Where else in the country have new uranium deposits been located?
Considering the need of the uranium and its immediate requirement to expand the power generation base, extensive exploration activities with newer techniques are put in place. Quite a few small to medium size low grade uranium deposits have been located in different parts of the country amongst whom mention may be made of Bhima basin in Karnataka and Aravallis in Rajsthan. Exploratory mining is being carried out at Gogi uranium deposit to establish the ore geometry and undertake pilot plant studies to develop the process flowsheet prior to regular mining. Rohili-Ghateswar uranium deposit in Sikar district of Rajsthan is under advanced stage of detailed exploration.
