CENTENNIAL, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 10, 2018--
Westwater Resources, Inc. ("Westwater" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: WWR) is pleased to announce that President and Chief Executive Officer, Christopher M. Jones will be presenting at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence's 'Graphite + Anodes 2018' Conference, on October 22nd and 23rd in Newport Beach, California. Mr. Jones is scheduled to present at noon on Tuesday, October 23(rd) and will provide a Company overview and an update on Westwater's graphite business.
"We are pleased to share our made-in-USA battery-graphite story at Benchmark's annual conference," commented Mr. Jones. "In our opinion, the demand for natural battery graphite and high-performance conductivity-enhancement products is growing and outpacing production capacity, which underscores the importance of this conference and Westwater's role in the American battery-graphite supply chain."
Westwater's portfolio of energy materials--graphite, lithium, and uranium--are on the List of Critical Minerals, which was finalized and published in May 2018 by the U.S. Department of the Interior. These minerals were included due to their importance to the security and economic prosperity of the United States.
Westwater is working to develop a domestic battery-graphite business, as well as to explore for lithium in the western United States. Westwater also holds a portfolio of uranium production and exploration properties in Texas and New Mexico.
