Sullivan sees at least two major factors on which he bases his of opinion high promotion the industry and secrecy on the part of the government. By high promotion, he explained, he meant that the dollar per ton paid for usable ore has been lost sight of by the general public, which gets the uranium picture in terms of huge ore bodies worth millions Jfox Reel Service There will be no uranium bust in 1955 or 1956, but it may come, if certain steps are not taken, within the next five to ten years, in the opinion of Ray Sullivan, vice president of Minerals Engineering 4$T la'1 j'. No Uranium Bust in '55 Says ME VP of dollars. Sullivan deHigh promotion, clared, must simmer down to the hard facts about the uranium industry. Secrecy, he added, is a bar to the processing of ore that is now stacked up at mills throughout the plateau. What should be done, Sullivan believes, is make known the price and throw ore buying out on the open bid market, giving the mills a chance to catch up with the current supply. He foresees a price rise for ore, but says the ultimate price for usable material will go lower. This will be accomplished, Sullivan figures, by doubling the efficiency of mining and milling methods (now at a 2 per cent recovery rate) which, in effect, W'lll keep the price of ore stable. If we can reach a 4 per cent efficiency, he said, then doubling the price of ore will merely equalize with the cost of recovery. With the solution of those two and factors high promotion uranium. Industrial leaders are working feverishly to up production of potash, petroleum, natural gas and natural gas liquids, which come under the minerals industry. Because of depressed prices there still may be no mining of d in 1955. zinc or zinc-lea- ooi fere.
