RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Fools-Reduced project footprint: underground mining, underground crushing and underground transportation reduces the surface footprint and effects of vibration, noise, and emissions
-No chemicals: processing will be restricted to hydrometallurgical processes (flotation) to produce concentrates (not end metals); No mercury or cyanide will be used
-Limited external water use: designed to utilize recycled mine and process water. Water will be treated in several planned water treatment plants in the Padilla area and Emboque area
...btw ..the processing plant lies 5-6 km next to the deposit ... mining will be underground ... all this to protect the nature...
