Nothing is done about unmined ore in the ground. A mine
may have the hole fenced off if it presents a danger, or
maybe not.

From my observations jeeping around the west and poking
around endless mining areas. Actually, dirt itself is a pretty
good barrier for radiation. The need for cleanup or fences
exceeds budgets.
