Denison Mines may seek to further develop uranium sites PDF Print E-mail
Thursday, 20 March 2008
ImageCanadian-based Denison Mines said on Wednesday that increasing uranium prices may result in the company further developing its Mongolian holdings. 

Though uranium is currently selling at $74 per pound, it closed last year at $90 per pound. Industry officials believe higher international demand for nuclear fuel will force uranium prices higher during the upcoming years. 

In Mongolia, Denison Mines is managing partner with a 70 percent stake in the Gurvan Saihan uranium site. The Mongolian and Russian governments are the other stockholders in the site. 

“We believe that it's at or near the bottom of the (uranium) price cycle,” CEO Peter Farmer said on Tuesday.  

“The supply-demand cycle for uranium is under pressure...over the past five years, supply has increased by just under 2% a year. Demand continues to outstrip supply,” Farmer said.
