Chemours and Energy Fuels partner to expand domestic mineral supply chain

Chemours (CC) and Energy Fuels (UUUU) are forming a strategic alliance to expand the companies’ existing relationship to enhance U.S. domestic rare earth and critical mineral supply chains to meet increasing demand. The alliance will capitalize on the complementary geographic and operational synergies of both organizations. Energy Fuels, a U.S. producer of rare earth elements, is currently developing new heavy mineral sands projects in Madagascar, Brazil, and Australia, expected to produce world-scale quantities of rare earth, titanium ilmenite and zircon minerals in the coming years. Chemours mines and separates heavy mineral sands from its mines in Florida and Georgia.
