First Uranium welcomes this opportunity to comment on the report on Uranium Mining in Africa. We appreciate that the report is the publishers’ means of promoting best practice within the industry. Unfortunately we have not had the resources to engage at length with the researchers – a fact that no doubt contributed to some of the factual errors and misperceptions about First Uranium’s operations contained in the report. While this is not the forum for a line-by-line analysis of the report, we have addressed some of the key issues that we believe need clarification and/ or rectification.
