Mantra Tanzania, a subsidiary of Uranium One Group (part of Rosatom), has commissioned a pilot uranium processing facility at the Mkuju River project in southern Tanzania. The inauguration, attended by Her Excellency Samia Suluhu Hassan, President of the United Republic of Tanzania, alongside senior government officials, community leaders, and Rosatom representatives, marks a major step forward in Russia–Tanzania nuclear energy cooperation.

Alexey Likhachev, Director General of Rosatom, said: “Rosatom offers its cutting-edge uranium processing technologies to unlock Tanzania’s geological potential. We are committed to equal partnership, sustainable development, and the highest environmental and social standards. This project is a significant milestone in Tanzania’s integration into the global nuclear energy landscape.”

The pilot plant, located at the Nyota deposit, will test and refine processing technologies, generating data to guide the design of the main facility. The future plant will have an annual capacity of up to 3,000 tons of uranium, with construction beginning in early 2026 and operations slated for 2029. Full-scale development is expected to create around 4,000 jobs and stimulate infrastructure upgrades, including improvements to the Namtumbo district road network.

The project fully complies with Tanzanian and international environmental standards, featuring real-time ecosystem monitoring, closed-loop water recirculation, and biodiversity conservation programs.

The Mkuju River pilot facility underscores how responsible resource development – powered by advanced technology and strong environmental safeguards – can deliver economic growth, improve regional infrastructure, and benefit local communities, while reinforcing strategic bilateral cooperation.
