SMRS Knows the Importance of Going Green
Star Mountain Resources, Inc. (OTC: SMRS), a micro-cap mining company, focuses its efforts on acquiring potentially high output mineral properties. The company specifically looks for low-cost acquisitions that are rich in base and precious metals. So far, these investments include the Balmat zinc mine in New York and the Chopar Project in Utah. Star Mountain Resources prides itself on making a “positive difference in the lives of those we serve: our shareholders, our employees, our customers, and our communities.” The company believes in strengthening community ties while upholding its core values, especially its environmental responsibility.
Mining processes have the potential of deeply impacting the surrounding environment. Realizing this, Star Mountain Resources investigates current and potential challenges that might negatively affect the environment. Some of these risks include water pollution, erosion, biodiversity, and soil contamination. Fortunately, Federal and State governments enforce strict laws to combat these risks, such as the Clean Air Act, Federal Water Pollution Control Act, and the Endangered Species Act.
Star Mountain Resources itself takes strong initiatives toward maintaining a healthy ecosystem at each project location. The company meets and exceeds Federal and State laws by treating its water against mercury, arsenic, and sulfuric acid contamination while setting up sewage systems that reduce its environmental footprint. Star Mountain Resources also tracks its monthly energy usage and pays special attention to costs and consumption with the goal of minimizing usage each year. The company even signed a long-term power agreement that assures the reduction of power costs by 40%. Recycling programs and dust-suppression techniques also help each site to be eco-friendly.
Overall, Star Mountain Resources makes it a priority to maintain the environment while building sturdy community ties. The company knows the importance of community and its ecosystem, making its green efforts that much more significant. Ensuring its mines have minimal environmental impact equates to a healthier production of mineral properties in favorable areas.
