Mining companies under encouragement by the South African Government now want to mine Uranium on a vast scale all around South Africa. 120 years of Uranium pollution due to Gold Mining Activities has never been cleaned up ... what will make this any different?

Uranium explorer Albidon has finalised a joint-venture agreement with African Energy, covering the Chirundu and Kariba Valley uranium projects in Zambia, the company said on Wednesday.

The Chirundu project included the Njame uranium deposit and the recently discovered Gwabe uranium prospect.

African Energy is exploring for uranium on a number of Albidon’s mineral tenements in Zambia under an exploration cooperation agreement .

Albidon said that African Energy had spend A$1-million on the Chirundu project which earned it an initial equity interest of 30% in the property, with the right to earn up to a 70% stake by completion of a prefeasibility study.

The company informed Albidon in January that it planned to earn equity stakes in the Chirundu and Njame projects.
