In the middle of Germany
Uranium ore mining left behind huge environmental damage at the mining and processing sites in Ronneburg, Seelingstädt, Crossen, Aue/Schlema, Pöhla, Königstein and Dresden-Gittersee.
Besides the head office in Chemnitz, Wismut GmbH has seven remediation sites in Saxony and Thuringia. These are assigned to the main areas of Aue, Königstein and Ronneburg.
The so-called abandoned Wismut sites in Saxony were not covered by the provisions of the 1991 Wismut Act and are therefore not the responsibility of Wismut GmbH for remediation. An administrative agreement between the federal government and the Free State of Saxony in 2003 and two subsequent extensions provided funds for the remediation of the old sites in Saxony until 2035. Wismut GmbH took over the project management and implements the remediation steps.
