Original Note:
It's true - Burkina Faso doesn't report any Uranium ressources or mines: https://www-pub.iaea.org/MTCD/publications/PDF/WOR_URA_web.pdf But... it should be noted that already in 2017 traces of Uranium have been detected by the Bureau des Mines et de la Géologie du Burkina (BUMIGEB) in the sub-soil near Essakane: https://www.laborpresse.net/burkina-faso-des-traces-de-petrole-et-duranium-dans-le-sous-sol/
