Anfield CEO Cory Diaz said: In addition, the addition of Marques Juan Tafoya, our largest single uranium project to date in terms of resource size, significantly expands our uranium resource base.

“At the time of global nuclear glunsa dance, and the shortage of worldwide uranium, we believe that it is extremely important to pursue advanced uranium deposits that promote short -term uranium production. We believe that Kazakhstan shifts to the east side to support China’s strong nuclear development plan. The important part of the country’s utility uranium is increasingly crisis. This scenario is highlighting the opportunity for US Uranian producers to be doubtful.

“To that end, we will continue to pursue both a short-term strategy centered on our advanced Utah and Colorado uranium and vanadium projects, Velvetwood, West Slope and Slickrock, backed by our wholly-owned Shooting Canyon plant, one of three licensed conventional plants in the United States, and a long-term production strategy that includes the acquisition of complementary assets that may provide additional uranium and vanadium resources for our Shooting Canyon plant. , we believe Marquez Juan Tafoya will complement our existing portfolio of assets and serve as part of our long-term uranium production strategy.”

About Anfield

Anfield is a uranium and vanadium development and short-term producer committed to becoming a leading energy-related fuels supplier by creating value through sustainable and efficient asset growth. Anfield is a public company listed on the TSX-Venture Exchange (AEC-V), the OTCQB Marketplace (ANLDF) and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (0AD). Anfield focuses on traditional asset centers, as summarized below.

Arizona/Utah/Colorado – Canyon Mill Shooting

A key asset in Anfield’s portfolio is Shooting Canyon Mill in Garfield County, Utah. The Shootering Canyon Plant is strategically located in one of the United States’ historically most prolific uranium producing regions and is one of only three licensed uranium plants in the United States.

Anfield’s traditional uranium assets consist of mining interests and state leases in southeastern Utah, Colorado and Arizona, covering areas where uranium has been mined and explored in the past. Anfield’s existing uranium assets include the Velvet Wood Project, Slick Rock Project, West Slope Project, Frank M. Uranium Project and Findlay Tank Breccia Pipe. I just finished an integrated NI 43-101 PEA for the Velvet Wood and Slickrock projects. The PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too geologically speculative to apply economic considerations that can be classified as Mineral Reserves, and as a result there is no certainty that the preliminary economic valuations included will materialize. All conventional uranium assets are located within a 200 mile radius of the shooting mill.
