An investigation report on the June 2024 landslide at the heap leach facility at Victoria Gold Corp.’s Eagle Gold Mine has found that the mining company didn’t properly consider the cold climate conditions during its operations.
Meanwhile, the Yukon Department of Environment is declining to disclose certain records involving internal government communications related to the heap leach facility failure at the mine following an investigation by the Yukon information and privacy commissioner’s (IPC) office.
