            <description><![CDATA[The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has reported that global uranium production is increasing, to meet the rising demand from the nuclear energy sector.

These findings are in 'Uranium 2026: Resources, Production and Demand', a joint report of the IAEA and the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development. Worldwide, on January 1, 2025 there had been 418 commercial nuclear reactors in operation, with a total generating capacity of 378 GW(e). Fuelling these required some 64 500 tons of uranium (tU) a year (tU/y). There were another 23 reactors, with a total capacity of 19.7 GW(e), in a state of suspended operation.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[LONDON – Global oil supply and demand will fall further than previously thought this year, the International Energy Agency said on Friday, as a lack of progress in ending the Iran war delays the return of normal Middle East flows into 2027 and sends fuel prices soaring. An increase in attacks on oil tankers in Middle East shipping routes has helped send crude prices towards $110 a barrel this week for the first time since May. But this hike is overshadowed by the surging price of fuels such as diesel, which have hit record highs.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Mineral processing equipment specialist Metso has launched a breakthrough innovation in coarse particle flotation, Sampo Cell, that enhances recovery of coarse particles without compromising fine particle recovery, helping mining companies improve the efficiency, profitability, and sustainability of their operations. 

“Mining companies are under increasing pressure to process more complex ores, improve recovery and reduce their environmental footprint. The Sampo Cell represents a significant leap forward in flotation technology. By expanding the recoverable particle size range and simplifying coarse particle flotation, customers can unlock additional value from existing operations,” says Metso separation senior VP Teemu Kaarniemi. ]]></description>
