US agency submits uranium import probe to White House
The probe was prompted by a petition filed by two uranium mining companies, complaining that subsidized foreign competitors have caused them to cut capacity and lay off workers.
The miner has finally completed the sale of assets from its Tarmac joint venture to a subsidiary of French engineering and construction group Bouygues.
The issue of how to pay for mine reclamation is flying below the surface of the general public even though the matter is, literally, above ground and right before the eyes of the major coal-producing regions.
