KYRGYZSTAN PRODUCES 36.4 TONNES OF URANIUM IN Q1

摘要

Kyrgyzstan's Kara-Baltinsky uranium-producing enterprise produced 36.4 tonnes of uranium in the first quarter of 2008, a source with the mining industry department at the Kyrgyz State Agency for Geology and Mineral Resources told Interfax. The enterprise, in which UralPlatina Holding that consolidated the Renova Group's gold mining assets acquired a 72.3 percent stake in February 2007, did not produce uranium last year. It was reported earlier that uranium had not been produced at the enterprise since 2005 given a lack of resources.
