Forest Service has begun cleanup of abandoned mine waste on Gila National Forest
Mineral Creek area mine tailings to be stabilized to improve local water quality
The USDA Forest Service began an environmental cleanup effort at the Mineral Creek Tailings Pile on October 16, 2023. The site is located within the Mogollon Mining District, near the community of Alma, NM on the Glenwood Ranger District of the Gila National Forest.
Approximately 175,000 cubic yards of mine tailings were transported to the area from the Little Fannie Mine via a flume sometime between 1895 and 1934. This material contains elevated levels of lead which may be eroding into Mineral Creek.
