Uranium Milling

Uranium Milling is a nuclear fuel cycle process that involves the chemical and physical treatment of mined uranium ore to extract and concentrate uranium into a marketable form, primarily through crushing, grinding, and leaching, thereby distinguishing it from upstream mining and downstream enrichment activities.
