Item 8.01 Other Events

On March 13, 2024, Ur-Energy Inc. (the Company) announced its decision to build-out its wholly-owned Shirley Basin in situ recovery uranium mine in Carbon County, Wyoming. The project has all major permits and licenses. The Company estimates that final design and detail engineering work, ordering of materials and equipment and construction of the satellite plant facility and initial wellfield development will take approximately 24 months to complete.

The satellite plant will consist of ion exchange, wastewater and groundwater restoration circuits. A detailed economic analysis can be found in the Technical Report Summary “Shirley Basin ISR Uranium Project, Carbon County, Wyoming, USA” as amended, March 11, 2024, filed with the Company’s Form 10‑K/A Annual Report for 2023, March 12, 2024.

The timing to complete build out of Shirley Basin as currently projected is an estimate only, dependent upon supply chain, labor and other variables. The technical and economic viability of the Shirley Basin Project as set forth in the Shirley Basin Technical Summary Report, including mineral resource estimates, life of mine, costs of production, are estimated projections based on current expectations that, while considered reasonable by management at this time, inherently involve a number of significant business, economic and competitive risks, uncertainties and contingencies.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This Form 8-K may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable securities laws regarding events or conditions that may occur in the future, including the timing of development and construction activities at the Shirley Basin project; the components of the proposed satellite plant; and the technical and economic viability of the Shirley Basin Project as set forth in the Shirley Basin Technical Report Summary. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, are considered to be forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations that, while considered reasonable by management at this time, inherently involve a number of significant business, economic and competitive risks, uncertainties and contingencies. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements express or implied by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, capital and other costs varying significantly from estimates; the grade and recovery of ore which is mined varying from estimates; production rates, methods and amounts varying from estimates; delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other project approvals; inflation; changes in exchange rates; fluctuations in commodity prices; delays in development and other factors described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and other public filings made by the Company at www.sec.gov. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management as of the date hereof and Ur-Energy disclaims any intent or obligation to update them or revise them to reflect any change in circumstances or in management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions that occur in the future.
