Exactly how much toxic material is utilized by the small suction miners? Zero??

And how much by those who would operate Pebble? HUGE volumes! And from what I have read the biggest risk from that proposed mining operation would be the ponds full of that toxic materials rather than the actual mining itself.

They simply are not comparable so lets not make the local issue something it isn't.
