# ASP Isotopes plans to acquire Renergen to build a leading global enterprise in critical materials

According to the Zhitong Finance APP, advanced materials company ASP Isotopes (ASPI.US) announced on Tuesday that it has reached a letter of intent to acquire the South African listed company Renergen. Renergen is an energy company focused on the production of helium and liquefied natural gas, and this acquisition will create synergies in the business advantages of both parties in the field of key strategic materials.

It is reported that Renergen's core asset is the Virginia gas project, which has a helium concentration more than ten times the global average. The project has received $40 million in funding support from the U.S. government through the International Development Finance Corporation and is expected to further obtain $500 million in priority debt financing from the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation, as well as a $250 million credit line from Standard Bank of South Africa, to expand the capacity of its South African plant.

Previously, ASP Isotopes also signed a uranium enrichment supply agreement with TerraPower, which is invested by Bill Gates. Stimulated by this news, the stock rose more than 16% in pre-market trading on Tuesday.

According to the terms of the agreement, TerraPower will provide ASP Isotopes with multiple tranches of term loans to partially fund its new uranium enrichment facility being built in Pelindaba, South Africa. Once completed, the facility will have the capacity to produce 15 metric tons of high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) annually.

In addition, ASP Isotopes has agreed to supply HALEU for the first fuel core of TerraPower's sodium plant in Wyoming, with plans to provide a total of 150 metric tons between 2028 and 2037
