Elevate Uranium U pgrade pilot plant to be shipped to NamibiaHighlights

  • U-pgrade™ Demonstration/Pilot Plant (“Plant”) is due to complete final factory testing and is scheduled to be shipped to Namibia in early August 2025.
  • The Plant is expected to arrive in October, with operations commencing during November.
  • Operations will process at least 60 tonnes of uranium material, demonstrating the performance of the U-pgrade™ process for commercialisation.
  • It is expected to take approximately four to five months to operate the Plant and analyse the results.
  • Elevate’s Uranium Senior Metallurgist relocating to Namibia to oversee operations.

ASX-listed Elevate Uranium has announced a significant step in proving up its U-pgrade™ beneficiation process through operation of the Pilot Plant.  The plant is due to complete final factory testing this week in Perth and is scheduled for shipment to Namibia in early August.  Operation of the plant will demonstrate the performance of  U-pgrade by beneficiating at least 60 tonnes of uranium ore sourced from the company’s Namibian projects.

Elevate Uranium's CEO, Murray Hill, commented: "The U-pgrade™ Pilot Plant marks a pivotal step in Elevate’s development journey.  Our team has worked diligently to ensure its readiness, and its operation in Namibia is central to validating the process at a continuous, scalable size.  As we look to further optimise the development pathway in Namibia, the data and insights collected will be key to the technical studies which we aim to start during the period of Pilot Plant operation.  We’re extremely pleased with progress to date and we look forward to this next phase and reporting on future milestones as they are achieved.  QAQC analysed results from operation of the Plant will take four to five months to collate and report."
