**** 2025 ****
Mine was in operation through April 9 2025. Following the shutdown, the well
pump was shut off for e months [using water from Iron Water District] until
August.
Following this time, the well is turned on and the master tank is filled for
mill and office maintenance, then turned back off.
This is roughly 10,000 per month.

**** 2022 ****
This is purchased water from the Water Conservancy District and is not
associated with the water rights and points of diversion at the mine. Total
comes from billings coming from the master meter from the District.
Internal changes to the process in June 2022 resulted in a reduction of
water use from this source of almost 2/3.
**** 2025 **** Mine was closed on April 9th, 2026,
Usage after that point was worked downward until placed into suspension mode
in late August.
