NexGen Energy (NYSE:NXE) Ltd., listed on the NYSE American under the symbol NXE, is a Canada-based uranium exploration and development company headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia. Since its founding in 2014, the company has focused on acquiring and advancing high-potential uranium assets in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, a region renowned for some of the world’s highest-grade uranium deposits.
The centerpiece of NexGen’s project portfolio is the Rook I property, home to the Arrow uranium deposit discovered in late 2017. Arrow has been the subject of extensive drilling campaigns, resource delineation and multiple technical studies, including preliminary economic assessments and feasibility analyses. NexGen’s development plan emphasizes an underground mining approach and on-site processing to produce uranium concentrate, with an emphasis on minimizing environmental impact and optimizing project economics.
NexGen was founded by a group of uranium industry veterans who brought experience from leading mining and exploration companies. Under their guidance, the company has progressed through key milestones such as independent resource certification, environmental baseline studies and regulatory submissions. NexGen maintains active engagement with local communities and Indigenous stakeholders, fostering partnerships that support both project advancement and regional development.
Led by President and Chief Executive Officer Mark E. Fitz and Chairman Mark S. Selby, NexGen continues to explore and expand its land holdings within the Athabasca Basin. The company’s strategic priorities include augmenting its resource base, refining its mine design and securing the necessary permits for production. With its high-grade assets and seasoned leadership team, NexGen Energy is positioned to play a significant role in meeting the growing global demand for low-carbon nuclear fuel.
