ABOUT THIS REPORT

OVERVIEW

Uranium Mining Market was valued at USD XX million in 2019 and is expected to reach USD 6,782.4 million by the end of 2026.

Bizlytik analysts forecast the global Uranium Mining market to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period, according to their latest market research report.

In terms of volume, the Uranium Mining Market was valued at 60,583 Tons in 2019 and is expected to garner XX Tons by 2026; witnessing a CAGR of XX% from 2020 to 2026.

The mining and extraction of naturally occurring uranium from the Earth’s crust are followed by chemical processing of the metal to integrate uranium as a fuel for nuclear reactors, and as radioisotopes in medical diagnosis, crops of high-yield variety, and irradiation of food for human consumption.

The creation of newly developed nuclear power plants that can safely, consistently generate large quantities of emission-free electricity has increased the demand for uranium mining. The quick depletion of readily available fossil fuels such as coal has also played a significant part in compelling the power generation industry to look towards nuclear power for consistent electricity generation, ensuring steady demand of uranium mining activities throughout the forecast period. The favorable federal investments into mining of enriched uranium would thereby provide new opportunities for business expansion to the companies involved in the coming years.

In situ leach (ISL), By-product, and Conventional Underground mining are covered in the Mining Process segment of the market scope, while the Application segment is categorized into Military, Electricity, Medical, Industrial, and Others. The report covers Production volume of the global market by Mining Process and Application, with the volume expressed in Tons.

The volume of the Electricity segment by Application was XX Tons in 2019, and it is expected to reach XX Tons by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 4.1% during 2020-2026. The continued rise in mining activities for enriched uranium to be used as a nuclear fuel would be one of the primary factors influencing the segment growth.

North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and Middle East & Africa are taken into consideration while arriving at the global volume and value figures. While North America is further categorized into the United States, Canada, and Mexico, Europe is split into the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, and Rest of Europe. Asia-Pacific covers India, China, Kazakhstan, Australia, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific in its scope. South America is bifurcated into Brazil, Argentina, and Rest of South America, with Middle East & Africa involving GCC Countries, Egypt, South Africa, and Rest of Middle East & Africa.

Asia-Pacific Uranium Mining market volume was valued at XX K Units in 2019, and it is predicted to reach XX K Units by 2026, growing at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period. The abundance in uranium deposits in countries such as Kazakhstan and Australia and the rapid development of nuclearpower plant infrastructure in China and Japan would influence the growth of the regional market in the coming years.

The Uranium Mining market is highly consolidated, with the majority of the market dominated by the top players concentrated in specific geographical countries of Kazakhstan, Australia, Canada, and Namibia. The extension of new business opportunities through strategic partnerships, mergers &acquisitions, and favorable supplier agreement is the primarily followed business strategies of the top players.

Kazatomprom is one of the most significant companies of the global Uranium Mining market in terms of production volume, with Cameco and Orano among many other vendors to hold substantial market share by volume and value.
