I actually agree with you about being more socially responsible. That is why NFGC is important. It is located in a country that has strong environmental regulations in place, not some third world country where they will recklessly mine a property with no concern at all.

Most even bigger, different gold mining has different impacts on the environment. Gold found in large porphyry bodies requires huge open pit mines (Check out the Grasberg Mine in Indonesia on Google Maps!) and horrible extraction processes that require large uses of pollutants such as cyanide, arsenic, etc. Epizonal channels of good in quartz like is found at Queensway are not porphyry bodies and so an equal amount of gold can be mined from a much smaller zone and extraction/separation from the quartz looks completely different - with much lower environmental impacts.

We need mining as the metals that is in the products we use need to come from somewhere. To me, the focus should be on how to do it better and in a more environmentally sound way. That is just one more reason I am intrigued by the use of AI in mining exploration to find better deposits to find the needed metal supplies at a lower environmental cost per mined ounce.

AND CHEAPER AND MORE MINEABLE Epizonal channels of good in quartz like is found at Queensway are not porphyry bodies and so an equal amount of gold can be mined from a much smaller zone and extraction/separation from the quartz looks completely different - with much lower environmental impacts.
