You know I think Greenpeace and perhaps other environmental groups are going to have a lot of fun with this project. Wait until they read that the results from metallurgical test work and mineralogical examination demonstrated that 95% to 98% of the gold is contained in the finer-grained arsenopyrite within the Donlin Creek ores. And the general mineralogy of the gold mineralization and related gangue minerals include pyrite, arsenopyrite (arsenic), stibnite (antimony), realgar (arsenic) orpiment (arsenic), native arsenic, enargite (copper and arsenic) galena (lead), cinnabar (mercury), scorodite (arsenic), gersdorffite (Nickel-arsenic). And, of course arsenopyrite is a sulfide of arsenic, iron and sulfur. Wow, just imagine, millions of tonnes of acid forming waste that contains an unbelievable toxic soup with significant amounts of arsenic and mercury! Fun, huh? Will it ever be developed?
