Uranium One Group (part of Rosatom) and the Brazilian holding company Diamanté group, represented by NBEPar, have agreed to create a joint venture called Nadina Minerals. The agreement was signed on the sidelines of the Nuclear Summit 2026 international forum in Rio de Janeiro.
The partners intend to obtain all necessary permits, conduct geological exploration in promising areas, and build modern mining and processing facilities. The focus is on the extraction and processing of metals that are critical to high-tech sectors of the economy. Rosatom emphasized that the project will strengthen international cooperation and make a strategic contribution to the development of the Brazilian economy.
Rosatom has been working with Brazil in the nuclear field for a long time, supplying enriched uranium for the Angra Nuclear Power Plant and providing services for the conversion of Brazilian uranium. Uranium One Group is one of the largest uranium mining companies in the world, with assets in Kazakhstan, Tanzania, and Namibia, and is also developing non-uranium projects in the field of rare earth metals.
