SUA Holdings Limited: Swedish Parliament Votes To Make It Legal To Extract Uranium
SUA holds Sweden's largest portfolio of conventional uranium resources (non-Alum shale hosted). The exploration permits are Björklund nr 1 and 2, Björkråmyran nr 3, Kvarnån nr 5, Nöjdfjället nr 1, and Skuppesavon nr 2, totalling 16,138 hectares.
Noora Ahola, Director of SUA, comments: "This regulatory development coincides with Sweden's expansion of nuclear power and means that uranium exploration and extraction will now be possible. This represents a significant shift in Sweden's uranium policy and a real opportunity to develop uranium mining projects in the country."
"Moving forward, it will be important to demonstrate - in close dialogue with local communities - how uranium can be extracted safely, in compliance with permitting requirements, and in an environmentally responsible manner. We look forward to engaging and working closely with all stakeholders as we advance."
Sweden is taking several steps towards expanding its current six nuclear reactors, which today account for 30 percent of Sweden's energy mix. In August 2025, the Swedish state-owned energy company Vattenfall communicated its intention to proceed with nuclear power construction that includes new capacity of 1,500 MW[1]. This venture is also made possible through partial state funding and financial guarantees. Today, Sweden uses 1,500-2,000 tons of uranium (U308) annually, all of which is imported[2].
The overturned uranium mining ban will mean:
- It will be possible to apply for exploration permits with the Swedish Mining Inspectorate to explore for uranium. It will be possible to apply for an exploitation permit (Sw. Bearbetningskoncession) to extract uranium. It will be possible to make commercial use of uranium already extracted from polymetallic deposits.
The exploration assets held by SUA are located in the Swedish municipalities of Arjeplog, Boden, Krokom, and Åsele.
