Shares of Lightbridge climbed Tuesday after the company said it signed a memorandum of understanding with Oklo to co-locate a Lightbridge commercial-scale fuel fabrication facility at Oklo's proposed commercial fabrication facility.
The stock was up 17% to $7.24 in morning trading. Shares have surged 55% since the beginning of the year.
The developer of nuclear fuel technology said the deal with Oklo, a nuclear power and fuel recycling company, includes plans for collaboration in recycling nuclear waste.
"The potential co-location of our commercial fuel fabrication facilities could offer significant synergies in terms of upfront capital expenditures and ongoing operating costs," Lightbridge Chief Executive Seth Grae said.
