BLM approved M&M Gold's proposal to conduct placer techniques over a 5-year period to recover gold from alluvial gravels adjacent to the Jefferson River.  The Project Area would be 1.75 acres, which will include site access, preliminary reclamation of existing disturbances, new exploration and mining activities, and final reclamation. The proponent's complete plan of operations as well as the final environmental assessment (and Appendix E), finding of no significant impact, and decision record are posted to the documents section.
