A Canadian mining company has secured three environmental
permits for a mega gold mine, including one that allows the corporation
to release limited amounts of cyanide, arsenic, mercury and other toxins
near the town of Kershaw.
Obtaining the permits, which were
approved this month by state regulators, represents a milestone for
Romarco Minerals in its quest to open what it says will be the largest
gold mine east of the Mississippi River. Romarco’s mining plans have
been slowed by environmental concerns, as well as the economy.
