Rossing Uranium Mine tour from Swakopmund in Namibia | Тур на урановую шахту Россинг в Намибии
Bus day tour to Rossing Uranium Mine from Swakopmund in Namibia. Explanation of process of uranium extraction and view over open-cast mine. | Тур на урановую шахту Россинг в Намибии - самую большую урановую шахту в Африке, где добыча ведется открытым способом.
Uranium was discovered in the Namib Desert in 1928, but it was not until intensive exploration in the late 1950s that much interest was shown in the area. After discovering numerous uranium occurrences, Rio Tinto secured the rights to the low grade Rössing deposit in 1966. Ten years later, in 1976, Rössing Uranium, Namibia's first commercial uranium mine, began operating.
Уран был впервые обнаружен в пустыне Намиб в 1928 году. После интенсивной разведки в 50-х годах и обнаружения многочисленных урановых залежей, компания Рио Тинто получила права на месторождение Rössing в 1966 году. Десять лет спустя, в 1976 году, Rössing приступил к промышленному производству. Это первый коммерческий урановый рудник в Намибии.

China-operated uranium mine boosts Namibia's growth
The Husab Uranium Mine in Namibia is one of China's biggest single investments in Africa. The Husab Mine reportedly has a uranium reserve of 300,000 tonnes which is the third largest uranium-only deposit in the world. Analysts say the project is able to produce 7,000 tonnes of uranium oxide each year when fully operational. That will make it the second largest uranium producer in the world after the MacArthur River mine in Canada.

Introducing the Small Scale Miners of Western Namibia
The origins of our Namibian stones reach far back in time. Formed millions of years ago deep in the earth, they hold many stories. Could they speak, they would tell you of manifold climatic changes, mountains rising up from the Earth and folding, lava flowing and aeons of slow weathering by wind and rain and sun. They would also tell you about beauty.
Specific regimes of conditions, temperature, pressure, minerals and elements collaborated along the long Earth journey to produce the magnificent array of colourful gemstones we are familiar with today - like amethyst, clear and smoky quartz, topaz, tourmaline, fluorite and aquamarine.
A hundred per cent Namibian, they have a pure Namibian soul. Adding to their authenticity, they are mined by local miners around the Brandberg, Erongo and Spitzkoppe area, Namibian men and women who work long hours under harsh conditions in the sweltering Namibian sun. For added value, they are cleaned and crafted into jewellery - in Namibia, by Namibians.
Purchasing these authentic Namibian ‘Mine Stones’ in pieces of jewellery supports both the small miners and the craftspeople, and their families. It ensures that all production takes place in Namibia rather than overseas, completing the value chain.
Mine Stones often remain uncut in their true form, allowing their natural beauty to be more strongly expressed - and appreciated.
The result is, of course, proudly Namibian.
