Iranian Key Uranium Field Saghand Uranium Mine is situated in the  (Yazd Province). It is considered as Iran’s largest Uranium mine.

 It uses both open-pit and underground techniques; with depths exceeding 1,000 feet which is designed to feed the Ardakan yellowcake production plant.

The Ardakan Yellowcake Production Plant, also known as the Shahid Rezayee Nejad Complex, is the most crucial and critical Iranian nuclear facility located 35 km north of Ardakan in Yazd province.

These Uranium oxide concentrates (yellowcake) is transported from mines to conversion plants, and fuel assemblies are transported to power reactors, often by sea.

This is the reason Iran controls the Strait of Hormuz.
