Nuclear Energy Demand Projected to Grow

NEW YORK, April 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Nuclear power has become a major producer of electric energy. The U.S. Department of Commerce estimates the global civil nuclear market to be valued between $500 and $740 billion over the next 10 years (by 2026) and to have the potential to generate more than $100 billion in U.S. exports and thousands of new jobs. In addition, the Global Energy Outlook Report projects that nuclear power will have to double by 2050 for the world to meet international climate change goals and the energy needs of an expanding global population, which is expected to grow to 10 billion by 2050.

A report by Forbes indicates the potential of USA's involvement in the nuclear energy technology market. "The global market for nuclear reactors is at least $75 billion per year, even more if you include lucrative fuel and maintenance contracts (see figure). American products use to dominate this sector, but Russia, Korea, and China have passed us. The U.S. could easily compete for these billion-dollar contracts using advanced reactors. This would employ tens of thousands of American engineers, manufacturers, and tradesmen, and open up entirely new markets for the United States. But only if we move fast to finish development and construction of these new designs," Forbes reports.

Anfield Energy Inc. (OTCQB: ANLDF) is also listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker (TSX-V: AEC). Today the company announced breaking news that it has, "engaged BRS Engineering to complete a mineral resource report for the Taylor Ranch uranium project in Wyoming.  The Taylor Ranch project was purchased from Uranium One Americas Inc. ("Uranium One") in September 2016 and is one of the 25 uranium mining properties acquired in the Black Hills, Powder River Basin, Great Divide Basin, Laramie Basin, Shirley Basin and Wind River Basin areas of Wyoming. As a key part of this 2016 transaction, Anfield also signed a Resin Processing Agreement with Uranium One whereby Anfield would process up to 500,000 pounds per annum of its mined material at Uranium One's Irigaray processing plant in Wyoming.

Corey Dias, Anfield CEO, states "We are pleased to update and further delineate another uranium resource from amongst the 25 uranium projects acquired in Wyoming.  Including the recently-commissioned Charlie Project resource report, this will be only the fifth NI 43-101 resource report commissioned for our Wyoming projects. So far, Anfield's three completed resource reports have increased its Indicated uranium resource portfolio by approximately 3.6 million pounds and its Inferred uranium resource by approximately 4.5 million pounds. Given that 80% of Anfield's Wyoming projects have yet to be addressed in terms of resource delineation, we believe a significant pipeline is emerging. Importantly, Anfield remains on course to deliver on its strategy of creating a long-term viable uranium production complex in Wyoming as a vital part of its portfolio of U.S. uranium assets".

About The Taylor Ranch Project - The Taylor Ranch Project is located in the Powder River Basin Uranium District in portions of Campbell, Converse, and Johnson Counties, Wyoming. Mineral rights at the Taylor Ranch Project include mining claims, Wyoming State leases, and private leases totaling some 6,080 acres. Regional exploration drilling programs were conducted in the 1970's by the American Nuclear-Tennessee Valley Authority partnership, Conoco Minerals, and Kerr McGee.  During this time ISR was not a common mining practice for the recovery of uranium and the discovery of shallower mineralization on the nearby Moore Ranch became the focus exploration to the detriment of deeper deposits such as Taylor Ranch. Subsequently, Power Resource Inc. began property acquisition at Taylor Ranch in 1993 and later formed a joint venture with Cotter Corp.  A 1996 internal summary report by PRI titled "Properties, Ore Reserves and Resources", states the "Wide spaced exploration has intercepted ore grade mineralization and defined several thousand feet of mineralized roll fronts systems at depths of 800 to 1,000 feet."

In 2007-2008 Uranium One drilled 224 rotary drill holes with a total footage of 203,525, at a cost of approximately $694,000 US, on the Taylor Ranch Project.  An internal report titled "Taylor Ranch Drilling Report" dated May 15, 2008, provides a summary of drilling results.  Uranium One did not complete a 43-101 compliant mineral resource estimate for the Taylor Ranch Project.  Drilling identified mineralized trends in the 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 sandstone units of the Wasatch Formation with the majority of higher grade intercepts in the 30 and 40 sand units. Drill results are summarized in the following table.
