Uranium and thorium ores code description

The category “Uranium and thorium ores” encompasses two subcategories: “Uranium ores” and “Thorium ores.” These categories are used to classify and categorize public procurement notices in the European Union. “Uranium ores” refer to naturally occurring deposits of uranium, a radioactive element commonly used in nuclear power generation and various industrial applications. On the other hand, “Thorium ores” pertain to naturally occurring deposits of thorium, another radioactive element with potential applications in nuclear energy and certain technological processes. These subcategories help suppliers and contracting authorities easily identify and locate procurement notices related to the extraction, processing, or trade of uranium and thorium ores.
