QUESTION:
What type of mineral is in the Black River and how is it sustained?

ANSWER: May 13, 2010 by Wellesley Gayle

Hi Romeike,

I am going to refer you to the National Environment and Planning Agency of Jamaica (NEPA). They would appear to be most knowledgeable on this subject.

Their address and contact details are:

10 & 11 Caledonia Avenue, Kingston 5

Hotline: 876-1-888-991-5005
Email: pubed@nepa.gov.jm
