Nuvemco - Investing in Secure U.S. Supply of Uranium and Vanadium
Enabling Clean Energy
New Discoveries
Uranium/Vanadium Ore
Products and People
The base process is hard rock mining of mineralized sandstones containing uranium and vanadium. This is sold for milling, separation, and sale of u3o8 (yellowcake) and v2o5 (black flake).  

To improve mineral recovery, reduce environmental footprints, cut truck traffic, and improve costs, we have been active in scientific proof of concept testing of advanced mining technologies.  These near commercial deployment..  

Nuvemco works closely with key faculty, students, and PhD candidates of University of Arizona and leading U.S. mineralogists. 
Nature is not done in Naturita, Colorado!  New mineral discoveries including Okieite (pictured above), Szilagyiite, and Bluestreakite, and recently discovered anomalies of rare earth elements, are under scientific investigation.
Jointly deposited in the Salt Wash Member of the Morrison Sandstone, the vanadium to uranium ratio generally is at least 5:1.  End products are triuranium oxtoxide (u3o8), or yellowcake, and vanadium pentoxide (v2o5).
