Nuclear energy growth forecast by Bureau of Mines
The Bureau of Mines forecasts nuclear energy use rising significantly by 1980, with total power from nuclear possibly reaching around 12 percent. Humble Oil & Refining Co asserts growth may be less dramatic in share, but still substantial. The projection suggests a shift in U S energy generation from fossil fuels to nuclear, despite the lack of alarm from industry leaders.

Nuclear fuel supply outlook and global oil exploration trends
A Chase Manhattan briefing warns that meeting 1980 uranium demand will require about 600000 tons of yellowcake with reserves a quarter of that amount. It notes that exploration has only begun on much of the US sedimentary uranium, while the AAPG reports 1967 saw major oil and gas discoveries across Europe, the Soviet Union, and the Americas, with US exploration leading global counts and 2.9 billion barrels of crude discovered that year.

Nuclear Power Expansion Raises U S Energy Outlook
Government import bans on uranium persist but a bank notes the United States would benefit if restrictions ease. Canada holds large reserves yet faces a nuclear era threshold with supply issues. Utilities ordered plants adding up to 56 percent of existing capacity, with nuclear projects surpassing one third of recent orders. By 1980 nuclear energy could rival coal as a primary electricity source.
