Reclamation was completed and the mine finally closed. All federal, state and local reclamation standards have been met, and the reclamation bond was released this week by Imperial county. Picacho was Glamis's first gold mine, operating for over 20 years and bringing millions of dollars of capital investment to the state of California. All gold reserves were exhausted.
