Environment Ministry concerned over proposed re-opening of mines in Southern Hungary
The Hungarian Ministry of Environment and Water is concerned about plans to resume coal and uranium mining in the southern Mecsek mountains, minister Gabor Fodor told journalists. The ministry would prefer businesses to turn their attention to opportunities in renewable energy, but if plans to re-open mines in this area turn serious, the ministry will be strict about the environmental licencing procedures, Fodor said. The Australian-owned WildHorse Energy Hungary has plans to restart a uranium mining project in the Mecsek in 2010-2011. (MTI Dec. 7, 2007)
