We all got the Flyer to Test our I.Q. on Rock Creek Mine and Revett Minerals.
They say they are "producing vital metals while protecting the environment". A few year back there were studies on this company and what they are REALLY about. Please check out our Northwest Montana Environmental Blog

Revett may be providing Jobs BUT after WR Grace and
the deadly lies Lincoln County has been exposed to in the past,
can we afford short term jobs with long term possible health risks,
losing our fisheries, polluting our waters, and information that will harm us
that won't surface for years after THEY take the money and run.
They say this is good for the Economy of Northwest Montana
However, I wonder if this really is. I know we need jobs but
I am not certain that giving tax breaks to big business (Revett Minerals),
so we can break the backs of our locals and have future loss
of wildlife, fisheries and water quality it the answer.

So Money is Given to Big Business to
Create Jobs for Lincoln County. There
must be a better way to create jobs.

I have read the flyer and want to believe what
they say about fish and inert gases, however,
time ALWAYs exposes other issues
and than Big Business has moved on while
the locals are left to take the heat, the health issues
and the Loss of Lifestyle.

Mining Below Wilderness Lakes is just Wrong.
I will NEVER hike in the Cabinet mountains, I will
always know that beneath the surface is mining activities
that could harm me and that DO harm the animals.
With this it will not Seem Pristine.

If This can happen under a Wilderness than it makes
you want to stand behind Montanans for Multiple Use
and those who want the Ten Lakes Scenic are to NOT
go to Wilderness status. If this status makes it so that the area
can be opened up to mining and drilling than I, an advocate of Wilderness
say No to turning the Ten Lakes into a Wilderness area.

I use to think wilderness meant protection for an area.
It does not, it means that Big companies are open for Business
where you used to hike, horse ride, snowmobile, and fish.

Revett Mineral does not have a Clean past. Google the company, Research
their previous names and what they have REALLY been up to.

Revett Minerals Threatens Our Northwest Montana Lifestyle FOREVER.
They threaten the region's water quality and recreation economy, and the sanctity of wilderness areas nationwide.
Rock Creek Mine WILL
- Drain wilderness lakes in the Cabinet Mountains.
- Impair grizzly bear and bull trout recovery efforts.
- Cost Montana taxpayers by leaving us to treat water in perpetuity—a multi-million-dollar burden on our children and their children.

Once we LOSE the Cabinet Wilderness and Pollution
Pours into the Clark Fork River and LAKE PEND OREILLE
than we lose Millions of Revenue in folks that want to move
here because it is or WAS pristine here. We lose those who
want to come to Northwest Montana and vacation.
Glacier Park brings Millions upon Millions of dollars
to Northwest Montana each year. As we lose timber dollars and
life transitions, our biggest asset is to draw seasonal visitors
who want to be here because it is not like the cities they live in.
Northwest Montana being Clean and unpolluted is a Bigger
Economic Gain than a short Term Mine that will cause
more damage than good.
