MEXICO CITY (AP) — A mine in northern Mexico spilled over a half-million gallons of a cyanide solution used in heap-leach gold mining, after heavy rains caused a retaining pond to overflow. The accident occurred at the Proyecto Magistral mine in the northern state of Durango. Originally, a spokeswoman for the Toronto-based McEwen Mining Inc. said the company owned the mine, but later said that it owns a mine with a similar name in another state. news.yahoo/mexico-mine-spills-500-000-gallons-cyanide-190426853.html
