Public to be briefed on uranium mine plans
Posted March 3, 2010 13:43:00
Map: Port Augusta 5700 A proposal for a new uranium mine in north-east South Australia will be the subject of two public meetings this evening.

Heathgate Resources wants to expand its operations near Lake Frome.

The company operates the Beverley uranium mine and is a partner with Quasar Resources in the nearby Four Mile mine.

The proposed Beverley north mine will be situated about 10 kilometres from the existing mine and will operate as a satellite extension to it.

The new mine will use the same in-situ leaching method for resource recovery.

Heathgate says production will remain at the current capacity of 1,500 tonnes of uranium a year.

Public consultation sessions will be held this evening in Port Augusta and at Arkaroola, with an environment report and mining lease application expected to be released in the middle of the year.
