(TheNewswire)

Vancouver, BC – February 11, 2025 – TheNewswire - Recharge Resources Ltd. ("Recharge" or the "Company") (RR: CSE) (RECHF: OTC) (SL5: Frankfurt) is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Lawrence Segerstrom, M.SC., M.B.A., Q.P. to the Board of Directors.

Mr. Segerstrom is a bilingual Professional Geologist with more than 40 years of technical, operational, and business experience, including exploration, mine geology and operations, and 20 years as a senior executive in United Sates, Indonesia, Chile, and Mexico. His past management positions include Chief Operating Officer of Paramount Gold and Silver Corp. in Mexico, and Manager of Geology of the Grasberg Mining District for Freeport-McMoRan in Indonesia.

The President and Chief Executive Officer of Recharge Resources, David Greenway states: “We are thrilled to welcome Mr. Lawrence Segerstrom to the board of Recharge. With the incoming U.S. administration prioritizing domestic energy supply to power the nation, we believe now is an opportune time to invest in domestic mining opportunities, particularly in the resource-rich Colorado Plateau. We look forward to engaging with stakeholders in the exciting developments ahead and invite everyone to join us in this next chapter of the Recharge’s journey.”

Mr. Segerstrom has been involved in several discoveries, including leading the teams that discovered and developed new resources of more than 750,000 ounces of gold and 60 million ounces of silver with Paramount Gold & Silver (PZG), and new ore reserves totalling 3.4 billion pounds of copper and 3.6 million ounces of gold with Freeport. Mr. Segerstrom holds a M.Sc. in Economic Geology from the University of Arizona, a M.B.A. in Global Management, and is a Qualified Person under Canadian National Instrument 43-101.

Lawrence Segerstrom stated: "I am excited to join Recharge as a Director and support the review of its uranium properties. With shifting government policies, the Company is well-positioned to seize the opportunity to explore and develop domestic uranium supplies. Both political parties recognize the importance of advancing the nation’s ‘Greenification’ efforts by prioritizing sustainable energy initiatives. President Donald Trump’s commitment to streamlining permitting processes and increasing investment in nuclear energy further strengthens the outlook for Recharge’s expansion into strategically located uranium projects across North America."

The company is actively conducting a strategic review of multiple uranium projects, evaluating both historical deposits and new opportunities across Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, as well as in Canada’s prolific Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan and surrounding regions.

In January 2025, President Donald Trump issued two executive orders aimed at bolstering domestic energy production, with significant implications for the uranium sector. The " Declaring a National Energy Emergency " order highlighted the nation's inadequate energy supply and infrastructure, emphasizing the need for a reliable and diversified energy portfolio to support economic and national security. It called for the expedited identification, leasing, and development of domestic energy resources, including uranium. Complementing this, the " Unleashing American Energy " order underscored the importance of encouraging energy exploration and production on federal lands and waters. It advocated for establishing the United States as a leading producer and processor of critical minerals, such as uranium, to create jobs, strengthen supply chains, and reduce reliance on foreign sources. These directives reflect the administration's commitment to revitalizing the nuclear energy sector and enhancing energy independence.

U.S. Uranium Supply Crisis: Rising Demand, Limited Domestic Production, and a Push for Energy Independence

The United States currently imports approximately 40.5 million pounds ("Mlbs") of U 3 O 8 annually, with only 2.1 Mlbs—roughly 5%—sourced from domestic suppliers. Additionally, the outgoing administration introduced bipartisan legislation aimed at prohibiting uranium imports from Russia, further emphasizing the need for secure, homegrown supply chains. With global uranium demand now surpassing mined production and no immediate solutions on the horizon, conditions are primed for a significant resurgence in U.S. uranium development. 1

The current surge in uranium demand is driven by its growing competitiveness as a fuel for electric power generation, now rivaling fossil-fuel-powered plants. Current estimates suggest that existing uranium reserves may be insufficient to meet domestic market needs in the coming years. Notably, this private market operates independently of government uranium purchases, highlighting a strong, standalone demand for uranium as a vital energy source.

A Step Towards a Low-Carbon Future

In a major move toward sustainable energy, Amazon has invested in U.S.-based nuclear energy developer X-energy, marking a significant commitment to low-carbon power solutions for its expansive digital infrastructure. This investment aligns with a broader trend among tech giants seeking reliable, clean energy sources. Google recently joined the nuclear sector by commissioning several small modular reactors (SMRs) from Kairos Power, while Microsoft has secured a 20-year power agreement from the Three Mile Island nuclear plant, contingent on its planned restart by Constellation Energy. These strategic steps underscore the tech industry’s growing focus on nuclear energy as a critical component of its carbon-reduction goals.
