The situation
What’s happening to Red Flat Nickel Mine
The Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest in southwest Oregon holds some of the most botanically diverse country in North America, a tapestry of wild and scenic rivers, rare serpentine wildflowers, and salmon streams near the Kalmiopsis Wilderness. Homeland Nickel is pursuing Forest Service permits for strip-style nickel mining on the roughly 2,000-acre Red Flat claim near the Piston River and Hunter Creek. The administration is expediting the review, reviving a mining threat that a temporary mineral withdrawal was meant to hold off.
