Kazatomprom JSC has signed another mining contract. The agreement involves extracting radioactive metal from the subsurface of site No. 3 at the Inkai deposit. The relevant documents were signed following negotiations with the Ministry of Energy of Kazakhstan. This contract is crucial for the national company as it will significantly increase its mineral resource base, according to the operator’s press center.

According to Kazatomprom, obtaining the license will allow the extraction of 701 tons of metal over the next four years. It is noteworthy that Inkai holds significant uranium reserves and is one of the main uranium deposits in the country. Experts estimate the reserves at the site to exceed 83,000 tons. Furthermore, developing these resources will positively impact the Turkestan region.

Additionally, the company believes that in the future, the contract for the right to develop this area will go to Kazatomprom-SaUran LLP, a subsidiary of the current operator.
