This page is part of our public exclusion list — a transparency tool that shows which companies we screen out and why. It is not investment advice, and it is not an accusation. It is a statement of values.
Westwater Resources, Inc. is flagged by Cruelty Free Investors as a company that exploits animals. The available evidence does not specify the nature of this commercial exploitation. Westwater Resources is an energy technology company focused on producing battery-grade natural graphite.
Westwater Resources, Inc. was historically a uranium mining company, operating in-situ leach (ISL) facilities in Texas. On March 4, 2019, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) certified the completion of the third phase of site decommissioning at one of Westwater's former ISL projects. The decommissioning of ISL uranium mines is a regulated process required to address residual groundwater contamination from mining operations, specifically to restore water quality to pre-mining conditions. The company's legacy uranium assets were sold to enCore Energy in September 2020.

The Naughty List
A digest of changes to our exclusion list — new additions, removals, and the evidence behind them. We review the list continuously as new evidence surfaces.
Companies appear on our exclusion list based on our investment judgment — not because they've done anything illegal. This is a difference of values and opinion, not an accusation of wrongdoing. Exclusion does not constitute a recommendation against investing in any company, and absence from the list does not constitute a recommendation to invest.
