Abstract: Recent data show that Kazakhstan is on course to become the world's largest producer of uranium in 2009. Total output in Kazakhstan is anticipated at around 14,000 tonnes in 2009, making it the largest producer in the world, and the authorities have ambitious targets to push output up further. Uzbekistan also seeking to increase output, while increased global demand might even make hitherto unexploited mines in Kyrgyzstan viable. The ambitions don't stop there, with both Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan seeking to move beyond simply extracting uranium. |
