This is what friendly mining line of ------that the state of Minnesota wants to sell to mining companies....and they are still stuck in eviron-MENTAL review...Polymet just did a supplemental environ-MENTAL review...and had over 50,000 comments...the DNR had to hire on additional personel...at Polymet's expense just to deal with the issues that the Mental=ists dreamed up...they, Polymet, are on their 9th, yes, NINTH year of trying to get to permitting stage. ;This mine has become the poster child for why a, Mining company should not want to mine, here.
Okay rant is over. As i read all information on the PROCESS and understand majority of it for Wellgreen to follow, as did many a mine prior, it seems there are timelines to adhere to for the YESAB board...thoughts on Placer mine..?
