It was vindication of his long-hel- d belief that uranium would its 1-- j th. m and should have At the annual meeting of stockholders, he pointed out some of the implications of uranium energy: The capital and fuel life cycle costs for a uranium pow er plant have been holding at 18 cents a million BTUs while plants have escalated to 70 cents and gas fired plants to $1 per coal-fire- ar d million BTUs. Energy Punch And in terms of scale alone, uranium packs a big energy punch One truck load of uranium oxide has the Big latent energy of KReully Activity 20,000 of truck-load- s coal One pound of uranium oxide is equal in potential energy to 10 tons of coal and 40 barrels of oil. Gains .Federal Resources happy. But the utilities are not. is On the heels of a big week in real estate activity, members of the Salt Lake Board of Realtors achieved another good week 111 real estate sales The reason: All of a sudden, theyre finding out theres not enough uranium around to Casivccj assure them of enough fuel for the 35 to years of expected life of their nuclear power stations. It came as a shock to buyers of Westinghouse Electric reactors when they learned that Westinghouse which had said it would provide the fuel with the power package was was filwj --through the boards multiple sting JJ'rvice neared $6 million 40 ?; ; 4nc(u(ed in the transactions were 127 niidSoCJal sales for $4,851,309, 19 four commercial properties and niit apartment-duple- x properties. 1 gj price delivery contracts With costs of exploration and mining development escalating, they found their uranium commitment was a monkey on the back On the front end of getting the ore out of the earth are not only the problems Of politics m Canada and Australia, bui the United States as well. Congress already has wrenched tiie depletion allowance from the oil Given that propensity, the same Congress could well change the century-old mining law from claim location and patent to one of conipctitiie leasing and limited tenure When and How Much? That specter looms over any decisions on when and how much to commit to an exploration program. Says one exploration vice president, if the uranium industry is to meet its needs, there will have to be discovered the equal of several new prospects the Uravan Belt of the Colorado Plateau, Ambrosia Lake, N M , and the Shirley and Powder River Basins of unable to guarantee a fuel supply In building coal fired plants, utilities made sure they first had a certain supply of coal and water. But, for whatever reason, this was not the case m the planning for nuelear reactors A. Payne 'Kibbe, Lead of a Salt Lake d nuclear consulting firm, and chairman of a nuclear property and ore brokerage, notes that nuclear power station builders did not worry over long-tersupply as the coal-fire- d station builders did. The reason: The coal stations were looked into their locations by the high cost of coal transport. It was essential they have a long-terproximate supply. Prohibitively Costly The reactor buyers reasoned they could get a supply of uranium from anywhere in the world. And to develop a supply would have been prohibitively costly. After all, the oil industry had long lived with reserves. Only two, a Japanese consortium of utilities, and the Arizona Nuclear involving three Project stations outside of Phoenix have their fuel cinched up for the critical penod of 1990 to 2000. There now is under way a flurry of exploration activity m the United States as major energy and mining companies look for the elusive element Canadians Wary While Canada may well honor the presence of grandfather U.S. and Crown entrepreneurs, it will probably maintain a tight hold on new efforts to relieve it of its reserves. Australia, with rich reserves, is sitting tight until it can be certain that it optimizes returns to itself. Westinghouses problem was guaranteeing buyers of its equipment a supply of fuel. It was like a car dealer guaranteeing a buyer a year's supply of gasoline just before the OPEC cartel quadrupled the pnee of oil. prospects fromt sales of the firm's! ul proper-Oji- ri; -1 . y : " " - 25-to- n on 159 f - - "SutJftP5ijiSiSM?!S t ry : . , Brightly lit ZCMI Center, boasting stores already open, celebrates (law an to be exact !- i Jr'."Si"t -- . ve - Ir x vl- s 30 sLx-da- Thursday through Sunday More than $8,000 m pnzes will be fl given away periodically during the keck Grand prize is a trip for two to - t .. $! - s . v-rtr"- W, 'v y f U 7 4) l 5 y 1 ""-i- fujs y,S f m Other activities will include a fashion $how Wednesday, and musical presen-'kition- s 'V " it r - : v X - , .
