Michigan Says YES to Sulfide Mining
Michigan regulators gave final approval Thursday to a nickel and copper mine for the Upper Peninsula, despite opponents' fears it would pollute streams that feed Lake Superior and provide habitat for a rare type of trout. The mine is a sulfide mine or acid mine and this will likely be the first of many in the Upper Peninsula.
