Abstract:

Workers in underground uranium mines work chronically in the opening radiation environment, the radiation hazards they suffered has attracted public’s attention. So some effective measures must be carried out to control worker’s received radiation dose. Fault tree analysis is a deductive system safety analysis method, which can offer decision basis for accident prevention and safety management. Based on the above two advantages, firstly, the paper analyzes the radiation hazards in underground uranium mines and their influencing factors. Then, the fault tree of radiation hazards is established

Abstract An environmental radiological surveillance programme has been in progress around the most significant Portuguese uranium mines, from 1976 to 1983. A short description is given of the mines of Urgeirica (including uranium milling), Freixiosa, Pinhal de Souto and Bica. The results of the surveillance programme developed in the vicinity of these facilities are presented and the identified critical pathways are discussed. One of these pathways is the consumption of cabbage, which is an important component in the diet of the Portuguese population. The exposure of the critical groups, due t

Abstract:

Abstract The environmental radioactivity levels of two typical uranium mines in the south of China were investigated and analysed. According to the characteristics of uranium mines, the relevant parameters, including the surface gamma ray dose rate, concentration of radon in the air and concentration of radionuclides in the soil and surface water, of two uranium mines were evaluated and analysed. The results show that residents in the mining area were exposed to average maximum annual effective doses of 1.69 and 1.58 mSv due to the inhalation of radon and its daughters, while the employees rec

Abstract:

Since the 1950s, formal epidemiologic investigations among uranium miners have yielded valuable information about lung cancer hazard from exposure to radon progeny. Early cohort studies used thousands of measurements of radon progeny in mines and a job-exposure matrix approach to assign dose estimates to miners. Over time, exposure estimation in uranium and other underground mines has become increasingly refined, making possible 25 years ago a landmark pooled study that permitted quantitative risk characterization across 11 populations of miners. More recently, case-control studies of resident

Abstract:

A typical paddy field downstream of uranium tailing reservoir was selected to study the distribution of heavy metal and the correlativity of uranium. The results showed that the content of heavy metals in soil has a gradual decreasing trend with increasing distance from the tailings. The contents of Cu、Cd are directly proportional to the vertical depth, the content of Cr is inversely proportional to the vertical depth. Meanwhile, the content of uranium is evidently correlated with Cu and Cr and no correlativity with Cd.

Namibia's Husab uranium mine is the Chinese government's largest investment in Africa to date. This article develops a theoretical framework of hybridity to analyse the (geo)political and ecological implications of China's rising global influence in uranium mining. Drawing on multiple-methods fieldwork, the article explains how Husab has resuscitated Namibia's uranium industry and facilitated the political goals of both Chinese and Namibian leaders. Husab's materialisation of “South–South solidarity,” however, also appears to be deepening the marginalisation of minority communities near uraniu

Uraniferous sandstone deposits commonly resulted when uranium in groundwater precipitated in reducing environments caused by degradation of ancient wood and organic debris.

These observations are applicable to primary ore zones that are located

Abstract:

Over 500 abandoned uranium mines are located on the Navajo Reservation. Different pathways of environmental uranium exposure have been studied with respect to the Navajo people including water, soil, and plants; however, uranium exposure from traditional Navajo food, specifically mutton (sheep), has not been reported. This study focuses on mutton consumption in the small community of Cameron, Arizona, located in the southwestern region of the Navajo Nation and initiated after community members expressed concern with the uranium exposure of their sheep. Preliminary investigation into the presen

Abstract:

The paper presents a concept for disposal of Class 2 and Class 3 radioactive waste in existing workings and chambers in the underground uranium mines of the Priargunsky Industrial Mining and Chemical Union PJSC with isolation of radioactive waste storage chambers using paste backfilling made with processed uranium ore materials and sealing of cracks in host rock by injection consolidation. The need is shown to enhance the strength of radioactive waste containers to increase the number of tiers in the storage blocks to make better use of the available chamber space. Data is provided on the fore
