World uranium reserves in 2010. Uranium reserves are reserves of recoverable uranium, regardless of isotope, based on a set market price. The list given here is based on Uranium 2020: Resources, Production and Demand, a joint report by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the International Atomic Energy Agency. [1] Figures are given in metric ...
Uranium mining in the United States produced 224,331 pounds (101.8 tonnes) of U 3 O 8 in 2023, 15% of the 2018 production of 1,447,945 pounds (656.8 tonnes) of U 3 O 8. The 2023 production represents 0.4% of the uranium fuel requirements of the US's nuclear power reactors for the year.
The fourth represents an US DOE estimate of the total reserves of uranium in Earth's crust in the concentrations that are of interest at present mining techniques and uranium prices. The largest square represents the total potential of recoverable uranium with future technologies in the Earth's crust, estimated by NEA and IAEA to be at least 4 ...
The largest uranium producer in the United States is ramping up work just south of Grand Canyon National Park on a long-contested project that largely has sat dormant since the 1980s ...

Doubling the price of uranium would increase the identified reserves as of 2013 to 7.64 million tons. [174] Over the decade 2003–2013, the identified reserves of uranium (at the same price of US$130/kg) rose from 4.59 million tons in 2003 to 5.90 million tons in 2013, an increase of 28%.
Canada's uranium miners, confident that only they can meet U.S. demand for the element after Russian supply curbs, have accelerated output and forward contracts to supply U.S energy companies, but ...
