SXR Uranium One agreed to buy UrAsia Energy for $3.1 billion to form the world’s second-largest uranium producer as rising demand for nuclear fuel drives prices to records. SXR, owner of South Africa’s largest undeveloped uranium deposit, bid 7.05 Canadian dollars ($6.01) a share for UrAsia, which is based in Vancouver, British Columbia, and owns mines in Central Asia. That was 13 percent more than UrAsia’s Feb. 9 closing price in Toronto, the companies said. SXR’s stock rose 6.8 percent to a record. The combined company, once all its mines are operating, will trail only Cameco in production and be the only producer in Kazakhstan, South Africa, Australia, the United States and Canada, the five largest holders of uranium deposits.

WASHINGTON — It is hard to imagine that either George W. Bush or Kim Jong Il would have agreed even a year ago to the kind of deal they have now approved. The pact, announced Tuesday, would stop, seal and ultimately disable North Korea's nuclear facilities, as part of a grand bargain that the administration has previously shunned as overly generous to a repressive country — especially one that has not yet said when or if it will give up its nuclear arsenal.
