I might have posted this before. Obviously Greenland has copied the Nova Scotia 100 ppm Uranium limit for no reason apart someone had this in place, why you should think about it.

Very interesting reading if you have time



"MR. DICKIE: Could I tell you how the 100 came to pass? Ten years after the moratorium, roughly, the Department of Natural Resources decided they would do an economic study to see or determine what the value should be. At that time, in their opinion, they felt that 500 parts per million could be economically viable. In other words, if you've got an ore deposit, 500 ppm, that perhaps it might be economic.

So they said okay, we'll cut that by one-fifth and we'll say 100 parts per million. There's no way that anybody would want to mine 100 parts per million, so that's the level. It had nothing to do with safety, it had nothing to do with anything except a fraction of what they thought at the time might be economically viable. That's how the number came to pass - nothing to do with safety at all."
