In comparison, there is little knowledge of the status and environmental impacts of rehabilitated uranium mines in dry climates. Mary Kathleen and Radium Hill represent first generation Australian uranium mines, which are located in semi-arid regions. The aim of this communication is to report on the current environmental status and potential hazards of these former uranium mine sites. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Uranium, Mining and Hydrogeology, p. 335-340 | Publisher: | Springer | Place of Publication: | Berlin, Germany | ISBN: | 9783540877455 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 040299 Geochemistry not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 961205 Rehabilitation of Degraded Mining Environments | HERDC Category Description: | B1 Chapter in a Scholarly Book | Publisher/associated links: | http://books.google.com.au/books?id=49b-beOfaAUC&lpg=PR2&pg=PA335 http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/27273322 |
