fifty years of surface mining tragically polluted the waters, air, and ecosystems of the #NorthwesternGreatBasin.
At PeeheeMu'huh (#ThackerPass) the tactics are the same: short-sighted extractive industry authorized by federal and state agencies, who collectively disregard the interests and wellbeing of #IndigenousPeoples. The Cordero Mine was built on lands overseen by the Bureau of Land Management (#BLM); the Thacker Pass lithium mine is similarly situated on BLM lands.
