Uranium resources can be extracted from the ground in three ways: open pit, underground, and in-situ leach (ISL). Open pit mining, also known as strip mining, is the removal of surficial soils and uneconomic rock to get at the ore below. Ore grades are normally less than 0.5%. This is type of mining is only possible if the uranium ore is near the surface (normally less than 400 ft).
