Canada-based Northern Dynasty Minerals issued a statement on Friday, Feb. 5, acknowledging that it is cooperating with a federal grand jury investigation after its subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership and former CEO Tom Collier received subpoenas from the U.S. Attorney’s office in Alaska. The subpoenas request documents as part of an investigation “apparently involving previously disclosed recordings of private conversations regarding the Pebble Project,” the company said in its release.
The documents sought are likely related to the content of the Pebble Tapes and the resulting fallout of the recorded video calls in which Collier made statements that reportedly contradicted his own Congressional testimony. In the videos, released in September, Collier was speaking to environmentalists posing as potential Pebble Mine investors.
