A clip from the the United States Bureau of Mines film, Radiation Protection in Uranium Mines, produced during the 1960s. Uranium mining occurred mostly in the southwestern United States and drew many Native Americans and others into work in the mines and mills.

Many of the mine workers suffered from lung cancer and mesothelioma. The resulting high rates of illness among miners led in 1990 to passage of the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act.
