In 2007, the Department for Mineral Resources and Energy of SA declared uranium a 'strategic mineral', just before it finalised its national nuclear strategy (Anonymous, 2007h, Olivier, 2007a). In 2015, SA announced its intentions to build 6–8 nuclear reactors with the combined output of 9.6 giga watts in the next 6–8 years ( Guern, 2015 ).

But only a few of the uranium ores known contain sufficient uranium (greater than 0.1%) to extract commercially. Significant concentrations of uranium occur in some substances such as uraninite (the most common uranium ore), phosphate rock deposits, and other minerals. Uraninite – is the most common uranium ore.
