Westwater Resources' President and CEO Christopher M. Jones commented, "This milestone achievement is a critical step in developing our battery graphite business. We have shown that one of the key products in our business plan � purified micronized graphite (ULTRA-PMG�) � can be produced using proprietary processes that we intend to utilize in our pilot program later this year. Successful performance testing demonstrates that we can manufacture our ULTRA-PMG� as a premium-grade, conductive enhancement material for all types of batteries at larger scale."
