Westwater Applauds Recent Actions by The White House on Electric Vehicle and Critical Mineral Tariffs

15.05.2024  |  Business Wire

Westwater Resources Inc. (NYSE American: WWR), an energy technology and battery-grade natural graphite company ("Westwater Resources"), today acknowledged its support of the recent actions taken by the United States Trade Representative and the White House, related to electric vehicle ("EV") and critical mineral tariffs.

On May 14, 2024, the White House announced the results of its four-year review of Section 301 tariffs on Chinese products. Notably, the announcement includes an increase from 25% to 100% on imported Chinese EVs in 2024, and a 25% tariff on natural graphite imports from China beginning in 2026.

"As Westwater is 100% focused on producing battery-grade natural graphite anode material in the United States for use in non-Chinese EVs, we support actions that continue to aid in establishing a domestic supply chain," said Terence J. Cryan, Executive Chairmen of Westwater Resources. "We believe these actions send a strong signal that the US is committed to on-shoring its supply chain for critical minerals such as graphite and supporting the domestic production of batteries and EVs."

"These tariffs are just what the new and critically important U.S.-based natural graphite industry needed to compete with the monopoly that exists in China today and only strengthen Westwater's value proposition as we move to secure additional customers," said Jon Jacobs, Chief Commercial Officer of Westwater.
