Rössing’s business consists mainly of two streams of activities: one focuses on immediate and short-term activities that keep the mine running on a daily basis, while the other focuses on expanding and extending our business as far into the future as possible.
Rössing Uranium produces and exports uranium oxide from Namibia to nuclear power utilities around the world.
Our core purpose is, thus, to maximise the value delivered to shareholders by being a safe, significant and growing long-term supplier of uranium oxide.
Uranium is a relatively common element that is found in the earth all over the world in various levels of grading. The metal is mined in many countries, and processed into uranium oxide (U3O8). Uranium oxide needs further processing before it can be used as a fuel for a nuclear reactor that generates electricity.
