As a Federal Court ruling nears on January 5th, opponents warn the Thacker Pass Lithium Mine in Nevada is already damaging sacred sites. Lithium Nevada Corporation has begun digging test pits and installing infrastructure where Native Americans conduct ceremonies. Tribes argue this violates permit agreements, contending new authorizations terminated older ones, with attorney Will Falk suggesting the company is "lying to get a headstart" with BLM's approval.

Thacker Pass, or Peehee Mu'huh, is a sacred site for regional tribes, used for ceremonies, gathering, and as a massacre site. Tribal leaders emphasize their responsibility to protect these places, asserting the mine violates religious freedoms and consultation rights. The January 5th hearing is the final oral argument in lawsuits. Support protection efforts: https://givebutter.com/protectthackerpass. Learn more: https://ProtectThackerPass.org.
