They should be focusing their attention on what's going on (and has been going on) at the PINE GAP DEFENSE BASE just outside Alice Springs.
Pine Gap, near Alice Springs, employs nearly 1,000 people, mainly from the Central Intelligence Agency and the National Reconnaissance Office. Originally code-named MERINO, it is the ground station for a satellite network that intercepts telephone, radio, data links, and other communications around the world. The facility currently includes a dozen radomes, a 5,600 square meter computer room, and 20-odd service and support buildings. Two of its ground antenna are part of the U.S. Defense Satellite Communications System.

radio isotopes are two ways knife for humanity as number of terrorism incidents are increasing day by by so the use of uranium should be handle with care method not for all as under political and diplomatic compulsions as it is in case of recent US nuclear deal.

wittaman1, I like this story. Perhaps France is one of the main purchasing countries, as they are into nuc power stations in a big way. Unfortunatly anti-ness to whats going on will not be listen to and 200 people is not true crowd power. I think that USA's Uranium is mostly home grown and its all the same there not caring and not listening.
I see a comment that realates to the US listening post nearby but I truthly think US is not involved with this project. What companies involved in the future mining? Thats the best way to see if USA is involved.
