The Fly-Killing Wasps of Costa Rica

<p>The IAEA, through its technical cooperation programme, has dispatched an expert mission on 10-14 July 2017 to provide advice and guidance for the recovery of disused sealed radioactive sources (DSRS) from El Mochito Mine, an underground zinc and silver mine located some 200 kilometres north-west of the capital city, Tegucigalpa.</p>
<p>The El Mochito mine has been in operation since 1948 and uses nuclear gauges for level and density measurements.
Assistance has also been provided for the transfer of the sources from the mine to Honduras’ centralized storage facility. The sources had been used in the past for level and density measurements in the mine.</p>
