1 Prospects of nuclear energy in terms of their uranium fuel supply Nikolaus ARNOLD, Wolfgang KROMP Institute of Security- and Risk Sciences, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna Werner ZITTEL Ludwig-Bölkow-Systemtechnik GmbH World Resources Forum 211, Sep 19 21, 211
2 Background Re organisation of energy supply and the efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions nuclear energy propagated Uranium as fuel No significant progress alternative fuel cycles and reactors (Gen. 4) Fuel base for current nuclear reactor fleet availability is basis for expansion capability and reach Annual demand ~ 7 t natural Uranium equivalent 8 7 Vergleich Bedarf - Produktion Fulfilment of demand Stocks (incl. nuclear weapons) Mining Reprocessing (RepU, MOX) t U Historische Produktion Reaktorbedarf Comparison of Production and Demand; Data: IAEA
3 Background / Scope of work Rise in uranium prices in 27 Inflexible market development of new deposits requires long lead times financial risk for potential investors The aim of the work carried out Identify structures and main actors of the uranium market. Analysis of historical developments. Introduction of scenarios to forecast the uranium market. Comparison of supply scenarios and nuclear growth scenarios Source: Euratom Supply Agency
4 Methodology (1) Data basis Annual company reports, official sources Amounts & classifications of resources, ore quality, capacity of the production, historical data, planned developments and expansions Detailed assessments of approximately 7 production facilities Adding up the individual production is a regional or global picture of the production Kyzkylkum (N. Kharasan 1) - based on 27 IR, at 9% capacity startup first production phase extended production phase mine phase out Northern Kharasan1 Capacity: 1 t p.a. IR (recoverable): 31 t U Expansion planned: 3 t p.a. t U
5 Methodology (2) Bellshaped curve (Hubbert) Describes exponential growth in a limited (resources) space Used for potential approximation when no detailed data or (currently) no mining takes place Estimation on US uranium production potential via Hubbert curve Can not completely coincide with the true course of production of a uranium mine Limitations of the market and the infrastructure faster reaching the production capacity Comparison of bell shaped curve with course of production Rabbit Lake, CAN tu Rabbit Lake - historisch angepasste Glockenkurve

10 Supply scenarios Scenarios of global uranium availability based on RAR.
11 World Resources Forum 211, Sep 19 21, 211 Supply scenarios
12 Grades and lead times years Timespan betweeen discovery and Minestartup Initial Ressources (tu) of Uranium deposits assigned to grades (% U) Source IAEA UDEPO (excluding depleted, phosphorite, blackshale, dormant, reclaimed); lower estimates and actual values for mines larger than 1, tu used to total 5,825, tu. Olympic Dam other <,3 %,3-,5 %,5-,1 %,1-,2 %,1-1,,2-,5 %,5-1 % 1-5 %,15-5, > 5% Global distribution by grades Few highly concentrated much of lower concentration Historically operated in a "better" mining deposits Mining lead times The most easily accessible deposits have been taken already in operation until Stricter environmental regulations Low uranium prices have delayed the launch of new mines. Previous selection of deposits via economic criteria increasingly unfavorable projects must be developed
13 Conclusions Production scenarios RAR With the currently known RAR no growth in the reactor park can be supported! Peak production is expected around 22. Identified resources Can support growth, but do not cover more than one requirement of 1, tu in 25 Peak in production around 23 Future uranium market influenced by Australia, Canada, Kazakhstan, Niger and Namibia partially by Russia and the United States. Balance in production and demand seems possible temporarily reduced demand for secondary ressources rapid growth of production in Kazakhstan Rapid expansion may lead to an equally rapid decline
14 Conclusions Resources do not match the available supply quantity Lead times up to 3 years global supply security needs forward looking planning Planning time of companies only short term Production in Kazakhstan signalize, that enough uranium is available and therefore slow down additional exploration Other frame conditions Technical (eg Cigar Lake) Political & Social other bottlenecks ( eg ISL acid)
