flag BC court orders Mount Polley mine to halt dam expansion until July 1 due to Indigenous legal challenge.

flag A British Columbia Supreme Court judge has ordered Mount Polley mine to pause depositing tailings into an expanded dam until July 1, amid a legal challenge by the Xatsull First Nation. flag The First Nation filed for an emergency injunction to halt the four-meter dam expansion, arguing it was approved without proper environmental assessment and consultation. flag The mine had been allowed to raise the dam to manage spring runoff, but the Xatsull First Nation sees this as a threat to environmental safety and reconciliation efforts. flag A judicial review is scheduled for June.
