I am interested in this site because of the comments on the Vipont mine. I grew up on the Skoro mine, which is next door.

Welcome to the site!
Very cool, quite a bit of mining happened up there! Any plans to eventually re-open?-Stuart Burgess

Not any time soon. Who knows what the future holds. There have been people showing interest forever but I am sure you know how that goes. One outfit wanted to come in and open pit the top of the mountain which was a horrible idea. I guess its understandable profit wise but would be a shame.Comment

I do know how that goes. It is a very rich area. I've got some claims not too far outside of Grouse Creek that we may be drilling later this year. Eventually I wouldn't be surprised if someone did go in and open pit that whole area, it would take millions to get something like that started though.-Stuart Burgess

If they do open pit it then I hope they wait till I am dead. It would break my heart to see it all gone.Comment
