Westwater Resources updates permitting process for Coosa Graphite Deposit

Westwater Resources (WWR) provided an update on the permitting process for mine development at the Coosa Graphite Deposit in Coosa County, Alabama. The Company has retained a third-party engineering firm to lead the permitting process for mine development at the Coosa Deposit and expects to engage with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, and other state and local authorities in the coming months. The permitting process is expected to include preparation of key environmental studies and applications under applicable federal and state frameworks, including, but not limited to, water discharge, wetlands and air permits, and other operational and construction-related approvals. In parallel with permitting activities, the company plans to conduct additional drilling to further delineate and expand the resource base at Coosa. These results will inform ongoing mine planning and design efforts, as Westwater continues to evaluate and optimize the project for efficient, responsible production of natural graphite.
