Our Letlhakane Uranium Project in Botswana, Africa, is one of the largest undeveloped uranium projects, with a resource base of 142Mt at 363ppm U3O8 for 113.7Mlb contained uranium (RPEEE basis); 50% of which is Measured & Indicated.

An updated Scoping Study completed in March 2025 demonstrated annual uranium production of ~3Mlb U3O8 over a 10-year Life of Mine.

Lotus has advanced trade-off studies to minimise acid consumption and eliminate solvent extraction, to improve Letlhakane’s capex and operating metrics. A further infill drill program is aimed at bringing additional resources into the Measured & Indicated categories, supporting a PFS expected to be completed later in 2026.

Lotus is focused on creating value for its shareholders, its customers and the communities in which it operates, working with local communities to provide meaningful, lasting impact. Lotus is focused on our future.
