DESCRIPTION
This front page feature explored the operations of North America’s largest platinum and palladium mine run by Stillwater Mining Company in the wake of three fatalities. It ran in the June 29, 2001 edition of The Big Timber Pioneer. — “It’s not just here. It’s the industry as a whole,” asserted Robert Taylor (Stillwater Mining Company’s vice president of operations for the East Boulder mine), a mining veteran with over 25 years of experience ranging from rock work to paper pushing. “There’s been a rash of fatalities this year... We are terribly concerned. It’s tragic.” —
