“We were all shaken up by Brumadinho.” How a deadly mining disaster in Brazil has upended the industry around the world.
EMBARRASS, Minn.—An earthen dam is set to rise behind the trees of Dan Ehman’s 120 woodland acres in northeastern Minnesota’s Iron Range, a region with close ties to mining for more than a century.
