Uranium industry at the crossroads In the ocean of Australia's mineral exports, uranium makes up more than a drop - but not much more. The minerals industry shipped about $160 billion in commodities last financial year, and less than 1 per cent of that was uranium. But the story of uranium has never been just about the money. And as the global dash for supply heats up, whipped up by predictions of a doubling in the world's nuclear power generators in the next 40 years, one question is set to become more pressing: what will happen to the politics of yellowcake?
