panies have started to realize gains in the
past several months. Saskatchewan-based
Cameco Corp., the world's largest uranium
supplier, reached $21.98/share compared
to a low of $16.75/share on November
15, 2012. This is the first sign of any true
recovery in the uranium sector.
Kazakhstan, Australia and Canada are
the top three producers and account for
63% of world uranium production. The
world's leading source of high grade uranium is the Athabasca Basin, a region
in northern Saskatchewan and Alberta.
Over the past year, Canada entered an
agreement with India to export uranium
and expanded an original agreement
with China to increase uranium exports.
Companies with property in the Athabasca
region are excited about the opportunity
uranium presents and are patiently awaiting a recovery in the uranium sector. n
