Thank you, Ms. Killingsworth.
I'm curious about one thing you said fairly early on in your remarks. When you were discussing tailings ponds, you suggested--if I interpreted you correctly--that these could later be reclaimed.
My understanding is that the problem with tailings ponds is the suspended clay. After a certain point, it simply doesn't settle down any more. As somebody from the CANMET technology centre in Devon noted, the problem is that it doesn't settle further, that after about three years...although the toxicity does reduce to some degree.
Has the industry managed to find a way of reclaiming the tailings ponds, putting the water back into rivers and having people drink it?
