Conflict over Resource Development
The debate over the Pebble Mine is similar to many other
debates which have occurred in Alaska's history between
advocates of developing Alaska's resources and
advocates of protecting Alaska's environment. These
debates raise fundamental questions about what kind of
future we want for Alaska, and whether or not we can
develop our natural resources and also protect our
environment. Alaska's constitution says that Alaska's
resources are to be managed for the "maximum benefit"
of Alaskans. But not all Alaskans agree about what
"maximum benefits" means.

About Us Pebble Mine
Pebble Mine- Bristol Bay, Alaska
The Pebble Open Pit Gold & Copper Mine puts at risk the
most spectacular and abundant ecosystem in North
America.
The real threat to Alaska's fishing and hunting ecological systems is
not ANWR, but rather the proposed development of an open pit
mining district at the headwaters of the two most famous salmon
producing river drainages in Alaska --the Mulchatna/ Nushagak
River drainage and the Newhalen / Kvichak River drainage, both of
which feed into the renowned Bristol Bay. The proposed Pebble
Mine, which would be the first of many, would include the largest
dam in the world, larger than Three Gorges Dam in China, and made
of earth not concrete, to hold back the toxic waste created in the
mining process.
