This concentration of dominance reflects the historic weight of Kazakhstan, Russia, and their allied states in fueling the world’s nuclear reactors.But by 2030, the landscape looks very different. As Kazakhstan’s output declines and Canadian uranium mines ramp up production, the “Coalition of the Willing” is expected to close much of this gap. This shift marks more than just a resource rebalancing — it’s evidence that the West is finally waking up to the role of nuclear energy.For Western economies to meet surging energy demand while moving toward carbon-free power, nuclear must be at the center of the mix. Growing uranium production in Canada and allied nations signals a renewed commitment to nuclear as the clean, baseload energy source that will underpin the next phase of the energy transition.(By Anthony Vaccaro; Files from: Ali Ravaghi; Creative: James Alafriz)Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Mining.com Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Mining.com
