(The Center Square) – The Navajo Nation and Energy Fuels are now hashing out details to figure out the best path forward on uranium ore transportation from the Pinyon Plain Mine to White Mesa Mill in Blanding, Utah.

“I’m glad that EFRI and Navajo Nation have begun conversations about their path forward, and that EFRI has agreed to extend their voluntary pause on uranium ore transport through Navajo Nation lands while these good-faith negotiations continue,” Gov. Katie Hobbs stated on Friday afternoon.
