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 GĂ©ologie 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/
