Saudi Arabia Finds Rare Earth and Uranium Deposits
Saudi Arabia announced the discovery of large resources of rare earth minerals with promising uranium concentrations at the Jabal Sayid project in Medina Region. The reserves are estimated at approximately 114 million tons of high-grade ore. This discovery comes as part of the kingdom’s efforts to develop and economically exploit uranium resources, especially by utilizing uranium associated with phosphate fertilizer production, which preliminary experiments in collaboration with the French company Orano have shown to be promising for extraction. Additionally, Saudi Arabia has signed cooperation agreements with the United States and global companies to enhance its capabilities in processing rare metals and securing supply chains, as part of a national plan for nuclear energy and the development of strategic mineral resources.
