The PolyMet Company wants to build a copper and nickel mine in Northern Minnesota near the city of Virginia. It is a very controversial issue, but I believe building this mine can solve many of the problems in Minnesota. Finding jobs in Northern Minnesota is difficult, because of the lack of job opportunities. If PolyMet builds this mine it would create many jobs and opportunities for people living in Northern Minnesota. There are many concerns about the construction of the mine and the effects on the environment in that area, and the species that live in the area. I do not think these should be concerns, because the PolyMet Company promised to put the land back to normal within 20 years. Also, the species that live there can easily relocate

Throughout this mining process a byproduct is created called chat. The chat is leftover rock and waste from mining that did not contained the desired materials. The chat was left on the site because the Bureau of Indian Affairs thought it could be of value to the Quapaw tribe (1). This chat contained high levels of toxic lead and other harmful chemicals. It is estimated that there are 75 Million tons (150 billion pounds) of chat piles remaining exposed to the environment as well as numerous flotation ponds that haven’t been taken into account (4).

When it comes to the PolyMet mine in MN, there are pros and cons for each side so either way the outcome won’t be perfect. My opinion is unsure and I don't favor a side. To support this issue Dr. Fairhurst, a professor at the U of M, stated, “Mining is very important. The main material in technology is copper. If PolyMet achieves their goal of 72 million pounds of copper in 20 years, our technology could keep advancing and make these types of projects improve. “There could be self driven mining trucks which improves safety for miners.” On the other side, the Boundary Waters are at risk of being polluted. This is very risky because if something goes wrong with the mine, the water may flow up to the site and pollute it. Paul Danicic, Executive
First, I would like to say both of these articles make good points. But, due to the government support and research we are providing towards diamond mining, I think it should continue. Although, I will give my reasons as to why I think the argument against this industry shall stop first. Yes, i do agree that MR.McLeavitt is making valid points about the dangers and enviromental problems diamond mining is causing. But he states them in a way that gives no credit to the wildlife preservers, national parks, and government that are working hard and together to prevent the problems he complains about. Because they are protecting species near mines, studying ways to protect aqualands, AND working in closely monitored

For example, there was a survey done about this project, there were 220 people who were asked about new mine project and nobody was in favour of it.
