Our range is ready for our berms to mined out. We have about 50 years of bullets in some of the berms.

I am very suprised we don't have hot spots from that alone but, they have been rebuilt many times so I guess that the spots are deep in the middle of the berm.

I have know of people some people saying that you can get companies to come in and rebuild the berms and mine out the lead and actually give you a percentage of metal profits.

Does anyone know of a company that does this? It doesn’t matter where in the country.

I figure they will have a reference for a company in our area.

Thanks!

I've been told that you never want to call it mining, because of the taxes incurred with that activity.

You are reclaiming the lead. No need to pay taxes on it again.
