Anfield Energy Inc. is pleased to announce that, following receipt of comments regarding the Company’s Plan of Operations submittal from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the Colorado Division of Reclamation, Mining and Safety (DRMS), the Company has thoroughly addressed all outstanding comments and has submitted a permit amendment for the restart of its past-producing JD-8 uranium and vanadium mine (the “JD-8 Mine”) in Montrose County, Colorado.
Key Highlights
- Regulatory Clearance: Anfield has addressed all outstanding technical, financial and environmental comments from the DOE and DRMS.
- Production Timeline: The JD-8 Mine remains on schedule for potential approval and mobilization in mid-2026, with a targeted production restart in the second half of 2026.
- Operational Base: The JD-7 mine infrastructure will now serve as the central base of operations for the entire Monogram Mesa Mine Complex, improving efficiency and reducing costs. Mined material from JD-8, as part of Anfield’s hub-and-spoke production strategy, will be processed at Anfield’s Shootaring Canyon mill in Utah, one of only three licensed conventional mills in the United States.
- Competitive Advantage: The Company is leveraging its recent acquisition of BRS, Inc. to streamline the regulatory process and technical development.
This permit amendment builds directly on the Company’s initial comprehensive Plan of Operations permitting application submitted to DRMS on November 19, 2025, which received an affirmative initial completeness determination from DRMS on December 22, 2025, confirming that all required technical, environmental, reclamation, and financial assurance components were in place to advance to full substantive review. The permit amendment incorporates all regulatory feedback received and further strengthens the application as it progresses through the review process. The Company is confident regarding the quality and completeness of the current submission and reaffirms that the JD-8 Mine remains on track for potential approval and mobilization in mid-2026, with targeted production restart in the second half of 2026.
