KYIV. Oct 23 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Nuclear Fuel state concern and Kazatomprom signed an agreement on cooperation in late September, the Ukrainian company said on its Facebook page.
“The signing of the agreement opens wide prospects for the development of Ukrainian-Kazakh relations in the development of nuclear industry enterprises of Ukraine and Kazakhstan,” the report said.
As reported, in August 2016 former head of Kazatomprom Askar Zhumagaliyev at a meeting with Minister of Energy and Coal Industry Ihor Nasalyk suggested using mobile complexes for extraction and processing of uranium developed by the Kazakhstan Institute of High Technologies. According to him, the advantage of such complexes is compactness and no need for capital construction, which is especially important for work on sites with small uranium reserves.
