Earlier Report Observations

Between 2018 and 2022, the uranium ore and concentrates market in Uzbekistan grew steadily from 3 450 t to 3 561 t. This gradual expansion was supported by ongoing modernization of production capacities and the use of cost-efficient in-situ leaching technology, which made the extraction of low-grade ores viable. State-owned Navoiyuran remained the key player, with state-backed investment programs funding the expansion of mining and processing infrastructure.

The market growth continued to be driven by state-led initiatives, including a 2021 reduction in royalty rates to stimulate investment and a major 2022 presidential decree aimed at increasing uranium extraction and processing volumes through 2030. This period also saw the strategic entry of new international partners, such as the French Orano and China's CNNC, which signed memorandums for joint development of uranium deposits and technology transfer, thereby expanding the industry's capabilities and resource base through extensive exploration.

In the following years, the sector's development was marked by deepened foreign involvement and technological upgrades. For instance, production of uranium concentrate reportedly increased by 11% in 2023 due to modernized facilities. The partnership with CNNC evolved to include plans for expanding mining capacities and jointly studying the construction of small modular nuclear power plants, which could create future domestic demand. Active geological exploration led to the discovery of new deposits, further securing the raw material base for sustained production.
