It could be worse. When the company proposed to re-open the mine - TopicsExpress



          

It could be worse. When the company proposed to re-open the mine years ago and raised 500 Millions partly from Mitsubishi and Japanese banks, I was adamant that they should at least spend some money to line the old tailings ponds that always was seeping into Wolf Creek that they should make it water proof, with a real cement damn , that times had changed and that to just build earthen dams was not up to par, and I had the backing form many government staff.. It is not over and this can still be done but at a bigger cost now. I understand it is a pipe that broke again as they used to break often and spill directly into the Similkameen long time ago. It could be the whole tailings pond going into the Creek. I am available for any background info..old history and the likes ;) globalnews.ca/news/1723697/tailings-line-spill-from-copper-mountain-mine-leads-to-water-ban/
