  • Problems Of Uranium Mining
    By: "Brayan Peter" | - Tailings squander

    Even the utmost grade deposits have less than 1% uranium. So vast amounts of ore have to be processed to obtain useful quantities of the uranium. The leftover waste rock is known tailings. In the course of processing it is crushed to a well powder, which is nearly as radioactive as the uranium itself. It is perilous for more than 250,000 years, which might as well be eternally. These tailings need to be secluded from the environment to avoid a can ...

  • The True Cost Of Nuclear Decommissioning
    By: Dominic Donaldson | - Nuclear decommissioning is an expensive business. It is estimated that the decommissioning of existing sites in the UK will cost in the region of 70 billion GBP, but this is not taking the timescale of such operations into account. As the process happens in stages, the true cost is hard to determine. An example is the cost of dismantling the Brennilis Nuclear Power Plant in France: to date, the facility had soaked up 400 million GPB (twenty times the estimate), and more work still needs to be ...

  • Radon From Granite Causes Cancer
    By: Huligar | - In what seems to be a genuine concern of the effects of radon emissions in residential homes, a certain website from a non-profit organization out of Houston has made it a point to imply without scientific proof, that natural stone could be a major contributor of radon in a household.

  • Even Higher Uranium Prices Ahead This Summer
    By: James E. Finch | - RUSSIA
