This book examines the occurrence of uranium in its natural setting
in the United States, as well as its industrial uses and the
methods employed over the last century to extract it from ore
deposits. In addition, this book explores the nature of solid and
liquid wastes generated by extraction methods, and the various
reclamation and remediation methods which can environmentally
restore the extraction site. The potential radiogenic cancer risks
from abandoned uranium mines are also explored, as are the
environmental and geographical issues associated with those mines.
