American Pacific drills hit high-grade copper-zinc at Palmer as it preps for resource update
Highlight hole cut 18 metres at 1.5% copper and 5.4% zinc (4.4% copper equivalent) from 203.6 metres depth.
Phil North was no fan of the proposed Pebble Mine, so when he was asked in 2010 to offer feedback on a draft petition urging the Environmental Protection Agency to kill the project, he pitched in with suggested language and edits.
Given that Mr. North was then a staff scientist with the EPA working on the Pebble Mine, however, his collaboration with outside advocates, which he discussed in a deposition released Thursday, has only confirmed the worst suspicions of House Republicans.
