US approval a step toward Russian company control of Wyoming uranium mines
Published on November 30th, 2010
Topics : Nuclear Regulatory Commission , Uranium One , Wyoming , U.S. CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Two uranium mines in Wyoming are on their way to control by a Russian company now that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has approved transferring the mines' licenses. The NRC last week approved the license transfer to a Russian company known as ARMZ which expects to obtain a controlling interest in Canadian-owned Uranium One by year's end. Uranium One holds the licenses for a proposed uranium mine and an existing uranium mine in northeast Wyoming. The transfer raised concern from Wyoming's congressional delegation, who said the uranium could in theory go overseas and serve against U.S. interests. The NRC continues to prohibit exporting the uranium.

What the heck?
You’ve got to be kidding!
Are they shipping the U out of country to be processed or doing it here? This is probably just a strait business deal to acquire the mines and make some money, that’s all. U prices have gone up like all metals lately and with the dollar down it is a good time for them to buy, had they bought into two gold or copper mines would that upset anyone also?
If they wanted to pull something illegal my bet would be they would go to Africa, plenty of mines and a much less lax inspection of the final product.
This is Absolute Insanity! This iis what happens when You have a Muslim Communist Community Organizer as TOTUS! Zero Hates America!
Welcome to the wonders of “free trade,” where everything we have is up for sale.... at fire-sale prices.
Strategic resources? What a quaint, outmoded notion.
what could possibly go wrong ... obviously for peaceful purposes only
Now, the thing sells for $4.85. Anyone who bought when the fear was rife got about $2.00 turned into $5.85 ($4.85 + the $1.00 dividend.)
[Google page here; one-year chart here. The most recent fall is due to the company going ex-dividend.]

Uh...I think we’ve been transported to an alternate universe. Everything that’s up should be down. Everything that’s down should be up. Logic is out the door. It’s happened before. About sixteen years ago, in fact. We really need to put an end to this strange portal to alternate universes...once and for all.
so I guess the Russian ARMZ company will have uranium for domestic use only
Hey all you “free traitors” out there. Looks like a great deal, eh? God forbid the US should not allow a foreign company to buy whatever they want here.
Next thing you know the Chinese will buying some US mines, agricultural businesses, oil, natural gas or tech companies. Nothing wrong with that? Right, you free trade dupes and stooges? Libertarianism uber alles!
We had the right to block the sale, but we didn’t. Why don’t you blame someone who is actually responsible for a change? Are all protectionists that stupid?
