RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Why I'm a buyer.That's what I thought. Basically, the question now is what happened with cyanide, did it go in to rivers and underground. Definatelly it is their fk up. Somebody will need to get fired for this.

If that is in fact the case, there will likely be minimal infrastructure damage to thecontainment berm, but a heck of a mess to clean up, and a lot of questions for the operator to answer.
You cant put 10 gallons of water in a 5 gallon bucket, without something overflowing
Question is, how saturated with cyanide is the material at the top of the leach pad compared to the material closest to the sumps, as it looks like surface material slid down the hill.
