Abstract

With the maturation and completion of nuclear electricity technology,the nuclear power has already been accepted by the publics as a kind of clear,high-efficient and green energy resources.A new round of upsurge in nuclear power construction has been unfolded.In the coming 25 years,100 to 300 nuclear power stations will be established in the world.Therefore,sufficient attention has been paid to the fuels of nuclear power station(natural uranium).Exploration and development of uranium resources are increased by the different uranium industry companies in the world.Uranium resources have already become one of the focuses in the global nuclear field.Uranium resources,exploration,production,demands,prices are introduced briefly in the paper,and the causes of trends in uranium prices are also analyzed.
