Uranium Resources, Inc. is a company that focuses on exploring, developing and mining uranium properties. The company owns uranium properties in South Texas, where they have two licensed ISR (in-situ recovery process) processing facilities: Kingsville Dome and Rosita. The company also has 183,000 acres (74,000 ha) of mineral holdings in New Mexico, where they get a NRC license to produce up to 3 million pounds (1.4 kt) of uranium annually. The mineral properties in New Mexico have been left in the state of undeveloped. It’s estimated that the mineral in New Mexico contains more than one hundred million pounds U3O8 of in-place mineralised uranium material.[4][5][6]
