New article on Gold Terra. Looks like someone messed up!
Looks like their waste management contractor, Boart Longyear, screwed up pretty badly but it's nice to hear Gold Terra has taken responsibility and doesn't see any environmental damage coming from this. Looks like they'll be looking for a new contractor to take this on. Still might be a bit of a black stain on us.

Clearly a screw up - Not acceptable and if I read GP and Joe corectly when i met them here - someone is getting the boot and a big one at that - no reasonable subcontractor would walk away from that, ultimatly its on YGT but someone is going to pay and its going to be dearly. The actual clean up is small compared to the other damages.

Everyone agrees this is unacceptible. How did it happen that no one saw it until inspection? Who was the driller, the 5th man, the geologist. Many layers and they all failed. This stuff can happen, but it gets fixed right now!

I am thinking they have 3-4 ft of ice could be more .... they could take the area and literally scrub with biodegradable soap and water and a small army of vac trucks and clean that area up and still have 2 Ft of ice.... Gerald will then chip some of that ice and add to his gin tonic .... job is done lol and it will be.
