) plant at Alta Mesa was commissioned in June 2024 with the second IX plant planned to commence operation in the first quarter of 2025 and the third IX plant planned to be online by year end of 2025.

Ion exchange is a filtration system which removes liquid uranium from groundwater before being dried and processed into uranium yellowcake (i.e. U3O8).

Please refer to enCore’s announcement dated November 14, 2024 for further information2.

Leigh Curyer, Chief Executive Officer, commented: "These offtake awards with premier US utilities represents a pivotal moment for NexGen. They underscore the premier quality and scalability of the Rook I Project, whilst offering diversification of supply from existing centralised sources. Further, the terms of these awards reflect market related pricing mechanisms at the time of delivery reflecting NexGen's long-term stated strategy of optimizing the value of each pound produced.

Energy demand from reliable sources is increasing by the week with the need to expand existing nuclear energy infrastructure and the construction of power consuming data centres at a time the security of uranium supply is under significant technical and sovereign risk.

The contract awards are in parallel to ongoing discussions and negotiations with additional US, European and Asian utilities, which further complement NexGen's strong financial position and construction-ready status at Rook I. The Project is poised to become one of the largest and most environmentally sustainable uranium operations globally. This milestone is another reflection of NexGen's ability to execute on its strategic vision in advancing its position as a global leader in the nuclear fuel supply chain."
