I am not sure as to why this article piqued my interest. Maybe the fact that the author captured the essence of the people and the lands they live(d) on. It's a good read but disheartening at the same time.
I do not have the necessary knowledge or understanding of the mining industry or the regulations. So to comment on that aspect would be unfair. But, if what is presented in this article is accurate, I can foresee a slow death of the natural beauty of our great nation.
