Who belongs here
Listed companies whose primary business is a nuclear fuel-cycle step other than mining: uranium enrichment, enrichment technology, or fuel design. They are tracked separately from miners because their economics ride capacity, contracts, and technology milestones rather than pounds in the ground - none of the resource-based screener metrics (EV/lb, cost, margin) apply.
Market caps and prices
Computed live from the primary listing via EODHD (shares x price x FX) and never stored. A row degrades to its cited facts alone when live data is unavailable - never an estimated cap.
Citations
Every stated fact links the company page or disclosure that states it. Facts are structural (what the company does, where, with whom) - figures that change with each quarter belong to the company's filings, not this dataset.
