So long to mining.
Considering that the point is to stop mining entirely, it’s a reasonable ruling.
So if you extract a valuable mineral from the ground and the remainder of the ground is therefore defined as “waste” you cannot put it back?
I’m surprised no FReeper has posted the news that a judge in NY told Bragg that he MUST TURN OVER EVERYTHING THAT jIM JORDAN WANTS.

Odd. Way back when I learned civics, it was the legislature that made laws.
America’s enemies, which include American Democrats, liberals, Leftists, enviro-crazies and a variety of people who aren’t from an enemy country, use every weapon at their disposal to harm the American economy. Their intention is to use any means necessary to disrupt American hegemony. From the part of other countries this isn’t for some noble, humanist reason. This is so they can establish their own hegemon, which they would run like a Mafia state. From the part of ordinary people, it’s for a variety of reasons but I think in the end if they got what they wanted they wouldn’t like what they had worked so hard to create. “Wait! You mean all this destruction of America hasn’t resulted in free streaming, free sex and free BMW’s!!??”
“A judge ruled in favor of environmentalists to halt a mine in Nevada”
TAKE THAT, PUTIN!!!!
It’s hard to believe, but the Neocons SERIOUSLY want to start World War 3 when we’re not even allowed to mine our own resources.
It would sure be nice if the Neocons would LIFT A FINGER to help us here in America, before running around the world trying to ‘regime-change’ every country that doesn’t allow Drag Queen Parades.
It actually makes some sense. The law apparently says BLM land can only be used for mining if you actually mine the land. Unless I am reading this wrong, the company apparently wanted to use BLM land to dump waste rock from a different mine operation.
BLM land should not be used as dumps for mining companies unless those companies are actively mining on another part of the same claim.
This is another reason why no one wants to build things in the USA.
So we can just import it from China, or Russia, or Mexico with our global reserve currency.....
....or until other nations stop taking our currency.
Where are all the minerals for the green energy “transition” (there’s that word again) coming from? China? Russia? The Congo?
If this is about the Thacker Pass lithium mine, here is a link to the wiki info:

And a link to the only active lithium mine currently at Silver Peak, also in NevaDUH:

I suspect with harm minerals it is much the same as with oil — most are “dry holes”. Uneconomical, or “oops”.
So, many many mines will start digging and find little worth pursuing. So, to put things back the way they were they have to bury what was dug up. If the rulings and treehuggers are trying to prevent this — there need to be some lynchings.
OTOHand, it is corrupt to file for a mine “over thar” so as to have a dumping site for stuff dug up elsewhere. If that is going on, my solution applies.
It's good to see Black Lives Matter finally being held accountable to at least one law after being allowed to skirt one after another.
Some day soon it will be legal to hunt environmentalists with dogs.
I look forward to that day.
