Seven Years after Mount Polley Disaster, Mine Waste Still Flows into Quesnel Lake | The Tyee: The gold and copper mine deposited nearly 25 million cubic metres of
mine waste into the Fraser watershed that day — roughly equal to the

It left a toxic slurry that remains on the lakebed today. Data showed
the lake rose several inches overnight, Watt says.

Seven years later, mine
waste continues to flow from Mount Polley into Quesnel Lake under a
permit issued by the B.C. government.
