CHESAW, Wash. (AP) — The owners of a gold mine near the Canadian border in north-central Washington want to explore for more gold on 10,000 acres surrounding the mine.

The Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest and state Department of Natural Resources are working together to issue an environmental impact statement on the proposal by Echo Bay Exploration.

Echo Bay is a subsidiary of Toronto-based Kinross Gold Co., which owns the Buckhorn Mine near Chesaw, about 120 miles northwest of Spokane.
