After nuclear agreement approval of uranium and coal mining next?

The Paks nuclear power plant between the Hungarian and Russian state-building agreement sparked a major debate in society. More and more people are asking after the done nuclear power plant deal, are uranium and coal mining in resurrection?

Hungary's energy management not only because of the overhead combat, but also for future ideas regarding also been the focus of attention. Later the stock market news also reported that, Prime Minister Viktor Orban and Vladimir Putin, the Russian president recently agreed to the Paks nuclear power plant for further development. On this basis, the two russian nuclear 1,200-MW reactors to be built will cost 10 to 12 billion euros (more than three trillion forints). The Moscow investment of approximately 12 billions euro is better than the market rate loan would offer on a 30-year term.

Public opinions keresztüzében

After a serious public debate triggered a mass of decision statements were published. Including an interesting announcement of the intended main contractor Rosatom Russian corporation. Although the ink barely dry on the contractual agreement between the two countries, the company's executives have already rushed to the declaration of the Rosatom plans to give Hungarian suppliers a proportion of 40% when it starts the planned expansion of the Paks nuclear power plant tenders.

Many professionals have long been saying that and restarting uranium mining in the Mecsek area would have serious social benefits. The new jobs created could contribute to society and its surroundings, stop migration of recent years and assist the economic development of the region.

No engineering fantasy

This research shows. Greater research has estimated the unconfirmed resource. The Australian company called Wildhorse Energy did serious research work in the area of exploration opportunities, and lions in relation to uranium mining company against feelings dissipate.

Also, the facts are that one and a half years ago, the formation of the Hungarian Uranium Ltd. in Wildhorse municipality and two state-owned company, MVM, and Bátaapáti low and intermediate level radioactive waste disposal program research phase of an underground leader, Mecsekérc Ltd. attendance. Public participation was meager because the resulting collaboration, but it is an indicator. Now, after the announcement of the Paks nuclear power plant development, it seems not at all by accident.
