The Mkuju River uranium mining project in southeastern Tanzania is entering a new, decisive phase of development.

The project operator – Mantra Tanzania Ltd., a subsidiary of Uranium One Group, which is part of Rosatom State Corporation – has announced the start of preparations for the construction of the main industrial complex.

Work on the site is accelerating: land preparation, road construction, and the creation of necessary infrastructure are underway.

The impetus for this stage came from the results of the pilot process plant, launched in July 2025. Over the past months, Mantra Tanzania’s specialists have gained valuable data on the deposit’s geological parameters and uranium ore processing technologies.
