Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd (NAK)

[Zilidium]

If Alaska isn't getting any love from the home team (Rep. Murkowski and Stevens) "C.J" and or "R.D" can not force the issue on State land. Sure they can issue approval with permits from ACE & EPA but hey can't force the State to allow digging. Because Pebble is on State land, not Federal land, and because the State owns the minerals until they are mined, NAK does not, it seems to me that the bigger issue is not Joe or Don but Lisa & Dan. Yes, ultimately the courts will get involved and yes the courts could side with NAK, but how long will that take?

...and for what its worth, their replacements are not gonna sweeten the prospects one bit.

The hurdles are high, the journey long, but the rewards can be sweet.
