Addendae 3 cont'd 3/4

Born in Halifax, this part doubly saddens me! 😥 🤬

* was Canadian mining company based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada

* mid-1990s Brigus Gold formed when Pegasus Gold declared bankruptcy, transferred profitable assets to Apollo Gold

* Pegasus Gold wanted to avoid paying for the clean-up of its Montana Zortman-Landusky mine

* Pegasus Gold, Apollo Gold directors were same people

* cited as example of corporate environmental irresponsibility & unsustainable mining practices at expense of local people, environment

* Pegasus Gold's bankruptcy left Montana w. $100s millions reclamation costs in last 30 years

Good place/timing for this, here.

Private equity gets into oil/gas. Bankruptcies, abandoned wells on public land

* where private equity makes acquisitions bankruptcies follow

* new target: oil & gas companies operating on U.S. public land

Private Profits, Public Risks

P.E. Funds Oil/Gas Drilling on Public Lands; Taxpayer $380M Cleanup
