PISHGAM (PIONEER) ENERGY INDUSTRIES | Security Council
Pishgam (Pioneer) Energy Industries was listed as “has participated in construction of the Uranium Conversion Facility at Esfahan.”
Days before the U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran's nuclear program, International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Rafael Grossi stated that Iran was constructing a third enrichment site near Isfahan. There is an underground tunnel just to the north of Isfahan, which is likely the site of the new enrichment facility.
Third, Iran may be pursuing a clandestine uranium enrichment facility at Pickaxe Mountain, with the hopes that this facility could enrich Iran's existing stockpile of 400 kg of 60 percent enriched uranium.
The scope, precision, and breadth of the U.S. and Israeli military strikes indicate that U.S. and Israeli intelligence assets deeply penetrated Iran's nuclear and military programs. In the years leading up to the June 2025 strikes, Iran's nuclear program suffered repeated targeted losses, including sabotage and assassinations.
