Greenland Minerals and Energy at Kuannersuit (Kvanefjeldet) is now joined as a uranium explorer in South Greenland.
It comes after Tanbreez, which has so far been marketed as the 'cleaner' of the two rare earth projects, has found uranium in the license area at the foot of Killavaat Alannguat (The Pretzels), a few kilometers from Qaqortoq.

According to the company's consultant Kuupik Kleist, former chairman of the national board of the uranium-critical IA, the plan is probably not to extract the controversial mineral. But Tanbreez, on the other hand, does not want to risk others trying to get permission to investigate the occurrence.
- This is due to the fact that within our license area, where the intention is to extract rare earths, a deposit of uranium has been discovered.
