Peninsula Energy is an evolving uranium developer focused on advancing its significant Lance Project into a long-lasting, sustainable uranium enterprise. Located in Wyoming, a top-tier mining and uranium jurisdiction, the Lance Project is one of the most expansive US uranium endeavors, boasting a JORC (2012) Resource of 53.7Mlbs¹ U3O8, encompassing the Ross, Kendrick, and Baber regions. Uniquely, Lance is the sole US-based uranium project sanctioned to utilize the cutting-edge low-pH ISR process, a trusted and efficient method for uranium production. As a testament to its capacity, over 60% of the world's uranium produced in 2021 used this method. Moreover, Lance's production capabilities are notable, with an existing plant output of 0.82Mlbs U3O8 annually, licensed potentials of up to 3Mlbs U3O8 per year, and Peninsula anticipates restarting commercial activities by mid-2023.

Peninsula prides itself on its seasoned team, skilled in uranium technology, development, and operations, and has already achieved significant milestones in staffing, technicality, regulation, and pre-operation preparations. The company also possesses a well-established contract portfolio, ensuring sales for up to 5.25 million lbs U3O8 until 2033, catering to major utilities both in the US and Europe. With the global emphasis on uranium as an eco-friendly energy source, propelled by worldwide decarbonization initiatives, once Lance becomes operational, Peninsula is set to play a pivotal role in powering a more sustainable future.
