In other recent news, Energy Fuels Inc. announced the lifting of a suspension on its Toliara Project in Madagascar, a significant development for the company. The suspension, which had been in place since November 2019, was removed following a decision by the Madagascar Council of Ministers. This move allows Energy Fuels to resume activities aimed at producing titanium and zirconium minerals, including ilmenite, rutile, and zircon. The company has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Republic of Madagascar, which outlines terms for advancing the project and includes a commitment to a 5% royalty on mining products and $80 million towards development and social projects. Energy Fuels is also in discussions with the Madagascar government to establish fiscal and stability terms for the project, with the possibility of adding rare-earth element production to the mining permit. The company anticipates making a final investment decision by early 2026, but notes potential risks such as commodity price fluctuations and regulatory changes that could affect the project’s progress. The agreement’s effectiveness depends on several conditions, including the adoption of a satisfactory "Stability Mechanism." Energy Fuels has not yet provided guidance on the financial impact of resuming the Toliara Project.
