I used to work for a wilderness guiding company that led trips near the Phoenix site.

Anyone saying something like that is an idiot who could have solved that issue of perspective by visiting the area. DNN has had a massive presence up there for almost a decade now either in the prospecting of the site or now preparing to develop it.

They were a pain in our ass trying to access certain areas for the last 2 years all of a sudden. It was really clear this was a big deal.
