La Jordanie, on ne lui connait pas d'ennemis, si ?

Des fois que l'Iran lance des missiles vers Israel. A moins de passer trés au Nord par la Syrie, ca va survoler le Jordanie.
Ils ont peut etre pas envie de prendre sur la tête un missile ''tombant'' un peu trop tot.

L'Iran ne lancera jamais des missiles de l'Iran vers Israël, les Mollah ne sont pas suicidaires.
Si l'Iran veut vraiment bombarder Israël, il leur suffit de tirer avec un faux-nez depuis le sud Liban ou le sud de la Syrie.

l'Iran à réussi à abattre ''par erreur'' un Boeing 737 Ukrainien le 8 janvier 2020 peu après son décollage de l'aéroport international de Téhéran.

les Mollah ne sont pas suicidaires mais ils sont pas à l'abri d'une erreur dans le système ou d'un élément qui brave les ordres.

Si l'Iran veut vraiment bombarder Israël, il leur suffit de tirer avec un faux-nez depuis le sud Liban ou le sud de la Syrie.

Oui, mais la encore le missile peut se détourner par erreur du système de navigation ou ue panne quelconque, et arriver en Jordanie.
Il y a eu un missile Russe ou Ukrainien qui avait abouti en Pologne au début du conflit en 2022. Donc ca arrive.

La Jordanie dit qu'elle ne signera pas d'accord sur l'énergie et l'eau avec Israël

AFP le 16 nov. 2023

La Jordanie a averti jeudi qu'elle ne signerait pas un accord prévu avec Israël sur un échange d'énergie solaire contre de l'eau, en raison de la guerre dans la bande de Gaza, selon son ministre des Affaires étrangères, Ayman Safadi.

"L'accord de l'énergie contre de l'eau devait être conclu le mois dernier, mais nous n'allons pas le signer", a déclaré le ministre dans une interview à la chaîne qatarie Al-Jazeera.

"Pouvez-vous imaginer un ministre jordanien assis à côté d'un ministre israélien pour signer un accord, pendant qu'Israël tue les nôtres à Gaza?" "Ce que fait Israël, a créé un climat de haine avec lequel il ne peut y avoir de relations pacifiques normales", a ajouté M. Safadi.

La Jordanie et Israël avaient convenu en novembre 2021 à Dubaï d'un accord devant permettre au royaume hachémite de fournir de l'énergie solaire à Israël, qui livrera en échange de l'eau désalinisée à son voisin, en grande partie désertique, selon une déclaration d'intention signée par les deux pays.

Le document, préparé sous l'égide des Etats-Unis, avait été signé par des ministres des deux pays.

La Jordanie, qui partage sa frontière avec Israël et la Cisjordanie, un territoire palestinien occupé par Israël depuis 1967, a signé en 1994 un traité de paix avec Israël.

Depuis le début de la guerre entre Israël et le Hamas le 7 octobre, plusieurs manifestations de solidarité avec les Palestiniens ont eu lieu à Amman pour réclamer l'annulation du traité de paix et la fermeture de l'ambassade israélienne.

La Jordanie a rappelé début novembre son ambassadeur en Israël pour protester contre l'offensive militaire israélienne dans la bande de Gaza, déclenchée après une attaque sanglante perpétrée le 7 octobre par le Hamas palestinien sur le sol israélien.

Jordan Explores Alternatives to Israeli Gas Amid Supply Concerns

by Bloomberg|Mohammad Tayseer|Monday, November 27, 2023

Jordan is exploring alternatives to natural gas supplies from Israel amid concerns of a possible interruption, state-run Al Mamlaka TV cited Prime Minister Bisher Khasawneh saying on Sunday.

Jordan has spoken with two countries in the Arabian Gulf that expressed readiness in meeting the country’s gas demands if needed, Khasawneh said.

While the gas deal between US company Noble and the National Electric Power Company under which Jordan gets Israeli gas is “not on the table for cancellation,” there are concerns over a potential disruption of gas coming from the Leviathan field in the Mediterranean Sea, Khasawneh said.

“We have not seen any signs that this will happen,” he said. “But Jordan is planning for various scenarios and possibilities amid ongoing aggression and war on the Gaza Strip.”

Jordan has explored a number of alternatives that have higher financial costs.

One such alternative would cost 45 million dinars ($63 million) a month if Jordan switches to importing LNG and another will cost 115 million dinars per month if the country switches to diesel, Khasawneh said.

Kazakhstan, Jordan team up for uranium studies
Kazakhstan's national atomic company Kazatomprom has signed a memorandum of understanding and cooperation with Jordan Uranium Mining Company.

19 February 2025

The document - signed during an official visit of Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Jordan - focuses on the joint study of uranium exploration and mining projects in Jordan in order to assess their potential for further development.

This initiative, Kazatomprom said, is aimed at refining geological characteristics and resources estimates of the deposits considering the heap leaching mining technology. Significant emphasis will be placed on environmental sustainability and economic feasibility of the project when evaluating the potential for its implementation, it added.

"Implementation of joint projects opens up promising opportunities for Jordan's nuclear industry, including new labour market opportunities, infrastructure development, and engagement of local contractors," Kazatomprom noted. "For Kazakhstan, the world's leading uranium producer, entering a new market could be a significant step toward expanding its global presence, strengthening strategic positions, and enhancing bilateral economic ties with Jordan."

It added: "Knowledge exchange, adoption of new technologies, and collaborative efforts to improve industry standards will establish a strong and sustainable foundation for the development of the uranium sector in both countries."

Kazatomprom CEO Meirzhan Yussupov said: "Partnership with Jordan Uranium Mining Company (JUMCO) opens new avenues for international cooperation and strengthens Kazakhstan's position in the global uranium industry, supporting our strategic goals to expand and efficiently utilise our resource base. Furthermore, potential development of projects beyond Kazakhstan presents a unique opportunity to gain global expertise and contribute to the sustainable development of our nations."

"This memorandum aims to develop joint uranium mining projects in Jordan and sets the potential stage for JUMCO to accelerate its pace toward commercial production of uranium in Jordan through cooperation with Kazatomprom," said JUMCO General Manager Mohammad Al-Shannag. "Indeed, it will pave the ground for JUMCO to facilitate knowledge exchange, share experience and marketing techniques with Kazatomprom, a world leader in uranium production."

JUMCO is the commercial arm of the Jordanian Atomic Energy Commission and was established in 2013 to carry out radioactive elements exploration and development in Jordan. Its exploration and development efforts have been focused on the Central Jordan Uranium Project, where a pilot plant began operation in early 2021. JUMCO later that year said the plant was fully operational.

According to the 2022 edition of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and International Atomic Energy Agency joint report on uranium resources, production and demand - known as the 'Red Book' - Jordan has 62,000 tU as inferred resources. The total includes 33,300 tU JORC-compliant in central Jordan, and an estimated 28,700 tU in the Hasa-Qatrana area. Some 100,000 tU is estimated in phosphate deposits as a possible by-product.

Jordan sees uranium as key for sustainable growth

Monday, 10 March 2025

Jordan is working on a feasibility study that will support its efforts to secure funding for commercial-scale uranium mining, according to the head of the Jordan Atomic Energy Commission's investment arm.

In an interview with The Jordan Times, Mohammad Shannag, general manager of the Jordan Uranium Mining Company (JUMCO), said the memorandum of understanding and cooperation it signed with Kazakhstan's national atomic company Kazatomprom in February will be pivotal for Jordan to accelerate its vision of becoming a future uranium supplier. The agreement was signed during an official visit of Kazakh President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev to Jordan and focuses on the joint study of uranium exploration and mining projects in Jordan in order to assess their potential for further development.

According to the 2022 edition of the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and International Atomic Energy Agency joint report on uranium resources, production and demand - known as the 'Red Book' - Jordan has some 62,000 tU of inferred uranium resources. Around 42,000 tU of ore at an average grade of 150 ppm is found in carbonaceous rocks and phosphatic deposits in central Jordan, and the shallow depth of these ores reduces excavation costs significantly, Shannag said, while uranium-bearing phosphatic rocks in areas like Al Hasa, Al Qatrana, Al Shidya, Al Risha, and Al Ruwaished hold an estimated 200,000 tonnes of uranium oxide, with significant unexplored potential. "These deposits, combined with our ongoing exploration efforts, position Jordan as a future uranium supplier."

Jordan intends to produce yellowcake domestically, rather than exporting ore for processing elsewhere, in line with national strategy to create high-value industries and jobs, Shannag said. A pilot plant at Swaqa in central Jordan became operational in 2021. "The company is now testing heap leaching technology to process hundreds of tonnes of carbonaceous uranium ores, aiming to produce over 100 kilogrammes of yellowcake per heap leaching operation. These trials will provide essential data for scaling up to commercial production," Shannag said.

A bankable feasibility study to determine the expected return on investment and secure funding for commercial-scale mining is being prepared. This will guide strategic decisions, he said, and help secure financing from potential funding sources including local and international loans, financial support from global institutions like the World Bank, and private sector investments from mining companies. "The sharp rise in global uranium prices has attracted interest from regional and international companies, making Jordan's uranium sector a promising investment opportunity," he added.
