An investigation by Lighthouse Reports and the Financial Times has revealed that thousands of tonnes of uranium may have been exported from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to China via cobalt shipments over the past two decades. The estimated amount ranges from 2,000 to 5,000 tonnes, which was not recorded in official uranium export records. The companies involved have disputed these findings.
