Harmony Gold Mining
Harmony Gold Mining is a ZAF company active in the nuclear fuel chain as mining.
A gold miner that is also South Africa's only significant uranium source, recovering it as a by-product at the Vaal River operations. Output therefore tracks the gold price rather than the uranium price and cannot be increased on its own.

Harmony Gold Mining in context
Harmony Gold Mining has 1 facility on record in 1 country (South Africa): 1 operating.
How these are worked out: shares and ranks use the world totals cited in the table, and only named companies are ranked (unnamed or country-level entries in a source are not). A facility with no stated capacity is counted as a facility but adds nothing to a capacity figure. Vendor figures count operating units where this company is the recorded reactor vendor; ages count from the start-up year on record, and build times run from construction start to grid connection, as on the age and build-times pages.
