Emission Watch have detected Uranium in Spon Green

TRACES of uranium found in two areas of Flintshire were yesterday sent for analysis.

The material was discovered in air-monitoring equipment belonging to the charity Emission Watch (EW).

It says it’s the first time the monitors have detected the radioactive material.

EW spokeswoman Chris Hall, of Penyffordd, said the monitors, one testing south of Buckley and the other in the Spon Green area, were set up in 2005 to check emissions from Castle Cement’s new £64m kiln in Padeswood.
