Opened
2012-01-01
Overview
The Channen project, operated by Uranium Energy Corp (UEC), is a former exploration project located in Goliad County, Texas, in the United States. The project is no longer active. UEC acquired the rights to the 10,704-acre Channen Project in May 2012, with plans for an exploration drilling program. Initial exploration activities commenced in July 2012, with drilling targeting the Goliad Formation sands. A total of 43 exploration holes, amounting to 39,340 feet, were drilled in the fiscal year 2013. However, in a quarterly report for the period ending 30 April 2014, UEC stated that the company had abandoned the Channen Project and had recognised a corresponding impairment loss. There have been no subsequent official announcements or reports from UEC regarding any renewed activity or change in the status of the Channen project.

Overview
The Alta Mesa Project is an in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium operation in South Texas. It is operated by enCore Energy Corp. under a 70/30 joint venture with Boss Energy Limited. Production at the Alta Mesa plant recommenced in the second quarter of 2024, after being on standby since 2013 due to low uranium prices. The facility historically produced nearly 5 million pounds of uranium between 2005 and 2013.
Production
Production overview - 2025: uranium 290000 lbs.
Processing
The project uses in-situ recovery, a solution mining method where oxygenated water is injected underground to dissolve uranium. The uranium-bearing solution is then pumped to a central processing plant. The plant has a total operating capacity of 1.5 million pounds of U3O8 per year and an additional drying capacity of 0.5 million pounds. In March 2025, the company started a second ion exchange circuit, doubling the total flow capacity. A third circuit is planned for recommissioning in 2026, which will bring the plant to its full ion exchange capacity.
Expansion
enCore Energy is actively expanding wellfields to increase production. The company is increasing production from Production Authorization Area 7 (PAA-7) and has started work on a second new wellfield at Production Authorization Area 8 (PAA-8), with the goal of reaching full operational capacity by 2026. Initial work has also begun at the permitted Wellfield 6, with a planned resumption of operations in the fourth quarter of 2025. In August 2025, enCore acquired the 5,900-acre "Tacubaya" property adjacent to the existing wellfields, which is expected to provide additional feed and extend the project's life. An exploration program on this new property is planned. In October 2025, the company announced new uranium discoveries near existing wellfields resulting from a re-analysis of historical drill holes. Delineation drilling of these new roll fronts is expected to continue into 2026.

Overview
The Goliad mine, operated by Uranium Energy Corp (UEC), is a fully permitted in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium project located in Goliad County, Texas, United States. It is part of UEC's "hub-and-spoke" strategy in South Texas, designated to process future production at the central Hobson Processing Plant. The project is currently in a state of near-term production readiness and has received all major permits, including a Radioactive Material License. However, it faces local opposition and challenges to permit renewals. Uranium mineralisation is found in roll-front sandstone deposits within the Goliad Formation, suitable for ISR mining. Commencement of mining is pending a more favourable uranium market and resolution of local opposition.

Overview
The Tony M Mine is a fully-developed and permitted underground mine located in the Henry Mountain Basin, approximately 8 kilometres (5 miles) north of Ticaboo, Utah, in the United States. The mine's commodities are uranium and vanadium. IsoEnergy has 100% ownership of the mine. The mine is currently on standby and is a past-producing asset. IsoEnergy is advancing towards a potential restart of operations at the Tony M Mine. In late 2025, a bulk sample program was initiated to extract up to 2,000 tons of mineralized material over a 12 to 14-week period. This program utilizes contract mining services from GenX Mining Contractors, LLC. The mine has significant existing infrastructure, including 28 kilometres (17 miles) of underground development, surface facilities, and underground equipment shops.
Production
Historical production from September 1979 to April 1984 by Plateau Resources yielded 574,500 pounds of U3O8. Denison Mines Corp. later operated the mine from September 2007 to November 2008, producing 310,500 pounds of U3O8.
