The BLM prepared this document to provide an objective analysis of the Proposed Action and alternatives based on the best available science and thus to inform a BLM decision about whether or not to approve a proposed amendment to the Plan of Operations for the Robinson Project (Mine Plan) as submitted to the BLM by the KGHM Robinson Nevada Mining Company (hereafter KGHM Robinson). This EIS was developed in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, implementing regulations, BLM’s NEPA Handbook (H-1790-1), and other applicable laws and policy. Because the notice of intent for this EIS was issued before September 14, 2020, the BLM developed this EIS in accordance with the 1978, as amended, Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) regulations for implementing NEPA (40 Code of Federal Regulations 1500–1508 from 1978, as amended in 1986 and 2006).

Failure to Capture and Treat Wastewater
U.S. OPERATING COPPER MINES: FAILURE TO CAPTURE & TREAT WASTEWATER BY BONNIE GESTRING, MAY 2019 In 2012, Earthworks released a report documenting the failure to capture and treat mine wastewater at U.S. operating copper mines accounting for 89% of U.S. copper production.1 The report found that 92% failed to capture and control mine wastewater, resulting in significant water quality impacts. This is an update to that effort. We reviewed government and industry documents for fifteen operating open-pit copper mines, representing 99% of U.S. copper production in 2015 – the most recent data on copper production available from the U.S. Geological Survey (see Table 1). Our research found similar results: 14 out of 15 (93%) failed to capture and control wastewater, resulting in significant water quality impacts (see TaBle 2). These unauthorized wastewater releases occurred from a number of different sources including uncontrolled seepage from tailings impoundments, waste rock piles, open pits, or other mine facilities, or failure of water treatment facilities, pipeline failures or other accidental releases.

MINERAL RESOURCES and RESERVES REPORT As at December 31, 2014
MINERAL RESOURCES AND RESERVES REPORT as at December 31, 2014 June, 2015 2 Dear Stakeholders, With undisguised pleasure and satisfaction, I have the privilege to present you with the first edition of our Mineral Resources and Reserves Report. This report consolidates and systematizes information regarding the mineral resources and mineral reserves managed by KGHM Polska Miedź S.A. (KGHM). By applying clear and consistent methodology in its preparation, we hope the report will provide you with a complete and comprehensive picture of the Company’s portfolio of mining assets and mine development projects. The development of KGHM over the past 60 years has been based on the quality and quantity of its resource base. Thanks to effective exploration and management, during the last decade KGHM has become a global, geographically diversified mining company. The mineral resources and reserves presented in this report ensure KGHM of sustainable global operations in the coming decades. As the development of our resource base is fundamental for achievement of our strategy, in the coming years we intend to carry out one of the most extensive exploration campaigns in our history, in order to enable us to identify additional mineral deposits to be described in subsequent editions of this report. Sincerely, Herbert Wirth President and CEO 3 Table of Contents Disclaimer………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… 5 Introduction…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….………. 6 Conversion of Resources and Reserves …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
