Good afternoon,

I do not support this proposed mine.  I beleive strongly that a comprehensive accumulative effects study of Atlantic Golds 4 proposed sites and any other exploration sites along the Eastern Shore of Nova Scotia should be conducted prior to any other project approval.  

Wilderness and ecosystems play an enormous role as Natural Capital  I propose also looking at a new approach or something similar.  Gross Ecosystem Product (GEP) to value nature in these types of massive projects.  This type of analysis must be included in evaluation proceses moving forward.
