“The Unesco World Heritage Committee has accepted Tanzania’s request to make changes to the territory of the Selous Game Reserve to pave way for uranium mining,” said Natural Resources and Tourism Minister, Khamis Kagasheki.
The Tanzanian government reportedly has said that it has a minimum of 54 million pounds of uranium oxide deposits.
Environmental groups have warned that toxic mining activities at the plant could harm the ecologically sensitive reserve.
