The mounded material usually contains low-grade mineralized material and/or waste rock produced from open-pit or underground mines. The solutions are collected after percolation is completed and processed to recover the valued components. Notes: Capacity for 1st Quarter 2013. An operating status of ‘‘Operating’’ indicates the mill was producing uranium concentrate at the end of the period. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration: Form EIA-851A and Form EIA-851G, ‘‘Domestic Uranium Production Report.’’ than in 2011, from six facilities: one mill in Utah (White Mesa Mill) and five ISL plants (Alta Mesa Project, Crow Butte Operation, Hobson ISR Plant/ La Palangana, Smith Ranch-Highland Operation, and Willow Creek Project). Nebraska, Texas, and Wyoming produced U concentrate at the five ISL plants in 2012. The U.S. EIA has added new information (Tables 11, 12) that now includes County and State location of existing and planned mills and in situ leach (ISL) plants. U.S. U mines produced 4.3 mil- lion pounds (1.9 million kg) U3O8 in 2012, 5% more than in 2011. Six underground mines produced U ore during 2012, one more than during 2011. Ura- nium ore from underground mines is stockpiled and shipped to a mill, to be processed into U concentrate (a yellow or brown powder, otherwise known as yellowcake). Additionally, five ISL mining opera- tions produced solutions containing U in 2012 that was processed into U concentrate at ISL plants. Overall, there were 11 mines that operated during part or all of 2012. Total shipments of U concentrate from U.S. mills and ISL plants were 3.9 million pounds (1.8 million kg) U3O8 in 2012, 2% less than in 2011. U.S. producers sold 3.6 million pounds (1.6 million kg) U3O8 of U concentrate in 2012 at a weighted-average price of $49.63 per pound U3O8. At the end of 2012, the White Mesa mill in Utah was operating with a capacity of 2,000 short tons (1,814 metric tonnes) of ore per day. Shootaring Canyon Uranium Mill in Utah and Sweetwater Uranium Project in Wyoming were on standby with a total capacity of 3,750 short tons (3,402 metric ton- nes) of ore per day. There is one mill (Pin ̃on Ridge Mill) planned for Colorado. Five U.S. U ISL plants were operating at the end of 2012, with a combined capacity of 10.8 million pounds (4.9 million kg) U3O8 per year (Crow Butte Operation in Nebraska; Alta Mesa Project, Hobson ISR Plant/La Palangana in Texas; Smith Ranch-Highland Operation and Willow Creek Project in Wyoming). Kingsville Dome and Rosita ISL plants in Texas were on standby with a total capacity of 2.0 million pounds (0.9 million kg) U3O8 per year. Lost Creek Project and Nichols Ranch ISR Project were under construction in Wyoming. There are seven ISL plants planned in New Mexico, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming (U.S. Energy Information Administration 2013c).
