1. In September 1954, a new uranium mine had been opened at Radvanice (051/OS5)
and another was reported at Horni Misecky (051/056). The latter place was a
mountain resort, but huts and cottages have now been evacuated.
2. Test drilling for uranium was being carried out in the late summer of 1954 on
Jested Mountain (051/016).This place is linked to Liberec by mountain railway
and is a tourist resort. The area where the drilling is in progress is enclosed
and guarded.
