We’re committed to returning the land to other productive uses when our mines close, safeguarding the biodiversity of habitats, and supporting their recovery. Reclamation of mined lands is an integral part of each project from the initial design process through the entire project lifecycle The Troy mine Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) in Montana has completed most stages of closure and reclamation is now focusing on habitat improvements.
