Esmeralda starts up again in Romania
At the end of January this year Australian mining company Esmeralda was
exposed for being involved in a huge cyanide spill in Romania. The company
is part owner of the gold tailing reprocessing operation at Baia Mare. At
the time there was international outrage at the extent of the damage caused
by the accident, and it's unlikely that the environment of the region will
ever fully recover from that amount of pollution. Yet, it seems the mine is
once again up and running. Today on Earth Matters we hear from Geoff Evans,
Director of the Mineral Policy Institute, who recently visited the site.=20
The web address for the Mineral Policy Institute, which has a range of
background information about the cyanide spill in Romania, is =
