Reclamation and closure activities are ongoing at San Martin as 2007 represented the last full year of commercial production. The closure phase includes backfilling, waste encapsulation, recontouring, revegetation and final leach and rinse on the leach pads. As the site becomes rehabilitated, Goldcorp will cede the land to the San Martin Foundation for commercial agricultural projects.
