Puneet Singh's questions to ENERGY FUELS (UUUU) leadership • Q3 2024
Question
Puneet Singh of Eight Capital asked about the strategic advantages of pursuing conventional versus ISR uranium mining and inquired about the company's ability to source the necessary labor for its operations.
Answer
President and CEO Mark Chalmers detailed that conventional mining provides superior operational flexibility, allowing the company to start and stop production in response to market conditions, unlike the long-term commitment required for ISR. He noted that while finding skilled labor is a challenge, the company benefits from a stable workforce for its conventional mines near Blanding, Utah, avoiding more intense labor competition seen in ISR hubs.
