URANIUM

Since the decade of the 50s until the 80s, public institutions
from the Colombian government and private companies
URANIUM
developed Uranium studies in the country without any
production progress.

As a result of these studies, they have identified prospects

in the country associated with sedimentary rocks (marine
and continental origin) and igneous rocks distributed
along the eastern and central mountain ranges - from
the department of Huila to the department of Norte
de Santander.

In recent years, with modern methods, multinational

companies have made exploration campaigns in the area
of Samana (eastern flank of the Central Mountain Range in
the department of Caldas), rediscovering an ancient
prospect. This type of exploration projects can open new
perspectives in uranium exploration in Colombia.
