Velvet-Wood Uranium Projected Receives Expedited Permitting

VANCOUVER – Anfield Energy Inc. announced that the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) has selected its Velvet-Wood uranium project in Utah for expedited permitting as part of the federal government’s national response to the energy emergency. Velvet-Wood is the first uranium project to be prioritized under newly established emergency procedures that accelerate the environmental review process for critical energy infrastructure. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has been directed to complete its review of the project within 14 days.

Corey Dias, CEO, said, “We are very pleased that Velvet-Wood has been selected for expedited permitting. As a past-producing uranium and vanadium mine with a small environmental footprint, Velvet-Wood is well-suited for this accelerated review. This marks a major milestone for Anfield as we look to play a meaningful role in rebuilding America’s domestic uranium and vanadium supply chain and reducing reliance on imports.”
