This wall of radioactive sand, 10 metres high, holds back a veritable lake of similar material left over from the defunct Stanrock uranium mining operation. There are 130 million tonnes of this stuff in the Elliot Lake area; it will remain dangerously radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years. The mining companies are seeking permission from the Canadian government to flood the tailings and then to abandon them.<\/p>\n
