"Rock layers are visible at an inactive uranium mine on Kazakhstan’s Mangyshlak Peninsula. While this particular mine closed in the 1990s, Kazakhstan continues to be an important source of uranium and in 2019 produced 43% of the world’s supply. Uranium is primarily used for nuclear power generation and is also used in the creation of nuclear weapons." https://www.over-view.com/overviews/kazakhstan-uranium-mine

Three Mile Island nuclear power plant will reopen for Microsoft : NPR

“What would be a better investment for our money? That’s the question we should be asking. We were told: let the marketplace decide. The market decided, and they decided it’s not nuclear,” said Eric Epstein of the watchdog group Three Mile Island Alert.

Three Mile Island's working reactor was shut down in 2019, after a legislative effort to bail out the plant failed when it could not keep up with demand for other cheaper energy sources.
