Moab Khotsong

mining South Africa operating

Moab Khotsong is a mining facility operated by Harmony Gold Mining in South Africa. Its capacity is not publicly disclosed.

South Africa's only significant uranium source, and it is not a uranium mine. Uranium comes out of the Vaal River gold operations near Klerksdorp as a by-product, which means output tracks the gold price rather than the uranium price and cannot be increased on its own. National production has sat around 200 tU a year.
