BASIN URANIUM APPLAUDS US GOVERNMENT ON RUSSIAN URANIUM IMPORT BAN
Basin Uranium Corp. is applauding the United States Senate vote to ban the import of enriched uranium from Russia. The Prohibiting Russian Uranium Imports Act, which was approved by unanimous consent, would bar U.S. imports of Russian enriched uranium to fuel the United States over 90 commercial reactors. According to the Energy Information Administration, Russia supplies nearly 25 per cent of all enriched uranium used in domestic reactors.
"The U.S. government's continued push to reduce foreign dependance on such a critical input of domestic energy security, such as the uranium that fuels the U.S.'s clean-energy supply, only reinforces our focus and commitment to developing our U.S. uranium asset portfolio," commented Mike Blady, chief executive officer of Basin Uranium. "This announcement, which places an increasing emphasis on U.S.-based sources for uranium supply, comes at an opportune time as we look to table our maiden resource for our Chord project in the coming weeks."
