Mining companies say it’s safe. International water authorities say it’s an unacceptable gamble. Who is actually right about uranium mining in the Stampriet Aquifer? The truth is in the technical data and it’s not what you’ve been told.

Our water is our lifeblood. 💧
ISR uranium mining is pushing the Stampriet Aquifer toward the Point of No Return. Science shows "restoration" is a myth; we cannot un-poison a drinking water source. 🛑🇳🇦

🚨BREAKING: SAUMA engages with IAEA representatives on the proposed uranium ISL mining project in Omaheke. We are demanding an independent hydrogeological study before any "test mining" begins.
Water is not renewable. Once poisoned, it's unusable. 🚱

WHO says 30 ppb uranium in drinking water is safe. A typical ISL mine solution? 900,000 ppb. The numbers don't lie. Why risk our vital Stampriet Aquifer for these odds?
