There is also a proposal for a La Bajada National Monument (which I'm not enthused about). So...I see a typical NM practice here: get the infrastructure in place before anyone can anything about it. Ruin any chance for the land to be saved, and La Bajada SHOULD be saved, and you got yourself a mine.
