Recently a uranium deposit was discovered in the south-west area of Cornwall and Kent, and preliminary drillings have been carried out. The results shjowed a small but exceedingly rich uranium deposit. Mining on a limited scale has begun, but thus far we have no buyers.

Is anyone willing to buy this high-grade ore from us? We will accept either weapons or money. Preferably naval weapons, but anything will do.

The Federated Empire is always searching for competitively priced raw materials to fuel our economy. What else have you to offer? We already have large uranium mines within our country, but you can never have enough uranium. Nevertheless, we may also be interested in your other exports. We shall have our liasons at our embassy make several bids for the ore in question. Remuneration shall be in the form of cash.
