World Wide Minerals Ltd
is set to assume management of the Tselinny uranium mining project in Kazakhstan. The
Tselinny uranium assets include several underground mines with estimated reserves of 75 million tonnes of ore average
grade 0.12%. World Wide Minerals wants to develop a geological and mining plan to increase the grade to at least 10
million tonnes at a mining grade of 0.35 to 0.40% uranium. Initial production is expected to start in 1997. [UI News

Kazakhstan has begun mining uranium at a new field in the south of the country with a production capacity of 750
metric tons annually, the national nuclear power company said. The new deposit was brought into operation as part of
Kazakh-Chinese cooperation in nuclear power engineering, Kazatomprom said in a statement.
"The field's operator is the joint venture Semizbai-U and the project is being implemented as part of the agreement on
strategic partnership between 
Kazatomprom
 and 
China Guangdong Nuclear Power Co. - CGNPC 
", the statement
said.
The uranium field will reach its intended annual output of 750 metric tons of uranium next year, with 500 metric tons
expected to be produced in 2009. The field will have an operational life of 25 years. Under the agreement between
Kazatomprom and CGNPC, uranium extracted from the field will be used to meet the requirements of China's nuclear
industry. (RIA Novosti April 28, 2009)

in 2015,
according to Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources Vladimir Shkolnik. For this purpose, new 
uranium mines are
to be opened in the Zarechnoye, Moikuduk, Zhalpak and Budennovskoye uranium fields and 
concentration plants to be
built at the Tsentralnoye, Stepnoye and Shestoye mines. (Kazakhstan today April 5, Interfax April 6,
