Join the Clean Kilgore Coalition for a free lunch and tour of the Kilgore Gold Exploration Site, where a toxic open-pit, heap-leach, cyanide gold mine threatens the Centennial Mountains and the Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer.
The Centennial Mountains and surrounding foothills have long played host to family farms and ranches, lush meadows, clear streams, and iconic wildlife species. Now, a financially unstable foreign mining company plans to methodically dismantle the forested hillsides in search of gold, threatening to mar the landscape forever and pollute this quiet swath of public land with toxic mining waste.
Come join the Clean Kilgore Coalition to explore what makes Kilgore special, and why it’s no place for an open-pit, heap-leach cyanide gold mine.
