Canyon Mine

Posted: Monday, May 9, 2011 12:18 pm

The Canyon Mine in the Kaibab National Forest south of the Grand Canyon removed uranium from deep within the earth during the 1980s. Today, with uranium prices at historic highs, a company is planning to reopen the mine. Environmental groups say they worry about the mine’s potential impact on groundwater feeding seeps and springs in the Grand Canyon. (Cronkite News Service Photo by Tara Alatorre)
