Mining in Australia

[edit]

The Mining in Australia article will need a summary. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 10:17, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Proportion of reserves

[edit]

It may have 23% of the total reserves, but "minister for resources and energy Martin Ferguson" claimed last week that Australia has "around 40% of the world's commercially viable uranium".[1] AlmostReadytoFly (talk) 12:45, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I saw that comment by Ferguson too. Presumably the difference is "commercially viable" vs "reserves". –Moondyne 12:48, 27 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From the World Nuclear Association:

Known Recoverable Resources* of Uranium 
Australia 1,243,000 23%
World total 	5,469,000
* Reasonably Assured Resources plus Inferred Resources, to US$ 130/kg U, 1/1/07, from OECD NEA & IAEA, Uranium 2007: Resources, Production and Demand ("Red  Book").

Assessment comment

[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Uranium mining in Australia/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The article has grown swiftly from a bunch of links and is still growing. Good on ya Moondyne!

Need to include:

  • activity of the Aussie anti-nuke and Aboriginal land rights movements as a separate section
  • ext links to govt sites associated with uranium mining
  • table of export volumes of ore
