Treva E. Klingbiel is President and principal of TradeTech. She has been involved with the commercial aspects of the nuclear fuel cycle for nearly three decades. Her principal areas of work have been uranium supply and demand and uranium market pricing. Klingbiel has in-depth knowledge and experience with strategic inventory study and nuclear fuel procurement practices. As President of TradeTech, she is responsible for overseeing TradeTech’s market research and information services, including a wide scope of competitive and strategic market analyses, market growth expectations, and price trends prepared for individual clients. Before forming TradeTech in 1995, Klingbiel was associated with CONCORD/NUEXCO where she was President of NUEXCO Information Services and Concord Information Services. Prior to joining NUEXCO, she worked for Public Service Company of Colorado as a Nuclear Fuel Engineer where her major responsibility was nuclear fuel procurement. In addition, she previously held positions with Texas Utilities Generating Co. and Middle South Utilities where her primary responsibilities included procurement of nuclear fuel, development and implementation of nuclear fuel procurement strategies, and performance of cost analyses.

Duncan Craib is Chief Executive Officer, Managing Director of Boss Resources Limited. He is Chief Executive Officer, Managing Directoruranium mines. Prior to commencing with Boss Resources, Mr Craib served as Finance Director to Swakop Uranium (Pty) Ltd and was heavily involved in the US$2.5 billion development and construction of its world class Husab uranium mine in Namibia. Its principal shareholder, China General Nuclear Power Corporation (CGN), is the largest nuclear power operator in China and largest nuclear power constructor world-wide. Husab is currently being commissioned and once in production will be one of the largest mining and processing uranium projects in the world, mining 150Mt on an annual basis and generating 15 Mt of ore to produce 15 Mlbs of uranium oxide. Prior to 2012, Mr Craib served in London as CFO to Kalahari Minerals Plc under the Chairmanship of Mr Mark Hohnen. The company’s key investment was a 42.74% shareholding in Extract Resources Ltd and its subsidiary Swakop Uranium (Pty) Ltd, which was ultimately the subject of a corporate transaction in 2012 valued at US$2.2 billion.

Since completing my PhD, I have worked continuously as a geoscientist within the mining industry, at Olympic Dam (one of the world’s largest metalliferous ore deposits). My primary responsibilities are to identify, develop and implement productivity improvement opportunities and to sustainably reduce the cost of producing marketable metals. This role also includes identifying potential new revenue metals (e.g. green technology critical metals) or ones which may pose environmental challenges in the future.

I have consistently strived to advance the understanding of how Olympic Dam, the archetype Fe-oxide Cu-Au-U deposit (IOCG-U), formed. This research has taken me down two seemingly separate, yet intricately interwoven paths: 1) cost effective discovery of more high-grade ore within the Olympic Dam deposit and discovery of mineralised occurrences of IOCG-U deposits outside of Olympic Dam, and 2) comprehensive characterisation of these mineralised occurrences so that they can be economically exploited (e.g. geometallurgy). The link between these two research strands is mineralogy. Ore deposits consist of minerals, we mine/extract minerals from the Earth’s crust, and minerals are the fundamental driver of metallurgical performance and efficiency. If I can unravel how the minerals formed, and why they occur where they occur, then I can determine where I am located within any ore deposit and how best to produce marketable products from the ore deposit.
