UNITY Mining’s proposal to use cyanide at its Dargues gold mine at Majors Creek has caused a great deal of concern in the community.
Cyanide is highly toxic but, unfortunately for affected communities, it is the most economical method to extract gold from ore.
Because of the method’s cost-effectiveness, and the company’s financial troubles, Unity has decided to renege on its undertakings to not apply for approval to use cyanide on site.
