Company Overview

Westwater Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ: WWR) is a Houston‐based mineral development company focused on advancing sustainable sources of battery‐grade graphite for the lithium‐ion battery market. The company’s primary asset is the Coosa Graphite Project in east‐central Alabama, where Westwater is working to establish a fully integrated, U.S.‐based supply chain for natural spherical graphite. By leveraging in‐house purification and spheronization technology, Westwater aims to produce high‐purity graphite suitable for electric vehicle and stationary energy storage applications.

Originally founded as a diversified natural resources company, Westwater Resources has realigned its strategy toward critical battery minerals. The company completed a major acquisition of graphite processing know‐how and has advanced its permitting and feasibility studies for Coosa. In addition to Coosa, Westwater holds exploration licenses and partnerships intended to broaden its resource base in North America, reflecting growing demand for domestically sourced anode materials.

Westwater’s management team brings extensive experience in mining engineering, project development and capital markets. James E. Spellman serves as President and Chief Executive Officer, guiding the company through its transition to battery‐grade graphite production. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Westwater is positioning itself as a U.S. supplier in a market largely reliant on overseas graphite sources, aligning with industry and government initiatives to secure critical mineral supply chains.
