Areva's uranium deal with Jordan ended
- Jordan: Thursday, October 25 - 2012 at 03:35
Jordan has announced the termination of a uranium mining licence for a joint venture between Areva and a local firm, but the French nuclear giant insisted the agreement only covered exploration, AFP has reported. "The licence for the Jordanian French Uranium Mining Co (JFUMC) to mine for uranium in central Jordan is now void," the Jordan Atomic Energy Commission said. "With this decision, the mining agreement has been terminated by mutual consent of all parties to the agreement without any liability on any of the parties involved in the mining agreement." Areva spokesman, however, said the company "had never been agreed that (the venture) would lead to production." "We created a joint-venture with JERI and the JFUMC as part of an agreement on uranium exploration in Jordan, which was due to expire this year (in January)," he said.
