Nuclear power versus uranium resources. Uranium industry in the Czech Republic
Description
Based on a governmental decision, uranium mining in the Czech Republic should eventually be abandoned completely. This is associated with a lot of tedious and expensive land reclamation work, particularly because solution mining was mostly applied and large areas of land, with precious ground water, remain heavily polluted with sulfuric acid. The past, present and future situation is described in detail. (P.A.)
