Head of Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Ali-Akbar Salehi said Wednesday that layers of resources which may contain uranium have been discovered in the country, the semi-official Mehr news agency reported.
It is the priority of Iran to launch the discovery and extraction operation of uranium resources, Salehi said.
Thanks to the good budget allocated for the discovery projects, considerable needs of the uranium can hopefully be met from the country's resources in the eight-year span, he said.
Iran and Russia started on Saturday to load fuel rods to a reactor at the Bushehr power plant, the first nuclear power plant in Iran.
