The Arizona One mine is a uranium mine located in Arizona about 35 miles (56 km) south of Fredonia.[1][2]

Arizona One represents one of the largest uranium reserves in the United States having estimated reserves of 10.3 million tonnes of ore grading 0.68% uranium.[3]

Arizona One is scheduled to close in early 2014 due to ore depletion and low prices.[1]
