Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE:UEC) announced that its Sweetwater Uranium Complex has been designated for fast-track permitting by the U.S. Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council. The project will be added to the FAST-41 transparency dashboard following President Trump's Executive Order on increasing American mineral production.
The permitting initiative aims to enable In-Situ Recovery (ISR) mining within the existing mine permit boundary and expand to adjacent ISR-amenable deposits. Upon completion, Sweetwater will become the largest dual-feed uranium facility in the United States, capable of processing both conventional ore and ISR resin. The project, acquired from Rio Tinto in 2024, will serve as UEC's third hub-and-spoke production platform.
Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE: UEC), America's largest uranium supplier, held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) on July 17, 2025. Stockholders approved key proposals including the election of six directors to the Board and the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent auditor. The company's executive compensation received strong support with 95% approval.
Following the AGM, the Board reappointed key executives including Amir Adnani as CEO, Josephine Man as CFO, Scott Melbye as Executive VP, and Brent Berg as SVP of U.S. Operations. UEC operates three ISR hub-and-spoke platforms in South Texas and Wyoming, with operations recently restarted at the Christensen Ranch Project in Wyoming.
President Trump issued Executive Orders aimed at transforming the U.S. nuclear sector, with plans to quadruple U.S. nuclear capacity from 100 GW to 400 GW by 2050. The orders invoke the Defense Production Act and designate the nuclear fuel cycle as critical to national security. The Department of Energy is directed to achieve 5 GW of uprates at existing plants and initiate construction of 10 new large reactors by 2030.
The initiative aims to expand domestic uranium production, conversion, and enrichment capabilities, as the U.S. currently supplies only 5% of its nuclear fuel needs. This expansion would increase annual U.S. uranium requirements from 47 million pounds to approximately 190 million pounds per year. Uranium Energy Corp (UEC), as America's largest uranium supplier, is positioned to support this policy shift with domestic production and infrastructure.
