Unjust Amendment Tests Gilsonite Bill Amidistry debates
Prospectors and gilsonite owners faced opposition as the amended bill drew Senate support but stalled in the House. Conferees from both chambers propose further changes to the Indian bill likely to pass, with two session days remaining. The measure could open land to entry for gilsonite and related minerals in the Uncompahgre and Uintah regions, affecting existing locations and future mining. Reports from grading operations note improved conditions after a weather lull, though labor retention remains a challenge for Denver sub-contractors.
