February Legislative Update with Sen. Romaine Quinn | DrydenWire Live

Published | Video Starts at 25:33

So I would rather have a mine in Wisconsin regulated by my dnr, benefiting my taxpayers, my counties, and the local residents who have really good jobs and careers. Right? We've done it. The Flambeau mine in Ladysmith, perfect example. Copper mine over there, they had some other minerals as well. I think they had a little silver and maybe gold there as well. Perfect example. It's been 18. It's probably been over 20 years now. DNR has monitoring wells. It's right near the Flambeau River. It has never leached anywhere else. (25:33–25:43)

CLAIM

Asserts that the Flambeau mine in Ladysmith successfully mined copper, silver, and possibly gold.
