The world’s biggest uranium miner Kazatomprom on Friday posted a 138% jump in third-quarter profit on the back of soaring sales and higher prices.

Kazatomprom’s profit rose to 90.675 billion tenge ($214 million) from 38.026 billion tenge a year earlier.

The company this month said that quarterly sales more than doubled and the average price of uranium was up 10%.
