Photo of Hall Mountain area drilling |
September 2, 2014 |
To The Editor:
Attached is a photo of the core drilling rig on
Harvey Mountain, drilling test holes for the MMG
mine.
One of the drillers said this was the fourth
hole, and it would be about 1,000 feet deep.
Other holes were up to 1,900 feet deep.
This was taken on August 29, at about the 3 mile
marker on the Harvey Mountain road.

(Editor's Note: Thanks to Mr. Jordan for
providing this photograph. This past June, the
issue of the test drilling on area Forest
Service land near Hall Mountain became somewhat
controversial, due to both the drilling itself
and the way the project was publicized--or not
publicized--in our area. To read the original
articles from NewsBF on the Hall Mountain
drilling issues, you can follow these links):
