Westwater Resources Announces Business Update Conference Call

Westwater Resources, Inc. (NYSE American: WWR), an energy technology and battery-grade natural graphite development company, today announced it will hold a conference call to provide a business update related to its graphite business in the first part of June 2024 following its Annual Shareholder Meeting.

Westwater held an investor call on March 20, 2024, at which time it provided an update to investors on first quarter business matters. Specifically, the execution of its first off-take agreement with SK On for Coated Spherical Purified Graphite (“CSPG”), and the completion of a debottlenecking study, resulting in anticipated Phase I production of CSPG to 12,500 mt per year while maintaining the Phase I construction budget of the Kellyton Graphite Plant at $271 million.

On the next investor call, Westwater plans to discuss the results of its Annual Shareholder Meeting, provide an update on customer engagement and offtake agreements, financing for Phase I, and the outcome of the feasibility study for Phase II.

Conference call information related to this business update will be announced ahead of the call.
