UPDATE – SuperCritical Materials Licenses US Department of Energy Pat…

SuperCritical Materials has licensed a DOE-developed uranium extraction technology from seawater, positioning itself to supply fuel for advanced reactor deployments as US nuclear capacity accelerates. The technology addresses an emerging bottleneck in domestic uranium supply that threatens to constrain the scaling of next-generation reactors. Advanced reactors are being deployed faster than uranium supply can keep up—and SuperCritical now holds the only licensed path to seawater extraction at scale in the US. If you're building anything that consumes nuclear fuel or critical materials downstream, your supply constraint just moved to someone who has a ten-year head start and a DOE patent.
