Als ze beginnen met atoombommen te gooien, dan zal jullie aandeel wel omhoog gaan.

Nee hoor, atoombommen --> zwaar verrijkt uranium. En als er een kernoorlog komt, wat ik al helemaal niet verwacht. Dan zal dit juist meer weerstand oproepen tegen kernenergie.

One commodity that didn’t make the new CRB, and may
not for some time since it isn’t publicly traded, is uranium. I
think nuclear power, despite its stigma, will prove essential
to help narrow the gap between spiraling demand for electricity
and constrained supply. My partner Scott Wright just
wrote an essay on uranium posted on our website detailing
the explosive rise in uranium prices. Up over 300% since it
bottomed in 2000, the spectacular uranium bull gains have
already dwarfed those of gold, silver, and most other commodities.
And with global mined supply only able to meet
58% of worldwide uranium demand today and stockpiles of
the stuff swiftly dwindling, higher prices are almost certain.

Jaarlijks verbruiken we veel en veel meer uranium dan we uit de grond halen:

In western Colorado and eastern Utah, where salt wash deposits and sandstone hold uranium ore, there's a scramble on for mining claims, a demand for processing facilities and a clamour for miners.

The latest race for uranium yellowcake, spurred by plans for increased nuclear power across the globe, follows years when claim activity was nearly nil.

The 435 nuclear reactors in the world, including 104 in the United States, need 180 million pounds of uranium annually, but only 100 million pounds have been produced in recent years. China and India are leading a worldwide push for more nuclear power with ambitious plans for new power plants. President Bush wants to increase the 20 percent of U.S. power produced in nuclear plants.

With that growing demand, if no new supplies were mined, domestic uranium would run out in three years.

"No doubt about it, the world needs more uranium," said Tom Pool, chairman of International Nuclear Inc. in Golden, Colo.

More than 8,500 mining-claim permits have been filed in eight uranium-rich Colorado and Utah counties this year, according to records compiled by The Denver Post.

To meet the demand for even more claims to catch up to this nuclear need, the Department of Energy is preparing, for the first time since 1974, to put 13,600 acres of uranium-laced western Colorado lands up for bid next year.

Interest is focused on the Uravan mineral belt, a swath of western Colorado desert that holds a unique combination of the steel-hardener vanadium mingled with uranium.

Those rushing to file new claims or activate old ones include Canadian companies, which control some of the richest uranium deposits in the world, domestic mining companies and families in western Colorado that have been chasing uranium and vanadium payoffs for generations.

"I see this boom not being a spike like in the early '90s. And I see it being more sustained than it was in the '70s and '80s," said Ed Cotter, the contract project manager for uranium leasing for the Department of Energy.

Despite the jostling to grab the 75 million pounds of uranium and 282,000 pounds of vanadium estimated to remain on the Colorado Plateau, this boom is not expected to be another willy-nilly and dangerous race to get as much uranium and vanadium out of the ground as quickly as possible.

"Companies are planning in a much more effective way for the future. They're making sure when you ramp up production, you ramp up carefully," said Stuart Sanderson, director of the Colorado Mining Association.

A number of factors – increased permitting requirements and a lack of manpower and equipment – won't allow a rush to uranium production.

Environmental and safety regulations have also moved into a new era – with some projects needing approval from a dozen agencies – since the last real uranium boom in the 1970s. And each mine start-up brings expensive bonding requirements to make sure cleanup is accomplished.

"It has to be done right this time," said Richard Dorman, vice president of exploration for Universal Uranium Ltd. of Winnemucca, Nev. Dorman has worked through three uranium boom periods.

The new regulations and growth pressure explain why only four mines are operating in remote canyons in the west end of Colorado's Montrose County nearly two years after uranium and vanadium prices began to surge. Uranium brings about $30 a pound and vanadium, about $19. That's up from $7 and $2 in 2001.

Cotter Corp. owns the mines operating in Colorado and is the country's only licensed mill taking newly mined ore. Cotter plans to open four more mines in Montrose and San Miguel counties by year's end. Three other mining companies with claims near the Colorado towns of Uravan and Gateway are inking agreements with Cotter to have ore processed at its Canon City mill.

Permitting and exploratory work is being done at dozens of other mines, but full-scale production is on hold while the Universal Uranium Corp. mill near Blanding, Utah, decides if it will accept new ore this fall.

Uranium mining projects planned around corporate boardrooms as well as rural kitchen tables are expected to move into high gear when more milling opportunities open up.

The Shumway family, which has been mining off and on in Utah for three generations, is anxious to get a fourth generation into it.

"Our kids are excited. They want to learn how to mine," said Deryl Shumway, who, with his brother Mitch, is preparing to reopen some of their leased parcels near Blanding.

The Shumways can rely on a network of relatives for employees, but companies are struggling to find miners.

The uranium industry has been mostly dormant since the 1980s, so nearly a generation of miners has been lost. Cotter has been luring miners from Nevada and Montana. A recent Cotter safety training class included a fireman, a truck driver and a mechanic. Some employees have been drawn from farms where the profits don't equal the average $70,000 to $80,000 annual wage that miners earn.

As the nuclear industry heats up, it hasn't drawn a loud outcry from environmental groups, some say because the oil and gas boom pressing into more populated areas is drawing all the attention.

Jim Martin, executive director of Western Resource Advocates, said the potential for a resurgence in the nuclear industry needs a thoughtful response from environmentalists as well as a more controlled and responsible start-up by the industry. "At the moment we're agnostic on nuclear. We spend most of our time worrying about global warming," he said.

One of the overriding problems that remains to be dealt with since the last boom is where to put the waste. Colorado is riddled with 20,000 abandoned mines with potentially hazardous materials. Also, the spent fuel from nuclear reactors still needs a home. Plans to build an underground repository for such waste at Nevada's Yucca Mountain are stymied. No other new repositories are planned.

Cameco Joint Ventures with De Beers at Aberdeen Lake

By Canadian Press
02 Aug 2005 at 03:39 PM EDT

TORONTO (CP) -- De Beers Canada has signed a deal giving uranium giant Cameco an option to take part in the South African company's mining project at Aberdeen Lake in the eastern Arctic.

The property in Nunavut is made up of 14 mineral permits covering about 2,300 square kilometers about 150 kilometers west of Baker Lake.

De Beers has been prospecting for diamonds in that part of Nunavut since 1998 and has land holdings which hold potential deposits of other minerals, the Toronto company said.

''De Beers Canada is pleased to be associated with the leading player in the uranium industry,'' Richard Molyneux, president and CEO of De Beers Canada, said Tuesday.

''We remain focused on diamonds, but are alert to multi-commodity value in our exploration portfolio. This agreement adds a dimension to our relationship with Cameco. We are active joint venture partners in Saskatchewan on the Fort a la Corne project.''

Under the agreement, Cameco (TSX:CCO) will have the option to spend $1.8 million on uranium exploration over four years to earn a 60 per cent interest in the Nunavut property. If Cameco earns 60 per cent, the companies will form a joint venture and Cameco will be the operator and will have marketing rights for De Beers' share of uranium production.

De Beers' exploration budget this year is $40 million. Its current land holdings in Canada are 235,000 square kilometres. Last October, the company signed a two-year data sharing agreement with Inco on Baffin Island to develop potential nickel deposits.

De Beers has two diamond projects under development in Canada, Snap Lake in the Northwest Territories and Victor in northern Ontario.

In trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange on Tuesday, Cameco shares rose 66 cents to $58.15, a gain of more than one per cent.

BHP Billiton grootste uranium producent ter wereld. Sinds de bull in olie schieten de uraniumgerelaterede bedrijven in beurskoers omhoog. Logisch, er klinken steeds meer geluiden om meer aan kernenergie te gaan doen.

Price hit new 52-week high ($31.15)

Kyrgyz Protesters Block Road to Gold Mine

Kyrgyz Protesters Block Road to Gold Mine Operated by Canadian Company

BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan (AP) -- Protesters have been blocking a road to Kyrgyzstan's largest gold mine for a week, hindering shipments to the Canadian-operated mine, a company spokeswoman said Wednesday.
About 30 protesters have been blocking the road to the Kumtor mine in the Central Asian nation's remote northeast since last Thursday, demanding compensation for a cyanide spill into a river in the village of Barskoon in 1998, Kumtor Operating Company spokeswoman Tynara Shaildayeva said.

She said that the protesters are also calling for the mine's closure, but said their demands were unfounded because the company had already paid about US$2.3 million (euro1.9 million) to the Kyrgyz government to compensate for environmental damage.

Shaildayeva said that production has not been affected by the roadblock, but that the company has been having difficulties delivering supplies and getting workers to the mine.

On Tuesday, the Kyrgyz government set up a commission made up of senior officials to resolve the incident.

Kumtor is owned and operated by Centerra Gold Inc., a joint venture set up last year with Canada's Cameco Corp. to boost the impoverished ex-Soviet republic's revenues from the mine.

Canada-based Centerra is the biggest foreign investor in this impoverished ex-Soviet nation of 5 million.

BHP is zowiezo een fijn bedrijf als je het over diversificatie hebt. Het is enorm gediversificeerd. Zie de business summary op Yahoo! Finance:

Uraniumprij maar weer eens hoger. Uranium doet het geweldig. Niet verwonderlijk met de hoge energieprijzen. Kernenergie wordt gezien als één van de serieuze vervangers van olie als energiebron.
Voor beleggingen in uranium zijn er een aantal mogelijkheden. Eén er van is beleggen in BHP Billiton, de grootste uranium producent ter wereld.
