WHITE MESA UTE, Utah -- "In a powerful and inspiring day of solidarity and action on October 17th, White Mesa Ute Community members of the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe were joined by Indigenous People and allies from across the southwest in the 10th Annual White Mesa Spiritual Walk and Protest against Energy Fuels and their uranium 'mill' and mines. About 250 people participated, including tribal members from the #UteMountainUte Tribe, #Havasupai, #Navajo Nation, #AcomaPueblo, #GilaRiver Indian Community, and #Quechan.

"Located in southern #Utah, the White Mesa Ute Community is next to Energy Fuels’ uranium mill that has become an international #RadioactiveWaste disposal site. Amid the #Trump administration and State of Utah’s push to boost #uranium and #NuclearPower, more uranium is being trucked from the Energy Fuels’ La Sal Mines Complex about 60 miles to the mill, and at least 72 new mining claims have been staked on lands cut from Bears Ears National Monument. Uranium ore is also shipped from Energy Fuels’ #PinyonPlain mine near the #GrandCanyon, a mine opposed by the Havasupai Tribe and many other Indigenous and non-Native allies."

#WhiteMesaUte Invite Public to Join #SpiritualWalk to Protest #UraniumMill, Oct. 4, 2025

by #CensoredNews, September 20, 2025

Excerpt: "The rally and spiritual walk is to protect the White Mesa Ute Community’s health, water, air, land, culture, and sacred sites from the nearby #EnergyFuels uranium mill and show community opposition to the mill operating as an international dumping ground for radioactive waste from North America, Japan, and Europe. All relatives and allies welcome.

"The rally on Saturday, October 4, 2025, 11 a.m. MDT will be followed by a spiritual walk to the Energy Fuels uranium mill, about five miles on relatively flat pavement. Wear comfortable shoes and bring plenty of water. Limited number of vehicle seats available for elders and those not able to walk the whole way.

"The White Mesa Ute Community Center in White Mesa, Utah, is just south of Blanding, Utah off Highway 191. The community center is on the west side of the highway. Turn west at the gas station
and go one block south.

"The Ute Mountain Ute Community of White Mesa and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe are concerned about #contamination from the nearby #UraniumMill and desecration of sacred sites.

"The uranium mill, owned by Energy Fuels Resources, is also where uranium ore from controversial #UraniumMines, including #PinyonPlain Mine, near the #GrandCanyon, is sent for processing; #NativeAmerican tribes, including the #HavasupaiTribe, strongly oppose that mine. As far away as #Madagascar, #IndigenousPeople strongly oppose Energy Fuels’ operations. The October 4 protest and walk are sponsored by the #WhiteMesaConcernedCommunity and the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe."

[Video] Voices from #WhiteMesa, Part 2: "We Are One People"

"On Oct. 12, members of the #UteMountainUte Tribe held their annual #SpiritualWalk opposing the #WhiteMesaUraniumMill in Southern #Utah.

"The mill, which processes uranium and other substances, sits on sacred land just north of the tribe’s reservation boundary and is the only one of its kind in the U.S.

"Local organizers with White Mesa Concerned Community and their supporters organize the walk each year to raise awareness about the mill and demand it be shut down and cleaned up.

"Participants rallied before walking five miles to the mill site. Unicorn Riot heard from participants and organizers along the route."

[Thread] #Indigenous #SpiritualWalk in #Utah #Protests Last Conventional #UraniumMill

By Alex Binder, Unicorn Riot November 1, 2024

#WhiteMesa, #Utah — "The #WhiteMesaMill was built in 1979 with plans to process #uranium ore for 15 years. With the facility now well past its initial operational lifespan, the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, other Indigenous tribes and allies continue their call for it to be shut down and cleaned up. On October 12, over 75 people participated in an annual spiritual walk in opposition to the mill, which is the last conventional uranium processing plant in operation in the United States.

"Participants met at the White Mesa Community Center in southern Utah at 11 a.m., then walked five miles north on the shoulder of U.S. Highway 191 to rally outside the mill. Throughout the hours-long walk, Unicorn Riot spoke with attendees about their opposition to the 45-year-old mill owned by Energy Fuels Inc."

"The Spiritual Walk began with a prayer song acknowledging the #Creator this morning, and the reminder that this is Indigenous land. Walkers were asked to respond if they were called on to stop the trucks bringing in #radioactive loads, with the reminder that the radioactive trucks are endangering everyone on the haul route."

Isaiah 59:1-2

1 Behold, the Lord’s hand is not shortened,
That it cannot save;
Nor His ear heavy,
That it cannot hear.

2 But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden His face from you,
So that He will not hear.
