## Resource

Mining’s brewing on the BC-Alaska border, with Eskay Creek poised to launch soon—permits secured, First Nation deal done. Galore Creek and Schaft Creek loom next, plus smaller, riskier plays. But environmental stakes are high: acid leaks from past mines like Tulsequah Chief haunt the Taku River, and Eskay’s Unuk watershed is just steps from Ketchikan. Indigenous communities on both sides are watching closely as transboundary pollution remains a tangled, unresolved crisis. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
