Thank you for joining us for our teleconference and webcast this afternoon. We are required to draw the attention of all of our participants to the legal disclaimers contained in this afternoon's slide presentation, which apply equally to our oral presentation today.
At slide two, you will find legal disclaimers with regard to forward-looking statements, risk factors and projections, as well as other cautionary notes to investors. We ask that you read and consider these disclaimers carefully before investing in our shares. As well, risk factors inherent in forward-looking statements and projections are set forth and discussed in the company's annual report on Form 10-K, filed on March 6, 2023, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange on EDGAR and with the Securities Regulatory Authorities in Canada on SEDAR.
I would now like to introduce and turn the webcast presentation over to our Chairman and CEO, John Cash.
John Cash
Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to Ur-Energy’s second quarter 2023 earnings call. It has been an exciting quarter for the company, as we have successfully initiated ramp up in our second mine unit at Lost Creek and as demand for nuclear fuel and global geopolitical uncertainty continue to support the uranium price. We have revamped our corporate presentation for the purposes of this call to focus more on our finances and geopolitical risk. I hope you find it informative and useful.
The photos here are of the ion exchange portion of Lost Creek plant and the first shipment of yellowcake in the fall of 2013. We expect to get back to shipping uranium this fall. We encourage participants to review the disclaimer presented here and our filings, so you are aware of the risks associated with investing in the uranium industry and uranium mining in general and our projects.
