The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued final determinations imposing steep tariffs and duties on graphite-based anode materials imported from China, which could impact Westwater Resources Inc. The new measures include a 66.68% countervailing duty and a 93.5% anti-dumping duty, in addition to existing IEEPA, Section 301, and Section 232 tariffs, bringing total penalties to approximately 220%. These actions follow investigations into Chinese subsidies and pricing practices and are pending a final injury determination by the U.S. International Trade Commission expected in March 2026. If upheld, the tariffs will remain in effect for at least five years.
