The French state-owned nuclear group Areva, have made a massive buy out of Uramin, which has seen it's share price rocket since early June. In a statement on Friday it declared it wants to double its production from 6,000 tonnes by 2011-12 and that Uramin will add 700 tonnes of that which leaves a big gap in the short to medium term.

More importantly it also stated that it remains on the lookout for further aquisitions to achieve that, which surely opens the prospects for such neighbouring prospects as WME.

Is it now about time to see the highly anticipated results and let companies like Areva know we are "open for business"?
