Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. is a leading North American mining company focused on the exploration, development, and production of high-grade uranium and vanadium resources. Founded in 2014, the company was established to seize strategic opportunities in the uranium market during the post-Fukushima downturn by acquiring valuable mining assets at favorable terms. Today, Western Uranium & Vanadium is advancing a portfolio of premier projects across the western United States, positioning itself as a key player in the global supply of critical minerals for clean energy and industrial applications.
This article from the Canadian Securities Exchange Magazine (January 2023) features an interview with George Glasier, CEO of Western Uranium & Vanadium Corp. The discussion highlights the company’s strategic focus on low-cost uranium and vanadium production in the U.S., particularly through the Sunday Mine Complex. Glasier emphasizes the rising demand for uranium due to increasing nuclear energy use and forecasts strong market potential for both uranium and vanadium. The company aims to resume production soon and build a processing plant to support future expansion efforts.
