Evolution of contamination in the Ploučnice River Basin (Bohemia) due to uranium mining in the period 1992-2009

Original language description

A study was set up to follow the effects of uranium ore mining in the Czech Republic and its environmental aspekt. This study assesses evolution of radioactivite pollution in the Ploučnice River Basin, which was impacted by waste water from uranium mining and processing from Stráž pod Ralskem location. Period includes the beginning of the geological survey in the 60´s after the end of mining extraction and clean-up launch of acid leaching solutions in the 90´s. Consequently to discharges of mining water, bottom sediments, and biomas of aquatic organism in the Ploučnice River were contaminated by radioactiv substance. Samples of water, bottom sediments and biomas were used for laboratory testing. The observation programme included also in-situ monitoring of soil contamination in flood plain areas along the Ploučnice River. In-situ metod and laboratory charakterizations of contaminated sites continued up to date.
