49、ation Rights Agreement are subject to lock-up restrictions that prohibit themfrom selling such securities at this time,subject to certain exceptions.See thesection of this prospectus entitled“Description of Securities.”Some of the shares of Common Stock being registered for resale were acquired by t
50、heSelling Securityholders for prices considerably below the current market price of theshares of Common Stock.Even though the current market price($8.89 closing price onMay 14,2025)is below the$10.00 per unit price offered in Inflection Pointsinitial public offering,certain Selling Securityholders m
51、ay have an incentive tosell because they have purchased their Common Stock or Private Placement Warrants ateffective prices significantly lower than our public investors or the current tradingprice of the Common Stock or Public Warrants and may profit significantly so evenunder circumstances in whic
52、h our public securityholders or certain other SellingSecurityholders would experience losses in connection with their investment.Foradditional information,see“Risk FactorsRisks Relating to Ownership of OurSecuritiesCertain of the Selling Securityholders acquired their Common Stock ata price that is
53、less than the market price of the Common Stock as of the date of thisprospectus,may earn a positive rate of return even if the price of the Common Stockdeclines and may be willing to sell their Common Stock at a price less thanstockholders that acquired Common Stock in the public market.”The shares
54、of Common Stock being offered for resale by the Selling Securityholderspursuant to this prospectus represent approximately 68.7%of our total issued andoutstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis(assuming and after giving effectto the issuance of 18,500,000 shares of Common Stock upon exercise

57、hare)and the Warrants being offered for resale pursuant tothis prospectus represent approximately 32.4%of our current total outstandingWarrants.Upon expiration of the contractual lock-up restrictions mentioned above anddescribed in the section entitled“Certain Relationships and Related PersonsTransa
58、ctions,”the Selling Securityholders,including Michael Blitzer,our Chairman,and entities controlled by Michael Blitzer(Inflection Point Fund I,LP andInflection Point Holdings II LLC)(who would hold approximately 25.5%of our totalissued and outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis calculated
59、in the mannerset forth in the preceding sentence),entities controlled by Newtyn Management,LLC(Newtyn Partners,LP and Newtyn TE Partners,LP)(who would hold approximately 16.0%of our total issued and outstanding Common Stock on a fully-diluted basis calculatedin the manner set forth in the preceding
60、sentence),Tready Smith,one of ourdirectors,and entities controlled by Tready Smith(Bayshore Rare Earths II,LLC,Bayshore Rare Earths,LLC,Bayshore Capital Holdings Group,LLC and M.Tready A.Smith Revocable Trust)(who would hold approximately 6.7%of our total issued andoutstanding Common Stock on a full
61、y diluted basis calculated in the manner set forthin the preceding sentence),and an affiliate of Mordechai Gutnick,one of ourdirectors,The Critical Minerals Trust(who would hold approximately 5.9%of ourtotal issued and outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis calculated in themanner set for
62、th in the preceding sentence)and,will be able to sell all of theirResale Securities registered for resale hereunder for so long as this registrationstatement of which this prospectus forms a part is available for use.Given thesubstantial number of Resale Securities being registered for potential res
63、ale by theSelling Securityholders pursuant to the registration statement of which thisprospectus forms a part,the sale of such Resale Securities by the SellingSecurityholders,or the perception in the market that the Selling Securityholders mayor intend to sell all or a significant portion of such Re
64、sale Securities,couldincrease the volatility of the market price of our Common Stock or Public Warrants orresult in a significant decline in the public trading price of our Common Stock orPublic Warrants.The Selling Securityholders acquired,or have the option to acquire,the Common Stock covered by t
65、his prospectus at prices ranging from less than$0.01per share to$7.00 per share.By comparison,the offering price to publicstockholders in Inflection Points IPO was$10.00 per unit,each of which consistedof one Class A Ordinary Share and one-half of one redeemable public warrant ofInflection Point.Con
66、sequently,certain Selling Securityholders may realize apositive rate of return on the sale of their Resale Securities covered by thisprospectus even though the market price of Common Stock is currently$8.89(based onthe closing price on May 14,2025)which is below the$10.00 per unit price offeredin th
67、e Inflection Point IPO and public stockholders and/or warrantholders mayexperience a negative rate of return on their investment.2025/5/21 15:00sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1970622/000121390025045537/ea0237790-01.htmhttps:/www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1970622/000121390025045537/ea0237790-01.htm5/2
68、09Table of ContentsWe will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Resale Securities by theSelling Securityholders.We will receive the proceeds upon exercise of Warrants andthe Preferred Investor Warrants to the extent such Warrants or Preferred InvestorWarrants are exercised for cash.Assuming
69、 the exercise of all outstanding Warrantsfor cash,we would receive aggregate proceeds of approximately$212.8 million.However,we will only receive such proceeds if all Warrant holders fully exercisetheir Warrants for cash.The exercise price of the Warrants is$11.50 per share.Assuming the exercise of
70、all outstanding Preferred Investor Warrants for cash,wewould receive aggregate proceeds of approximately$63.4 million.However,we willonly receive such proceeds if all Preferred Investor Warrant holders fully exercisetheir Preferred Investor Warrants for cash.The current exercise price of thePreferre
71、d Investor Warrants is$7.00 per share.We believe that the likelihood thatholders determine to exercise their Warrants or Preferred Investor Warrants,andtherefore the amount of cash proceeds that we would receive,is dependent upon themarket price of our Common Stock.If the market price for our Common
72、 Stock is lessthan the exercise price of the Warrants or Preferred Investor Warrants(on a pershare basis),we believe that holders will be very unlikely to exercise any of theirWarrants or Preferred Investor Warrants,and accordingly,we will not receive anysuch proceeds.There is no assurance that the
73、Warrants or Preferred Investor Warrantswill be or will remain“in the money”prior to their expiration or that the holderswill exercise their Warrants or Preferred Investors Warrants.Holders of Warrants andPreferred Investor Warrants have the option to exercise their respective warrants ona cashless b
74、asis in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement and thePreferred Investor Warrants(as applicable).To the extent that any warrants areexercised on a cashless basis,the amount of cash we would receive from the exerciseof such warrants will decrease.We will bear all costs,expenses,and fees i
75、n connection with the registration of theshares of Common Stock and Private Placement Warrants.The Selling Securityholderswill bear all commissions and discounts,if any,attributable to their respectivesales of the shares of Common Stock and Private Placement Warrants.Our shares of Common Stock and P
76、ublic Warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Stock MarketLLC(“Nasdaq”)under the symbols“USAR”and“USARW,”respectively.On May 14,2025,the closing price of our Common Stock was$8.89 per share and the closing pricefor our Public Warrants was$1.535 per warrant.We are an“emerging growth company”and a“smaller r

193、c rare earth magnetsupply chain that supports the future state of energy,mobility,and nationalsecurity in the UnitedStates.USARE is developing a rare earth sintered neo magnet(“neo magnet”)manufacturing plant in Stillwater,Oklahoma,and intends toestablish domestic rare earth and critical minerals su
194、pply,extraction,andprocessing capabilities to both supply its magnet manufacturing plant and marketsurplus materials to third-parties.Rare earth magnets are critical to variousbusiness sectors and industries,including the defense,automotive,aviation,industrial,medical and consumer electronics indust
195、ries,among others.USARE isplanning to take a broad approach to the industries it serves with the intention ofproviding high quality sintered neo magnets to a variety of industries andcustomers.The Companys intention is to take a structured approach to building outits supply chain to supply feedstock
196、 to its magnet facility.While our vision is toultimately vertically integrate our operations,we will be evaluating each stage ofthe magnet supply chain to find the optimal approach to maximizing value from mineto magnet.USARE controls rights to a deposit of rare earths,the Round TopDeposit,in West T
197、exas.While this deposit could potentially provide significantvalue to USARE and its operations over the long term,USARE initially will befocused on partnering with ex-China suppliers and building or buying thecapabilities we need to profitably manufacture high quality neo magnets in theUnited States
198、.USAREs long-term approach from sourcing rare earths,inaddition to other critical minerals such as gallium,to producing finished neomagnets assists in strengthening the United States control over criticalsupply chains such as the supply of rare earth minerals and magnets and thusreducing domestic re
199、liance on foreign,particularly Chinese,imports.USAREs focuson developing domestic rare earth production aligns with national priorities,offering the future potential of a sustainable and secure domestic supply ofmaterials critical to key industries.The Business CombinationOn August21,2024,Inflection

308、he accuracy of any forward-looking forecasts,prospects orbusiness outlook or plans.We have not commenced production of neo magnets at our Stillwater Facility,and wemay not be able to secure the necessary feedstock,offtake,or equipment in order toeconomically produce neo magnets,including from the Ro
309、und Top Project.We have notrealized any revenues to date from the sale of neo magnets or critical minerals,rareearth minerals,or lithium,and our operating cash flow needs have been financedthrough the incurrence of debt and equity raises and not through cash flows derivedfrom our operations.As a res
310、ult,we have little historical financial and operatinginformation available to help you evaluate our performance.Any profitability in thefuture from our business will be dependent upon economical development of theStillwater Facility and production of neo magnets,which is subject to numerous riskfact
311、ors.Accordingly,we may not realize profits,including in the medium to longterm.Additional expenditures are required to construct,complete and installadditional neo magnet production equipment and our neo magnet production capabilitiesmight not be able to fully utilize the nameplate capacity of the e
312、quipment.Inaddition,we have no operating history upon which to base estimates of futureoperating costs and capital requirements.Actual operating costs and economic returnsof any and all of our Projects may materially differ from the costs and returnsestimated,and accordingly our financial condition,
313、results of operations and cashflows may be negatively affected.In the near term,our development and growthdepends on our ability to:(i)successfully produce magnets at the StillwaterFacility;(ii)secure one or more reliable sources of rare earth feedstock at pricesthat are acceptable and attractive to
314、 us;and(iii)secure one or more neo magnetcustomers that are willing and able to purchase our neo magnets at prices that areexpected to be profitable for us.Delays in the completion of the Stillwater Facilityor the Round Top Project could have a material adverse effect on our business,results of oper
315、ations and financial condition.We may not be able to generate positive cashflow from our expected futurebusiness operations.Our long-term success will depend on implementingthe business strategy and operational plan of the Company,as well as ourability to generate revenues,achieve and maintain profi
316、tability anddevelop positive cash flows from our magnet production.Our ability to continue with our business plan to produce and sell neo magnets andour future plans regarding the Round Top Project,ultimately depends on our abilityto generate revenues,achieve and maintain profitability,and generate
317、positive cashflow from our operations.We cannot assure you that our Projects will result inachieving and maintaining profitability and developing positive cash flows.Theeconomic viability of the Companys future business activities has many risks anduncertainties including,but not limited to:a signif

322、vities and increase developmentcosts.The production of neo magnets and mineral exploration and mining by their natureinvolve significant risks and hazards,including environmental hazards,as well asindustrial and mining accidents.These include,for example,occupational hazards,leaks,ruptures,explosion
323、s,chemical spills,seismic events,fires,cave-ins andblockages,flooding,discharges of gasses and toxic substances,contamination ofwater,air or soil resources,unusual and unexpected rock formation affectingmineralization or wall rock characteristics,ground or slope failures,rock bursts,wildfires,radioa
324、ctivity and other accidents,incidents,or conditions resulting frommining or manufacturing activities,including,among others,blasting and thetransport,storage and handling of hazardous materials.In particular,the productionof neo magnets involves the use of heavy equipment and operations at hightempe
325、ratures.These operations can be dangerous and safety incidents in theseoperations may cause damage to and loss of equipment,injury or death,monetarylosses and potential legal liabilities.Any such incidents could have a materialadverse effect on our business,operating results and financial condition.
326、Furthermore,there is the risk that relevant regulators may impose fines and workstoppages for non-compliant production or mining operating procedures andactivities,which could reduce or halt production or mining until lifted.Theoccurrence of any of these events could delay or halt production,increas
327、e productioncosts and result in financial and regulatory liability for us,which could have amaterial adverse effect on our business,results of operations and financialcondition.In addition,the relevant environmental authorities have issued and mayissue administrative directives and compliance notice
328、s in the future,to enforce theprovisions of the relevant statutes to take specific anti-pollution measures,continue with those measures and/or to complete those measures.The authorities mayalso order the suspension of part,or all of,our operations if there is non-compliance with legislation.Contrave
329、ntion of some of these statutes may alsoconstitute a criminal offense and an offender may be liable for a fine orimprisonment,or both,in addition to administrative penalties.As a result,theoccurrence of any of these events may have a material adverse effect on our business,results of operations and
