Iran's Nuclear Archive Confirms Gchine Uranium Mine and Yellowcake Production Plant Never Stopped Operating
(Foundation for Defense of Democracies) David Albright, Olli Heinonen, Frank Pabian and Andrea Stricker - Iran's nuclear archive, captured by Israel, contains documentary evidence showing Iran's deceptions in its declarations to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) about its past military nuclear activities. One case of deception involves the Gchine uranium mine and yellowcake production plant in southern Iran near Bandar Abbas. Gchine represented key nuclear source material toward Iran's production of highly enriched uranium (HEU) for nuclear weapons. The new documents show that Gchine was originally part of Iran's covert nuclear fuel cycle aimed at the production of nuclear weapons and directly contradict Iran's multiple declarations to the IAEA.
