Uranium resources to meet long-term uranium requirements: summary of EPRI Special Report No. 5

This study seeks to explore the uncertainty concerning two particular aspects of the larger question of economic growth and energy supply, namely the size of the nation's uranium resource and future levels of uranium consumption. For the reader's guidance subjective probability levels are attached to the estimates derived for each of these items. While the analysis here hopefully reduces uncertainty in some areas, the geological and statistical underpinnings of the analysis and the published data on which they are based are not so strong as to support a conclusion that this is the final word in the analysis of uranium resources
