Exhibit 99.1

Westwater Resources Provides Commercial Update

Centennial,

CO – April 1, 2026: Westwater Resources, Inc. (NYSE American: WWR), an energy technology and critical minerals company

focused on developing battery-grade natural graphite (“Westwater,” “Westwater Resources,” or the “Company”),

today announced a commercial update.

On March 31, 2026, SK On Co., Ltd. notified the

Company of its decision to terminate the Products Procurement Agreement (“Agreement”) originally executed in February 2024.

The Agreement represented the purchase of a portion of the planned Phase I production capacity at the Kellyton Graphite Plant (“Kellyton”).

“SK On’s decision reflects the challenging

and evolving environment our customers are navigating,” said Frank Bakker, Chief Executive Officer of Westwater Resources. “While

market conditions and tariffs remain dynamic, our continued focus is on executing and advancing our projects. We continue to progress

construction at Kellyton and believe we are well positioned to support the domestic production of battery-grade graphite.”

SK On has indicated a willingness to consider

future agreements, subject to updated terms and conditions.

Westwater is advancing its commercial strategy,

including providing product samples through its qualification line at Kellyton to support ongoing customer evaluation and qualification

processes. In parallel, the Company is progressing construction and operational readiness at Kellyton, with work continuing across key

systems and equipment.

The Company continues to expect initial production

of battery-grade graphite within approximately 12 months of securing the remaining project financing.

About Westwater Resources, Inc.

Westwater Resources,

Inc. (NYSE American: WWR) is a critical minerals and energy technology company advancing a vertically integrated, mine-to-market platform

for battery-grade natural graphite in the United States. The Company’s platform is anchored by the Coosa Graphite Deposit in Alabama,

the largest natural flake graphite deposit in the contiguous United States, and the Kellyton Graphite Plant, a processing facility designed

to produce coated spherical purified graphite (CSPG), a key material used in lithium-ion battery anodes. For more information, visit
