enCore Energy Approved to Begin Infrastructure for Dewey Burdock Uranium Project
enCore Energy announced that the Bureau of Land Management, or BLM, has issued a final decision and approved the Dewey Burdock Uranium Project, authorizing the company to commence infrastructure construction for the Dewey Burdock Uranium In-Situ Recovery - ISR - Project in Southwest South Dakota. With the execution of the final Environmental Assessment and Finding of No Significant Impact, the BLM authorizes enCore's wholly owned subsidiary Powertech to construct initial ancillary infrastructure on approximately 240 acres of BLM-managed public land within the larger 10,580-acre Dewey Burdock Project. The authorized work under the BLM EA includes construction of portions of the primary and secondary access roads, light-use roads, four groundwater monitoring wells, and overhead power lines. The Dewey Burdock Project, wholly owned by enCore, is an advanced-stage uranium project located in Custer and Fall River counties in South Dakota. The Project will recover uranium from subsurface sandstone ore bodies through ISR technology.
