ROSWELL, Ga.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Ux Consulting Company, LLC (UxC), the nuclear industry’s leading provider of information services, is pleased to announce publication of the new and expanded 2009 Uranium Suppliers Annual. The report, also referred to as the Uranium Bible, contains 450 pages of comprehensive data and information on all of the world’s uranium suppliers, including detailed sections on 21 primary producers, 19 planned producers and 108 junior exploration companies.

In this latest version, an extensive update has been made to the production cost estimates for all uranium projects held by primary and planned producers. This reflects changes to key input factors such as exchange rates, sulfuric acid prices, power prices and labor costs. Meanwhile, the number of junior exploration companies covered in the annual has been expanded by over 40% from 76 companies to 108 companies, with greater coverage of Africa and Australia.

“The Uranium Suppliers Annual is truly a must have for all utilities, suppliers, government agencies, and uranium investors. Within the last couple of years, many producers have re-evaluated their uranium projects and exploration programs as the uranium price has fallen to one-third of its peak in mid-2007. Although much of the future expansion in uranium production will come from Kazakhstan and Africa, these regions also carry greater risks that are examined in the report. Knowing the uranium landscape at both the project and supplier level is critical as nuclear energy grows and the pending U.S.-Russia HEU Agreement comes to a close,” said UxC Vice President, Uranium, Nick Carter.

Some of the key information included in the Uranium Suppliers Annual are:

• Production Costs
• Future Production Forecasts
• Supplier/Project Risk Matrices
• Mill Capacities
• Project Reserves/Resources (including ownership, mine type and average ore grade)
• Marketing Strategies

The Uranium Suppliers Annual is available for immediate purchase. The standard price of this report is US$5,000.00 payable upon receipt of invoice by check, credit card or wire transfer. A discounted price of US$3,500.00 is available to subscribers of UxC’s Uranium Market Outlook report. A full table of contents is available in Adobe PDF format for review.
