title: Assessment of the Influence of the Process of Underground Uranium Leaching on Soil and Groundwater
abstract: Urgency.During mining of uranium deposits -by the method of underground leaching of uranium, the soil and groundwater are contaminated to a varying degree, by the radionuclides of the uranium decay chain -U 238 , U 234 , Th 230 , Ra 226 , Rn 222 , Bi 214 , Pb214, Po 210 , etc.The reason for this phenomenon is a violation of the technological regulations for pumping, injection, leakage, condition of pipelines, improper organization of transportation of productive solutions, etc.Soil contamination
