The uranium itself has a very low level of radioactivity, -comparable with granite. Virtually all the radioactive material from the associated minerals in the ore processed ends up in the tailings dam.

Once approved, open pits or shafts and drives are dug, waste rock and overburden is placed in engineered dumps. Tailings from the ore processing must be placed in engineered dams or underground. Finally the whole site must be rehabilitated at the end of the project. Meanwhile air and water pollution must be avoided.

These processes are common to all metalliferous mining, and are well recognised and understood.

Happy greeny?
