Yukon gives update on heap leach failure at Victoria Gold’s Eagle Gold mine | APTN News 

It is good to hear Victoria Gold is working hard to contain any cyanide leakage. From their website the concentration of cyanide in the leaching water used is only .2% on average so very low. The water pumped to storm water ponds is processed in the water treatment plant separating gold and collecting the cyanide for reuse. The only water sample that returned slightly elevated was at the contained area onsite which is sent to the water treatment. Kudos to the workers onsite who took immediate action and risked their safety to mitigate this situation. I did not hear any of the parties giving them a shout out. They were either well trained or selfless. It is so easy to be critical. The community should acknowledge and be proud of their commitment.

Reconciliation? We gone so WOKE, sad theses guys have to field theses silly questions. No one wants the environment affected no matter what your ethnicity is. As a tax payer let’s look at solutions to fix this. Victoria Gold plays a big part for GDP and employment.

Mount Polly incident, imperial metals was much worse and they recovered. I think it will take a while but it will recover

I wonder if the stock price will soon return to the level prior to the slip at the mine. I think all those boring technical hearings are just relevant for journalist to write a lot of lies as they use to.

Thanks to APTN News for streaming this press conference. Cyanide contamination of the environment is unacceptable.

Completely missed the very first guys name. Good job

Guaranteed their were employees their that were well aware of the situation and they would have notified their supervisors. This is the smoke,mirrors,props and images stage.

Why are those in government that permitted, essentially 'Ok-ing' the facility at 0 fault? What is the point of all the red tape that delays mine construction in Canada if it's not preventing these very situations?

How about hiring an ex inmate to help you navigate future prison life?? How is this acceptable?

Doggy’s and pony’s

no members of the FN standing up there. there might me less umssss and ahhhssss and i don't knows and "we have to protect the money" if there was one up there with them.
