Retiring Republican has sponsored legislation to codify Trump’s executive orders on the nuclear industry

Abandoned uranium mine waste has been a big deal for decades, but almost no one had an inkling about what we should do to solve the problem. The scale of the challenge is huge, with various estimates ranging between 1 and 8 billion tons of uranium mining waste rock spread over more than 10,000 sites, nearly all of which are in western states and Native American sovereign nations. The Navajo Nation is the jurisdiction with the biggest burden – a substantial portion of the waste is on Navajo lands and spread over 500 or more sites.

DISA Technologies Inc has shared an update. The company announced that Co-Founder and COO John Lee will speak at the American Exploration & Mining Association’s Annual Meeting at the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, Nevada. Lee will present DISA’s High-Pressure Slurry Ablation (HPSA) technology, highlighting its application in processing legacy mine sites to recover critical minerals and generate value from previously discarded materials. The AEMA event is positioned as a key industry gathering focused on strengthening the United States’ domestic energy and minerals supply chain.

Uranium American Resources Inc. (OTC:UARI) said it has advanced technical work at its Stateline uranium-vanadium project in Colorado’s La Sal Creek mining district, completing a major digitization effort of historic drilling and outlining multiple mineralized trends across the property.

This collaboration involves the use of DISA’s High Pressure Slurry Ablation technology, with Mandrake receiving a gross revenue share from the sale of recovered minerals. The agreement is supported by strong U.S. government backing for domestic mineral recovery, highlighting its potential impact on the company’s operations and contribution to the strategic mineral production in the U.S.

BACA, N.M. – During a recent meeting, the Eastern Navajo Land Commission (ENLC) received federal updates on uranium-cleanup initiatives, new technology proposals, and ongoing negotiations with U.S. agencies regarding abandoned uranium mines across eastern Navajo communities.

In the race to decarbonize and secure America’s energy future, nuclear power is once again in the spotlight. From advanced reactors to fusion breakthroughs, the promise of nuclear energy is clear.

BACA - For decades, the only option considered for cleaning up low-level radioactive waste left behind on the Navajo Nation by uranium and vanadium profiteers was to consolidate it and cap it in place after the more radioactive principal threat waste had been removed. But technology has advanced since the Cold War, and executive orders signed by President Donald Trump following his Jan. 20 declaration of a "National Energy Emergency" could give Navajo an advantage in helping further the president's policy of making America energy dominant. The tribe hopes to support the national energy security effort by supplying critical minerals from residual wastes at 523 abandoned uranium mine sites across the reservation. In addition to uranium, vanadium also was mined on the reservation. Both are among 60 minerals added to the Final 2025 List of Critical Minerals published Nov. 7 in the Federal Register.

Today, Senators Mark Kelly (D-AZ) and Cynthia Lummis’ (R-WY) Legacy Mine Clean Up Act advanced out of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. The bipartisan, bicameral legislation would cut bureaucratic red tape and hold the federal government accountable for better coordinating efforts to clean up abandoned uranium, copper, gold, and other hardrock mines that continue to pose environmental and public health risks. The bill—which passed the Senate unanimously last Congress—is now eligible to receive a vote on the Senate floor.

VANCOUVER, BC, July 2, 2025 /CNW/ - Great Northern Energy Metals Inc. ("GNEM" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a definitive Waste Treatment and Use Agreement ("WTUA") with DISA Technologies, Inc. ("DISA") to facilitate access, treatment, and recycling of minerals from abandoned mine waste ("AMW").

Disa Technologies Inc. provides innovative, sustainable solutions for mineral processing and remediation through its patented High-Pressure Slurry Ablation (HPSA) technology. HPSA processes solid feed material in slurry form, propelled by high pressure pumps through opposing nozzles that generate impinging jets within a collision housing. This process induces particle-to-particle collisions in a high energy zone, creating intergranular fractures along grain boundaries. In our batch scale and continuous operating testing, we have found that controlling key processing variables such as nozzle velocity, slurry solids percentage, and the number of passes can allow for controlled size reduction and maximum mineral liberation. Since 2018, Disa Technologies has demonstrated the versatility of HPSA by testing it on diverse materials, including phosphate, copper, uranium, vanadium, zinc, rare earth elements, lithium, nickel, mineral sands, gold tailings, and more. The intent of this paper is to present an overview of our test results describing in detail impacts on size reduction, recovery, and grade with a focus on HPSA's adaptability across ore types. Looking forward, it explores the potential to process materials such as DR-grade iron, clay, PGMs, bauxite, and various tailings. Additionally, it examines planned advancements in HPSA technology, including optimized nozzle spacing, higher capacity models, improved tonnage-to-footprint ratios, enhanced maintenance features, and expanded nozzle configurations.
