| Review: | Conventional mining and milling of uranium and thorium ores generate large amounts of waste material. Whatever processes are used, some of the waste materials are radiologically and chemically hazardous and need to be controlled. Monitoring and surveillance are important components for the safe management of mining and milling operations. This Safety Report provides technical information on the development of effective monitoring and surveillance programmes. |
