Proposed underwater Mining Operations for Baja California pacific coast


Has anyone heard about this project off San Juanico?
"The plan is to literally suck up the sea floor using standard Trailer Suction Hopper Dredging (TSHD). The large ship used is manufactured by Bosaklis and operated by DragaMex of Mexico. DragaMex does have 220 dredging project completed in Mexico for marinas, ports and rivers but not necessarily for mining."

Local fishermen reported to us they experienced a sterile sea after the company did some offshore testing. Lots of dead fish; lots of dead turtles.
