    There will be some huge victory parties if Trump blocks as it has been one hell of a fight. This mine is in the middle of one of the most fragile ecosystems in the world, Being a fly fisherman I have followed this fight for ten plus years and I have given quite a bit of money to stop this mine and I know my Trout Unlimited dollars are also fighting this. Stop pebble mine

    Tucker had Johnny Morris on his show a week or so ago talking about this very issue. I personally never heard of it, but as it was defined on what damage it would do to that area, it will be a good thing if Trump tanks it.

    Thank God - It's time to stop allowing big corporate interests from raping our natural resources!

    Can you just imagine if they did flood the market with hundreds of billions of dollars of gold, that will fix them hoarders.

    This mine doesn’t need to happen. But it won’t surprise me to see this as just a little delay. Ya gotta wonder what the true rationale is for this news. It will be good for a lot of reasons if this mine is prevented. I think this is a scam but I hope it isn’t.
    GETFISHED !!!

    im cautiously optimistic. The article implies it could be the death of the mine...though we have heard that before in regards to this project. One thing this administration has going for it is some of the people in the presidents ear are staunch supporters of hunting and fishing rights, preservation and expansion. The president may not know a bobber from a baitcaster but those closest to him do.

    It will certainly kill it as both presidential nominees would be against it and Pebble does not have the funds to fight it for another four years. Trump winning was there lifeline 3 years ago.

    I hope it isn't either. Our outdoors are worth protecting.
