Question

The Golden Sunlight Mine (GSM) near Whitehall, Montana, is relatively close to dozens of legacy mining operations. In the fall of 2012, GSM won an award from the U.S. Bureau of Land Management for helping to reuse materials from legacy silver and gold mines. The GSM partnered with other groups to remove and process the tailings from the legacy mines, deposit the reprocessed tailings into a more modern, lined, tailings pond, and reclaim the old site (all with proper permitting). The partners and related contractors benefit financially, the historic sites are cleaned up with a reduced amount of federal/state (taxpayer) expense, and new jobs are provided. In 2011-2012, GSM had at least 10 different contracts to bring in historic mine materials for processing, including from sites on public lands. These same legacy tailings have been around for a long time and remained untouched for years. What factors might have changed to allow this type of "ore processing" partnership to exist today?
