About the Presentation:

This presentation examines the key clause changes between Version 1 and Version 2 of SSR6, with a focus on the implications for the mineral sands, uranium, and rare earth elements (REE) industries. The 2025 release of IAEA SSR-6 (Regulations for the Safe Transport of Radioactive Material) Revision 2 introduces changes to terminology, classification criteria, and operational requirements with direct implications for mineral sands, uranium, and rare earth element (REE) operations. This presentation provides a clause-by-clause comparison of Revision 1 and Revision 2, identifying the updates most relevant to Management & Radiation Safety Officers in the mining and processing sectors. Key areas covered include the expanded NORM definition, revised alpha emitter classifications, mixed load requirements, and transitional compliance deadlines. The work was carried out in collaboration with Dean Crouch and Alexia Denys from RadSol.
