bjd - arkaroola april 2010 - dg yudnamutana hodgkinsons af

hodgkinsons and the yudnamutana gorge - a great spot for a uranium mine do you think?

 

the south australian government, believe it or not, thinks 'possibly so' and calls this 'balance'!

 

the scars and platforms you can see criss-crossing this hillside are evidence of some of the mineral exploration history of the area - some very recent - some decades old; all, apparently, 'rehabilitated' to meet the standards of the state department of minerals and energy

 

note the extensive erosion still taking place at this site
