Energy Fuels Begins Trading on the OTCQX
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 06/26/13 -- Energy Fuels Inc. (TSX: EFR)(OTCQX: EFRFF) ("Energy Fuels" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that today the Company's common shares began trading in the United States on the OTCQX under the symbol "EFRFF". Energy Fuels will continue to trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under its existing symbol "EFR".
Energy Fuels' shares will be traded on OTCQX International, a segment of the marketplace reserved for high-quality non-U.S. companies that are listed on an international exchange and provide their home country disclosure to U.S. investors. U.S. investors will find current financial disclosures and Real-Time Level-2 quotes for Energy Fuels on .
Energy Fuels is currently a leading uranium producer in the U.S. Based on the Company's outlook for FY-2013, Energy Fuels' 1.2 million lbs. of production is expected to account for over 25% of domestic U.S. uranium production. Energy Fuels is also among the largest holders of NI 43-101 compliant uranium resources in the U.S., which is strategic since the United States is the World's largest consumer of nuclear power, yet imports over 90% of the uranium used in its nuclear reactors.
The Company's uranium production and development assets in the western U.S. include the following:
The recently announced proposed acquisition of Strathmore Minerals will improve the Company's future production profile even further, as the combined company will have a dominant position in the most important uranium districts in the U.S. and three large-scale development projects in Wyoming, New Mexico, and Utah.
According to Stephen P. Antony, President and CEO of Energy Fuels, "Trading on the OTCQX will benefit Energy Fuels by increasing investor awareness of the company in the U.S. and helping us connect with a broader audience. I believe our Company owns an unmatched portfolio of highly strategic assets whose strategic value will only grow over time, particularly as the HEU agreement between the U.S. and Russia expires later this year, removing up to 24 million pounds of annual uranium supply from the U.S. I believe Energy Fuels' current production profile, production growth potential, term supply contracts with major utilities at premium prices, and robust pipeline of standby and development projects uniquely position Energy Fuels within the U.S. and the global uranium sector as a whole."
Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP will serve as Energy Fuels' Principal American Liaison "PAL") on OTCQX, responsible for providing professional guidance on OTCQX requirements and U.S. securities laws.
