Chalmers and Karayannopoulos on the production initiative designed to strengthen the US/EUR rare earths supply chain

In a recent InvestorIntel interview, Tracy Weslosky speaks with Mark Chalmers, President and CEO of Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU | TSX: EFR) and Constantine Karayannopoulos, President, CEO and Director of Neo Performance Materials Inc. (TSX: NEO), about their new rare earth production initiative to strengthen and diversify U.S. and European rare earths supply chains.

In this InvestorIntel interview, which may also be viewed on YouTube (click here to subscribe to the InvestorIntel Channel), Constantine went on to say that monazite is the perfect raw material for the industry because of its excellent distribution of magnetic rare earths – neodymium and praseodymium. “Energy Fuels is the missing link to solving the monazite problem,” he added. Speaking on the joint venture with Energy Fuels, Constantine commented that it “is going to be a major contributor to the overall supply of rare earths globally.” Mark adding, “We are confident that we can be cost-competitive with the world.”
