The environmental review of the proposed Prosperity Mine continues with a 30-day window for public comments on additional information Taseko Mines Ltd. provided to the federal government.
Information and comments on the additional Taseko responses will be reviewed and the Environmental Review Panel will decide if it has enough information to go to a public hearing, which will be announced 30 days before the start of the hearing.
