Abstract

Content of uranium in the Sasa tailings dam material varies from 1.8 to 5.5 mg kg-1. Sasa tailings dam
failure cause discharge of material in the Lake Kalimanci. The uranium content in surficial lake sediments
in years, before the tailings dam failure varied from 2.4 to 5.4 mg kg-1 and after the failure from 3.6 to 10.4
mg kg-1. Meanwhile Lake Kalimanci water contains lower concentrations of uranium (0.9-1.1 μg ml-1).
Water from Lake Kalimanci is being used for irrigation of the nearby Kochani valley, where the uranium
content in soils varies from 73 to 182 mg kg-1.
