Quesnel Lake eventually feeds into the Fraser River via Quesnel - TopicsExpress



          

Quesnel Lake eventually feeds into the Fraser River via Quesnel River; this highly toxic slurry, rife with arsenic, mercury, and sulfuric acid content, amongst other mining waste products, should well affect critical downstream spawning beds where returning salmon are currently headed. Quesnel Lake is the source of about A QUARTER of the Sockeye production in the entire province. So much for these touted 4-year period record sockeye runs; this could be the end of the road for these stocks for the foreseeable future. vancouversun/health/Mine%2Bwaste%2Bleak%2Bforces%2Bwater%2BQuesnel%2BCariboo%2BRiver%2Bsystems/10088871/story.html
