With 88 million pounds of historic resources and a large land package, Verdera is advancing ISR uranium assets in a key U.S. district. Verdera Energy is advancing a portfolio of uranium projects in New Mexico, focused on in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium extraction methods and supported by 88 million pounds of known and historic resources. With strong funding and a large land position in a historically productive district, the company is positioning to support growing U.S. demand for domestic uranium supply. As nuclear energy gains renewed attention as a low-carbon and reliable power source, securing domestic uranium supply has become a priority for the United States. Verdera Energy is focused on addressing this gap through a portfolio of ISR-amenable uranium assets located in the Grants Uranium District in New Mexico, one of the country’s most historically productive uranium regions. The company holds approximately 400 square miles of private mineral rights across four key projects: Crown Point, West Largo, Ambrosia Lake, and Nose Rock. These assets collectively account for 88 million pounds of known and historic uranium resources. The region itself has produced a significant portion of U.S. uranium historically, adding context to the scale of the opportunity. Verdera has also built what it describes as the largest privately held uranium database in the state, providing a technical foundation for ongoing exploration and development. The company recently completed a $20 financing, bringing total cash to approximately $24 million, which is expected to support advancement across its project portfolio over the coming years. Initial focus is being directed toward the Crown Point project, while Ambrosia Lake represents another key asset within the portfolio, located in the Grants Uranium District. ISR technology, which involves extracting uranium through solution-based techniques, is a central part of the company’s development strategy. With U.S. uranium consumption significantly exceeding domestic production, projects capable of advancing toward production may become increasingly relevant. Verdera’s positioning in a large, historically productive district aligns with broader efforts to strengthen domestic supply chains for nuclear fuel.

A large-scale lithium asset on the Oregon–Nevada border positions Jindalee and US Elemental within the push for domestic battery materials Jindalee Lithium is focused on developing the McDermitt Lithium Project, located on the border of Oregon and Nevada. The project is characterized by its size and long-life potential, with a resource base of approximately 21.5 million tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent. This scale places it among the larger lithium assets being advanced in North America. Lithium demand continues to grow as battery storage, electric vehicles, and data center infrastructure expand globally. Within this context, projects capable of supplying lithium domestically are gaining attention. Jindalee’s strategy is aligned with this trend, emphasizing the potential to contribute to U.S. supply chains for critical battery materials. A key part of the company’s approach involves “Americanizing” the project. This includes a proposed transaction to combine its U.S. subsidiary with a U.S.-listed acquisition vehicle, forming a new entity, US Elemental, expected to list on Nasdaq under the ticker "ULIT." The structure is intended to provide direct access for U.S. investors to the underlying asset. In addition to lithium, the company is also evaluating the potential to recover magnesium as a byproduct, with metallurgical work underway. This could introduce an additional value stream, depending on project development outcomes. With a combination of scale, jurisdictional positioning, and strategic restructuring, Jindalee is advancing within a sector where long-term demand is closely tied to electrification and energy storage trends.
