re: licenses I take your point U238, "with or without licences it's the uranium that's important..."
From Reefton website, looks like there's uranium at Erongo...
Pol
Erongo Project, Namibia
Project Highlights
Four radiometric anomalies identified covering over 68 square kilometres in central Namibia, Africa. Significant radiometric response from ground truthing of the anomalies. Anomalies situated within close proximity to Rio Tinto’s Rossing Uranium Mine and Paladin Resources Ltd’s developing Langer Heinrich Uranium Deposit.
Status
The Company has commenced radiometric surveying returning significant readings up to 94,320 counts per minute thereby indicating the presence of uranium bearing mineralisation.
A total of four radiometric anomalies have been identified to date totaling an area of 68 square kilometres (km):
"Vergenoeg", 12 km x 3 km
"Sukses", 5 km x 1.2 km
"Hakskeen", 8 km x 2 km
"Hoopverloor", 7 km x 1.5 km
The series of radiometric anomalies occur within alluvial basins interpreted to have developed on palaeochannels similar to the developing Langer Heinrich uranium deposit owned by Paladin Resources Ltd located to the south of Hakskeen.
The Company is collecting soil samples from the radiometric anomalies and an RC drilling programme has also commenced at Hakskeen.
The Rossing Mine - owned by Rio Tinto - is the world’s fifth largest uranium producer and is also located to the south of Hakskeen (see location map attached). It has produced about 70,000 tonnes of uranium since it opened in 1976.
