2:49Now PlayingEnvironmentalists warned that a mine proposed to be built near the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge could damage the swamp’s fragile ecosystem. Supporters argue the mine will invigorate the local economy without impacting the swamp. NBC News’ Priya Sridhar reports. (Correction: An earlier version of this piece mischaracterized part of Twin Pines Minerals’ statement. The company says no mining activity will be conducted below the highest water levels of the Okefenokee. This video has been updated.)
