Uranium mining a step closer in Queensland
The recommencement of uranium mining in Queensland is a step closer after Mines Minister Andrew Cripps released the government's uranium strategy action plan.
The plan covers the implementation of best practice regulatory framework for uranium mining in the state, encompassing environmental standards, safety and health, economic and community development, indigenous opportunities and native title.
Cripps said uranium exports had the potential to generate significant revenue for Queensland over the next two decades with uranium deposits in the state worth an estimated $10 billion.
“The government’s focus is to ensure all the uranium-specific regulatory guidelines and protocols are in place to begin assessing applications from mid-July 2014,” Cripps said.
The Queensland Government announced in October that uranium mining would recommence in the state, overturning a ban which has lasted since 1982.
CoreSMART is a revolutionary new polymeric technology for use as a mineral coring fluid, or slurry. It is based on advanced nano-chemistry which
allows unprecedented molecular engineering of CoreSMART's polymeric structure. Through this capability to pre-engineer CoreSMART, we are able
to impart the capacity for a CoreSMART fluid to restructure or modify itself to environmental changes or demands within a predefined framework.
This permits the coring fluid to alter both its physical characteristics and performance properties and allows it to more optimally response to a specific
challenge or to perform a desired function. Unlike today's typical coring fluids, which require a variety of different materials to make a high performance
slurry, CoreSMART is ready to be mixed into water straight from the package
