Victoria Gold mining company says operations may not resume in Yukon following cyanide solution disaster
The Victoria Gold mining company says it’s uncertain if it will ever resume production or if it has the financial resources to repair damage and fix the environmental impact of last month’s ore-slide disaster at its Eagle Gold mine in Yukon .
It says it’s co-operating with technical experts hired by the Yukon Government and the First Nation of Nacho Nyak Dun as they investigate the cause of the June 24 disaster at the mine about 500 kilometres north of Whitehorse. Victoria Gold says in a statement Friday that a single water sample taken from Haggart Creek downstream of the mine on July 2 had shown an elevated cyanide level.
