Characterization team hard at work

Our Characterization Operations team is collecting surface soil samples as part of their early site characterization work at the 30-acre White Wing Scrap Yard. This parcel will be the site of the recently announced Orano USA multi-billion-dollar uranium enrichment facility. Pictured are workers using hand augers to collect samples from the top two feet of surface soil. The information gained from this early characterization will inform more extensive, deeper sampling planned later this year.
