Vertical distribution of uranium mill tailings contaminants in the Langley Bay, Lake Athabasca sediments / S.R. Joshi, D.T. Waite and R.F. Platford.: En13-5/88-46E-PDF

"The Gunnar uranium mine and mill complex generated about five million tonnes of tailings which were discharged into the nearby Mudford Lake during 1955-64. Subsequently, the tailings were allowed to flow into a small basin and then into Langley Bay which connects with Lake Athabasca, Saskatchewan via a narrow channel. The present study was initiated in 1983 in collaboration with Environmental Protection, Western and Northern Region to assess the movement of the tailings contaminants in Langley Bay"--Executive summary.
