Since acquiring the uranium assets from Westwater Resources Inc. on December 30, 2020, enCore Energy has aggressively executed its strategy to become the newest in-situ recovery ("ISR") uranium producer in the U.S. with operational highlights including: - Acquisition of mineral and surface properties in known uranium historic resource areas, including several that are partially permitted and previously licensed Texas projects, located within 75 miles of the Rosita Central Processing Plant.

- Preparation of applications to the State of Texas for the commencement of confirmation drilling;
- Completion of surface reclamation and decommissioning work at the former Vasquez ISR project. The Company is now working with the State of Texas to finalize and release the bonding as sites are returned to their prior use;
