2 Country Reserves kt Production kt USA Algeria Australia Brazil Canada China Egypt India Iraq Israel Jordan Mexico Morocco Peru Russia Saudi Arabia Senegal South Africa Syria Togo Tunisia Others World Total Phosphate reserves 67 billion tonnes of reserves 300 billion tonnes of resources* *USGS 2012
3 Capacity trends
4 Phosphate utilization 72% - Phos acid 12% - SSP 2% - TSP 14% - Other uses (Nyri, 2010) - Mining - Beneficiated phosphate rock - Wet process - Fertilizer production Process Production Capacity (`000t P 2 O 5 ) Di-Hydrate 22, Hemi-Hydrate 4, Other/Unknown 5, %
5 Uranium resources tu (UDEPO, 2013) 1. Intrusive Granite-related Polymetallic breccia complex Volcanic-related Metasomatite Metamorphite Proterozoic unconformity Collapse breccia pipe Sandstone Paleo-quartz pebble conglomerate Surficial Coal-lignite Carbonate Phosphate Black shales Phosphate U deposits identified TOTAL tu
6 Phosphate U resources Country Resources tu U ppm Brazil Chile Egypt Finland Greece Iraq Israel Jordan Kazakhstan Mexico Morocco Peru Sweden Syria USA Total
7 Assessing U availability from phosphates Quantities associated with known and potential phosphate resources Contained in Phosphoric acid Not extracted; available in PG and process water Available in raffinite and slags Lost in tailings and clays Not Commercial for current extraction Potential for Commercial extraction Commercially Extracted quantities Currently dissipated in fertilizers
8 UxP lifecycle and UNFC-2009 Conceptual Conceptual Studies Studies Order of Magnitude Scoping Studies Studies Pre-feasibility Pre-feasibility Studies Studies Feasibility Project Studies Implementation Project Feasibility Studies Implementation Mine closure, Remediation and Decommissioning Handover Additional Quantities in Place U Extraction Project Non- Commercial Project Potentially Commercial Project Commercial Project U Extraction Project Development Unclarified Development Pending Justified for Development Approved For Development On Production Available in Clays and Residues Development Not Viable Development On Hold

10 Extraction of U 3 Waves First wave: Driven by strategic reasons Second wave: Driven by energy boom 8 plants in USA during 70s Also in Spain, Canada, Belgium, Israel, Iran, Iraq, China (and also in Taiwan, China) Third wave: ? Methods Precipitation Solvent extraction Ion Exchange Liquid membrane techniques Supported Liquid Membranes Emulsion Liquid Membranes
11 Solvents Vs Ion exchange Technology SX (Liquid-Liquid) IX (Solid-liquid) Process equipment Conventional, proven, flexible, simple Performance, Kinetics, & Relative Cost (?) Hazards Solvent & Diluent Waste Disposal (?) Capital Cost Relatively High Reported to be low Operating cost Governed by Solvent Cost & Loss Reported to be low Industrial Deployment Proven Yet to be demonstrated Life cycle performance Adequate data Available Yet to be demonstrated Disposal Simple, Technology available Bulk active solid effluent (?)
12 Solvent extraction steps
13 Acid cleaning - Pre-treatment Most important stage Involve % of plant cost Unit operations involve : Cooling Clarification ( flocculation & organic removal ) Valency adjustment
14 New solvents One example D2EHPA-TBP Extracts uranium from WPA D = for 1.5M D2EHPA 0.2M TBP Cycle-I stripping with MGA under reducing condition, cycle-ii stripping with ammonium carbonate solution [US patent no (2007)] Co-extraction of rare earths is better and that of iron is lower as compared with D2EHPA- TOPO Due to higher viscosity of solvent, slower phase separation; needs larger settlers implying higher solvent hold-up Since D lower than D2EHPA-TOPO system, number of stages required is higher; higher solvent inventory. Useful when TOPO is unavailable or it is desired to co-extract rare earths with uranium.
15 Industrial equipment in Pre-treatment Clariflocculator for removal of suspended solids & organics Belt Filter for separation of solids from clear phosphoric Acid Mixer-settler for organic wash Activated Carbon column for organic removal Mixing Tanks or Electrolytic Oxidator / Reducer for valency adjustment Clariflocculator Electrolytic Oxidator/reducer
16 Industrial Equipment in Extraction Mixer-Settler, a conventional liquid-liquid contacting device Centrifugal Extractor, a more efficient liquid-liquid contacting device having advantage of low inventory Rotating Disc Contactor, a preferred liquid-liquid contacting device for industrial application due to low footprint & ease of automation Mixer-Settler, Safeguard, march 2013
