Jordan could export uranium by the year 2020, according to the president of the Atomic Energy Commission of Jordan, Khaled Toukan. Jordan has 65,000 tons of uranium, which is enough to meet the energy needs of the country for 90 years, Toukan was quoted by the official news agency Petra.

Jordan will build the first plant for the production of uranium in 2015, Toukan said.

Jordan is committed to its plan to build a nuclear reactor by 2022 with a total power capacity of 2,000 megawatts, said Toukan, adding that the plant will provide electricity at a lower cost. The nuclear program is crucial for Jordan, which imports about 97 percent of its energy needs per year, which sums up to around 20 percent of the country gross domestic product, Toukan noted.

I think they should look towards using it for themselves rather than for Export. Also save money in electricity and invest in education with R&D.

Future days, Insha allah we'll hear about " Jordan to enriching uranium " :agree:
Yes it will be, that's why it turned to Russia to build the two nuclear reactors after American refusal to let Jordan produce enriched uranium on it's own despite the extensive guarantees that's for peaceful purposes. However, a country like Jordan will never think of producing nuclear weapon.

Nope. Its not any news for you at all - good or bad.

Jordan under international treaty cannot sell Uranium to any country not covered by NPT or exempted by NSG(your favourite neighbour).

No one is talking about 'selling'.

Any transfer to Pakistan is not happening mate. Its kept under lock and key and monitored specifically so that transfers to countries like Pakistan, North Korea and Iran dont happen.
