Project Sapphire, an American operation to remove more than a half-ton of weapons-grade uranium removed from Kazakhstan in 1994. From Oct. 14 to Nov. 11, 1994, a team of 31 Americans ventured into a remote area of Kazakhstan to secure 1,320 pounds of weapons-grade uranium and airlift it safely out of the country to the United States. 
On November 20-21, two U.S. Air Force C-5 Galaxy airlifters carried 448 containers of  the dangerous material and the team to Dover Air Force Base, Delaware, with several aerial refuelings. The uranium was then trucked to the Y-12 plant at Oak Ridge, Tennessee to be blended down.]]></media:description><media:credit role="author" scheme="urn:ebu">Andy Weber</media:credit></media:content></item><item><title><![CDATA[U.S. allows mining near Minnesota wilderness area, with waters flowing into Canada]]></title><link>https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-us-allows-mining-near-minnesota-area-with-waters-flowing-into-canada/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-us-allows-mining-near-minnesota-area-with-waters-flowing-into-canada/</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nathan VanderKlippe]]></dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The vote, passed by Congress on Thursday, overturns a pair of decisions made by the Joe Biden administration ]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 16 Apr 2026 17:45:56 +0000</pubDate><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://www.theglobeandmail.com/resizer/v2/ZUNDFFSISBBGRJAB3MQKCGA67Y.jpg?auth=8dfbb7684eee8e2c0ff42e34b471923a196ac98e4d50b19587608da8e53fe739&smart=true&width=4800&height=3200" alt="An aerial view from Birch River, a few kilometres downstream from the Twin Metals proposed copper-nickel mine, and about 20 km upstream from the Boundary Waters Canoe Area." height="3200" width="4800"/>]]></content:encoded><media:content url="https://www.theglobeandmail.com/resizer/v2/ZUNDFFSISBBGRJAB3MQKCGA67Y.jpg?auth=8dfbb7684eee8e2c0ff42e34b471923a196ac98e4d50b19587608da8e53fe739&amp;smart=true&amp;width=4800&amp;height=3200" type="image/jpeg" height="3200" width="4800"><media:description type="plain"><![CDATA[An aerial view from Birch River, a few kilometres downstream from the Twin Metals proposed copper-nickel mine, and about 20 km upstream from the Boundary Waters Canoe Area.]]></media:description><media:credit role="author" scheme="urn:ebu">Melissa Tait</media:credit></media:content></item><item><title><![CDATA[In Minnesota’s wilderness, a town divided over the future of mining ]]></title><link>https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-northeastern-minnesota-boundary-waters-mining-moratorium/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-northeastern-minnesota-boundary-waters-mining-moratorium/</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nathan VanderKlippe, Melissa Tait]]></dc:creator><description><![CDATA[Close to the Canadian border, some Minnesota residents are sounding the environmental alarm over an end to the moratorium ]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 13 Apr 2026 14:48:45 +0000</pubDate><content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!--Header code for image-layout-component.

The site on the Birch River is a few kilometres downstream from a proposed copper-nickel mine, and about 15 km from an operating taconite mine.Ely, Minnesota is 26 km south of the Canadian border and sits at the centre of a fight over a proposed copper-nickel mine that would be built in the watershed of the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness — a million-acre protected area that borders Ontario's Quetico Provincial Park. The U.S. Senate could vote before the end of April to rescind a 20-year federal ban on mining in the watershed. The mine is proposed by Twin Metals, a Chilean-owned company, on a site that drains into the Rainy River, which flows into Canada's Lake of the Woods and eventually Hudson Bay.April 9, 2026Melissa Tait/The Globe and Mail]]></media:description><media:credit role="author" scheme="urn:ebu">Melissa Tait</media:credit></media:content></item><item><title><![CDATA[In feud with the Pope, Trump crosses red lines for some faithful supporters]]></title><link>https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-in-feud-with-the-pope-trump-crosses-red-lines-for-some-faithful/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://www.theglobeandmail.com/world/article-in-feud-with-the-pope-trump-crosses-red-lines-for-some-faithful/</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nathan VanderKlippe]]></dc:creator><description><![CDATA[The schism between the President and the Pontiff has intensified after Leo’s opposition to the war in Iran]]></description><pubDate>Tue, 14 Apr 2026 02:55:47 +0000</pubDate><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://www.theglobeandmail.com/resizer/v2/OS5OVY5R2RGQJKOC4MWWTRMYCI.jpg?auth=0da79a92b282b3b4d1d087f358f4d778fb5e22c114ddbc6638d30c07cd36add0&smart=true&width=8256&height=5504" alt="On social media, President Donald Trump called Pope Leo 'WEAK on crime' and 'terrible for Foreign Policy.'
