Are you sure it's not another tunnel? redhilltown - 7-6-2010 at 11:06 PM
hmmmmm...not sure about cool but possibly interesting! having watched the briggs mine in the panamint mountains, ca chew up the hillside for the last
15 years I know the carnage...and it's not pretty.BajaWarrior - 7-7-2010 at 04:30 AM
It's been there for years, at least for the nearly 20 years I've been coming to San Felipe (former Pacific side guy). The power lines leading to it
were installed at least 15 years ago. It partially closed for about 5 years but recently re-opened and I read on SanFelipe.com.mx it was in full
operation again. We see the dust from blasting often when driving by.DENNIS - 7-7-2010 at 07:17 AM
When the dollar regains strength and the price of gold plummets, they'll close operations again.
Question is...When.TMW - 7-8-2010 at 07:15 AM
They use high pressure water to cut and wash the ore from the mountains. The water is from the two wells at the far south end of Laguna Salada.BajaBruno - 7-8-2010 at 09:20 AM

Question is...When.
Maybe right after the mid-term election when the Fed raises interest rates. That should crash the price of oil and gold.
