Areva Tries Whitewashing by Selling Uranium Claims<br/>

Mining plans in Sokli area include uranium<br/>
−
The globally operating French nuclear company Areva has sold all their uranium claims in Finland to the mining company Mawson, while the company at the same time bought a significant share of Mawson to benefit from the exploitation of these deposits. It seems that Areva wants to keep their name clean from pollution impacts of their mining activities in Finland. But it doesn't mean that they give up - much more likely is that their will to mine uranium in Finland becomes stronger as another big company is involved in the projects now.

Norwegian company Yara plans to start mining phosphate- and niobiore in Sokli area, eastern Finnish Lapland. The ore contains also uranium and other radioactive substances. Sokli mines would be opened in the middle of the herding area of reindeers and would seriously harm reideer herders' source of livelihood. Young reindeer herding families in the area build their future on reindeer herding. The planned tailing dams of the mines would also destroy the local salmon rivers. The mines would operate for couple of decades and afterwards the whole eastern Lapland would be wasteland. [http://www.save-sokli.com/ read more]
