OVERVIEW
Many IAEA Member States without current uranium production activity have expressed interest in uranium mining, in order to meet their or other countries’ energy needs.
To introduce or reintroduce uranium mining and processing, a wide range of issues needs to be considered. With the assistance of experts from around the world, the IAEA is preparing a guide setting out a...

Asia-Pacific region is the major consumer of mineral raw materials including uranium and other its associated mineral resources materials. However, production of the required raw materials which are required for many sectors including energy production and agro-industries are not sufficient to meet the demand. This is many due to predominantly low grade, unconventional and relatively...
