Dagan To Dig For Uranium In Negev
2012-04-05
Gulliver Energy granted first-ever domestic permit to explore for radioactive metallic element

The Water and Energy Ministry has granted Gulliver Energy a domestic uranium exploration permit, Ynet learned Tuesday.
 
The company, headed by former Mossad Chief Meir Dagan, will dig for the radioactive metallic element in the Negev.
It's good to give former intelligence heads something to do to keep busy and out of trouble.
The permit given to Gulliver Energy is the first of its kind. Ministry sources said that the license was not exclusive and that other companies can bid for uranium exploration permits as well.
 
A blurb by Gulliver Energy said that the company's permit, allotted for a period of one year, will allow it to explore for uranium across 12,000 acres stretching between Arad and Sodom.
 
A feasibility study done in the area suggests that there is a good chance that there radioactive elements can be found there.
 
Initial testing was done at shallow depth and the company plans to conduct further testing, in various depths, in order to explore the type of elements in the ground.
