Rossing Uranium Mine Vacancies

Rio Tinto

The Rössing Uranium mine

Uranium was discovered in the Namib Desert in 1928, but it was not until intensive exploration in the late 1950s that much interest was shown in the area.

After discovering numerous uranium occurrences, Rio Tinto secured the rights to the low-grade Rössing deposit in 1966.

Ten years later, in 1976, Rössing Uranium, Namibia’s first commercial uranium mine, began operating and celebrated its 40th year of production in 2016.
