Mount Polleys Sister Mine: We Must Do This One Right. Red Chris mine is expected to yield a vast fortune. But how to insure against another catastrophe? Wade Davis The highest levels of corporate integrity and responsibility should be the standard for any new mine in Canada, and especially for one with as much potential as Imperial Metals Red Chris project, situated at the heart of the Sacred Headwaters in remote northwestern British Columbia. Imperial Metals has acknowledged that all exploration, regulation and construction costs will be reclaimed within two years of the mines anticipated three decades of active production. If true this immense and certain profitability ought to allow both the company and the government to push the limits of excellence on every front, assuring the public at every step in the process that costs and/or expediency will never deflect them from their goal of building an exemplary mine. It is in the interests of all of the mining industry and both federal and provincial governments that such high standards be set for Red Chris. Civic and corporate responsibility aside, self-interest alone would suggest that Imperial ought to build a great mine. thetyee.ca/Opinion/2014/09/22/Mount-Polley-Sister-Mine/?utm_source=mondayheadlines&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=220914
