Public Comment Period Opens for Proposed New Mexico Uranium Mine

Public Comment Period Opens for Proposed New Mexico Uranium Mine

Energy Fuels, Inc., a Colorado-based company, has initiated a 30-day public comment period for its proposed uranium mine near Mount Taylor in New Mexico. This marks a significant step in the permitting process for the Roca Honda Mine, which the company has sought to establish within the Cibola National Forest boundaries in McKinley County for over a decade. The company submitted a 273-page reclamation plan in late May to the state Mining and Minerals Division. The United States Forest Service is preparing an environmental impact statement as part of the federal permit application. If approved, the mine is projected to operate for approximately 21 years, with 11 years dedicated to mineral production and the remainder to reclamation and monitoring. Company officials, including environmental manager Nick Martin and Senior Vice President of Regulatory Affairs Misael Cabrera, have acknowledged the historical environmental and public health impacts of uranium mining in the state and have pledged a commitment to ...

U.S. Department of Energy's PROSPECT Initiative Commits Over $180 Million to Rebuild America's Mining Workforce

U.S. Department of Energy's PROSPECT Initiative Commits Over $180 Million to Rebuild America's Mining Workforce

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced a significant federal commitment of over $180 million towards mining education and workforce development. This investment includes up to $100 million through the DOE's PROSPECT initiative. The primary goal of this funding is to double the number of graduates in mining, minerals, and associated supply-chain fields within two years. This initiative provides universities with a crucial opportunity to expand their talent pipelines as new domestic mining and processing projects advance. The investment is part of a broader effort to rebuild America's mining workforce, which is essential for supporting the nation's critical mineral independence and supply chain security.

Nevada Lawmakers Reintroduce Bill to Aid Human Trafficking Survivors with Air Travel

Nevada Lawmakers Reintroduce Bill to Aid Human Trafficking Survivors with Air Travel

U.S. Representatives Susie Lee (D-Nev.) and Mark Amodei (R-Nev.) have reintroduced the Jimmy Deal Trafficking Survivors Assistance Act. This bipartisan legislation aims to help survivors of human trafficking access air travel to escape their traffickers and receive care. A companion bill was introduced in the Senate by U.S. Senators Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) and Jerry Moran (R-Kan.). The bill is named after James 'Jimmy' Deal, a late Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officer who worked to raise awareness of human trafficking at Reno-Tahoe International Airport and assisted victims. Many survivors lack the necessary identification documents for air travel, as traffickers often control these documents. The proposed act seeks to facilitate air travel for these individuals, enabling them to return to their families and communities. This legislation was initially proposed in 2023 but did not pass during that congressional term.

U.S. Representative Dina Titus Advances Bill to Restore Full Gambling Loss Deductions

U.S. Representative Dina Titus Advances Bill to Restore Full Gambling Loss Deductions

U.S. Representative Dina Titus, a Democrat from Nevada, has successfully advanced the FAIR BET Act out of a House committee. This legislation aims to restore the 100% tax deduction for gambling losses, which was reduced to 90% by last year's reconciliation package, known as the One Big Beautiful Bill. Under the current 90% deduction, individuals who report equal winnings and losses would still owe taxes on 10% of their winnings, effectively taxing 'phantom money' they never truly won. Representative Titus is now urging Congressional leaders to bring the measure to the House floor for approval before January 1, 2027, to prevent the reduction from taking effect. The change has been criticized by members of Nevada's congressional delegation, including U.S. Representative Steven Horsford, who argue it could negatively impact professional gamblers and casual sports bettors, potentially driving them to unregulated offshore markets. Several major casino operators, including MGM Resorts, Caesars Entertainment, Wyn...

U.S. Government Backs $150 Million Investment to Revitalize Nevada Tungsten Mine

The U.S. government is supporting a significant investment of $150 million to restart the Springer Tungsten Complex in Nevada. This initiative involves Blue Moon Metals, The Elmet Group, and EQ Resources, who have entered a binding letter agreement. The investment package, totaling $150-$175 million, aims to reactivate Springer's ammonium paratungstate (APT) plant. The Elmet Group will hold a 70% interest in the processing joint venture and operate the plant, while Blue Moon Metals will retain 20% ownership and full control of the Springer mine and mill. EQ Resources will supply 4,000 tonnes of contained tungsten trioxide (WO3) in concentrate over eight years from the plant's commissioning, with a specific allocation of input capacity during the initial years. This funding is part of a broader $450 million government investment in Elmet, with $150 million specifically designated for the Springer transactions. The project targets a restart of the mine and mill in late 2027, followed by the APT plant in the ...
