Also you are directly dependent on the country where you get your uranium from. Which for Europe was/is mostly Russia. That also does not seem a good idea.
Interesting, but you just have to keep in mind the definition of reserve, where profitability is part of the calculation. Also reserve does not tell much about extraction.
East Germany, the GDR, was the 4th largest producer of uranium ore in the world. The uranium was mined in the Soviet run Wismuth (later Soviet-German) facilities on the German side of the Ore Mountains.

Akchually, Czechoslovakia used to export uranium to the USSR because it had the greatest, most accessible reserves of the Eastern Bloc.
That may be correct, but recently it looked like this:
The Czech reserves (which are still more than US’s) were probably just more readily available or easier to purify.
Anyway, I’d prefer this list because your chart is EU supply only.
