Fact mine-037
The Utah Geological Survey's 'Utah mining 2024' (Circular 139, 2025) says Energy Fuels is the only uranium producer in Utah, having restarted its Beaver, La Sal and Pandora mines in early 2024 (29,780 tons of ore worth about $13 million), and that its mill outside Blanding is the only conventional uranium mill in the United States; not all the uranium it processes is from Utah ore. It lists the Velvet-Wood mine near Monticello (plan approved in early June 2025 after a federal fast-track), Anfield's plan to restart the Shootaring Canyon mill near Ticaboo in 2027, IsoEnergy's Tony M project and the Harts Point exploration project. None is in Carbon or Emery County. Utah DEQ licenses the White Mesa mill (license UT1900479) since Utah became an Agreement State for uranium mills in August 2004.
