ADN's Pebble Blog Looks at How the Stimulus Could Impact Mining Jobs

Sure enough, last month, some of President Obama's economic advisors published an analysis of the impact of his proposed $600 billion stimulus plan, by employment sector.
On page nine of the analysis they said the stimulus would create 26,000 mining jobs. The report doesn't provide much detail about those projected jobs, though.

With exploration projects facing big cutbacks in the wake of the economic downturn, can the Pebble Mine project survive? We shall see.
