Navoiuran, a leading uranium producer from Uzbekistan, has signed a €9 million contract with Kazakhstan’s TOO Logistic Centre for the transportation of uranium concentrate to France, according to inbusiness.kz citing EURASIA TODAY.
Under the agreement, TOO Logistic Centre will transport 500 containers of uranium concentrate from the port of St. Petersburg to the commune of Malvési in southern France. The total cargo volume is expected to reach up to 6,000 tons.
Deliveries are scheduled to continue until the end of the first quarter of 2026, with each shipment required to reach its destination within 15 days of departing the Russian port.
In addition to the French deliveries, Navoiuran plans to export uranium through Russia to the United States and Canada and is currently seeking contractors for transportation to processing facilities in those countries.
