Remediation efforts at the former Gunnar Mine and Mill Site reached a new milestone last spring—with the first stage of revegetation coming to fruition. Learn how this long-abandoned uranium mine and mill has undergone a large environmental transformation over the past decade.

One scientist is studying possible measures to see how well Anthroposols can supply nutrients to Canada's boreal forest.
