Army Corps of EngineersUnlike the Rosemont open pit mine being developed near Tucson, the Gunnison project does not require approval from the Army Corps of Engineers.
This statement is based on an email exchange I had today with Steve Twyerould.
Steve also mentioned that the fact that Taseko received its aquifer protection permit this week for its Florence in-situ project from ADEQ is a good sign. Steve said that EPA approval should follow.
These Taseko approvals bode well for Gunnison.
