Pennies on the Dollar

DateFriday, August 22, 2014 at 12:00AM

Clean up from the devastating ‪Mt. Polley‬ mine spill in B.C. could cost up to $500 million dollars. How much of a bond did Imperial Metals provide to assure regulators they could clean up a spill?

$14.5 million, or less than 3% of the max total cost.

So how much of a bond will regulators ask of Northern Dynasty if they allow the ‪Pebble‬ Mine to proceed?
