For reasons I'm not quite sure of I've just spent the last few moments of my life looking at Aditnow's peculiar Facebook site upon which there is this link:

http://kcap89.wordpress.com/ 

Is it as full on tinfoil-hat as it sounds?

what the article is missing is any reference at all to readings being taken at the vents, it seems to be implying that the levels there would be higher than background radiation. unless they have that evidence I wouldnt give it a 2nd thought

Sound like a bunch of fruit loops to me.

Just read that link, can't understand some of the stuff ie: sweating....presumably water vapour condensation, mines down here get warm with or without some nuke stuff bubbling away.
If that's the sum total of their reasoning then I am not convinced. Buryng nuke stuff in a village doesn't seem logical, but then what do I know....maybe they did.

Lozz.

Not beyond 'some' possibility.
Rolls Royce were afterall found to br dumping low-level waste at Crich.

Any reports of "glow in the dark" bats yets? 😢 😢

Read about the waste shaft at Dounreay and think about what was dumped in there.....

lol hmm sounds like a bunch or paranoid yogurt weavers, perhaps if they are so worried about radiation they should move out of cornwall !seems to me whatever it is they are thinking is what u would expect really , even any so called sweating is just warm moist air the area is on high ground with vast areas above water ..quite a few shafts are open even a gunnis or two and air still flows between them , from a logical point of view wouldnt it be far easier to dump waste in the sea somewhere rather than surreptitiously bring it all the way down here and sneak it in tresavean ?

I live very close to the Tresavean site and know it very well. The photos of a bat castle during construction, is not the one that is seen later on standing alone with a few saplings planted around it.
The only large scale works on the site was at Man Engine Shaft, where a grilled bat castle with a viewing platform 5 metres below ground level was installed. This large construction was to preserve the features at the side of the shaft for posterity, it being the site of the first Man Engine in Cornwall. There is also a grille to enable you to view this feature, behind the bat castle.
The other Bat castle looks like it may be part of Penstruthal sett, but it's difficult to tell from the picture.
All the shafts up there are hellish deep so any waste would have to be in small packages to ensure it went down deep. If any at all was dumped they would have had to remove the grilles off the bat castles or, as is being suggested by them, removal of the castle, dump stuff and then make good afterwards with a small vent pipe inside a cairn. I wonder where this story originated?

Totally agree, lets see evidence - Maybe anyone rich enough to own a decent geiger counter might want to pay a visit?

Is what is what. The batcastles allow bats to access pretty much all of the workings above adit. The plugged shafts are there simply because bat castles (of that sort) are very very very expensive. Plugs are expensive, but I can quite imagine that the man engine castle ran quite towards 6 figures to design/build. I think I heard a figure of £130k for both of them. (but that could also be a wild rumour).

I can't imagine Carnon (who put them in) mucking about with nuclear waste!

A little bit of information is a dangerous thing and I gather there are rumours circulating about what may or may not have been slung in the dump years ago. This may have an element of truth in it, but before you know it, it will be Bin Laden building a hydrogen bomb.

Edit:- not all the plugged shafts are shown on the tresavean plan as there are many more of them. To add, there appear to have been 2 capping programmes. The first one (Cornwall Tin - or similar name) who installed the ones with the stone turrets and then the 90's ones which Carnon did (with the marker "Bollards". ) The carnon style ones were done in the 90's to about 2006 and the earlier ones (with vent pipes) were done sometime between that and operation minecap (with the metal cones). Sadly, the details of those operations are with the people who were there. - this is my understanding, it may be slightly wrong.
