Perpetua and Iron Woman begin new round of cleanup at Stibnite Mining District

Perpetua Resources and Iron Woman Construction and Environmental Services successfully mobilized teams and equipment to site this week for the next round of voluntary legacy waste cleanup and water quality improvements in the historical Stibnite Mining District. This summer, Iron Woman has been engaged to help Perpetua Resources move more than 300,000 tons of legacy mine waste away from sensitive waterways on site and relocate it to areas where it can be more safely stored. Early mobilization included transporting dump trucks, loaders, office trailers, water tanks and reclamation supplies into Stibnite via Warm Lake Road and Johnson Creek Road. In accordance with Perpetua’s transportation best practices, oversized loads and sensitive loads were escorted to site with pilot cars. Equipment will stay at Stibnite until early fall, when this phase of work is expected to be complete.
