Uranium
Capabilities
Testing procedures, pilot plants, and demonstration plants.
For a uranium project to achieve success, it is imperative to accurately interpret test work results and scale them up effectively to meet commercial demands. Precise design criteria for processes and equipment need to be established, alongside the selection of suitable construction materials. Engaging a reliable partner to define rigorous test-work parameters and actively contribute to their implementation is essential for project efficacy.

Industry challenges
Mining uranium presents a distinctive challenge due to radiation exposure. Uranium metal, concentrates, and by-products, including radioactive radon gas, waste disposal, introduce a unique set of risks.
Stringent safety, environmental, and social standards are crucial in uranium mining, even with limited budgets.
The extraction of high-grade uranium deposits presents technical obstacles like groundwater contamination and the necessity for radiation protection. Innovative ground-freezing techniques and mechanized underground-mining methods are essential for addressing these challenges.
Efforts are ongoing to develop more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly processes for mining lower-grade uranium deposits using open-pit and underground methods.
The uranium mining industry has a history of cost and schedule overruns. Adequate planning during the study phase is vital to avoid challenges later on, especially when resources are constrained. Cutting corners early on can lead to costly issues during project implementation, offsetting any initial savings.
