- 25 billion kg of stamp sand deposited on Gay beaches
- Length of shoreline affected increased 2.4 km in 59 years
- 500 billion kg of total waste material from mines placed in and around Lake Superior
- Ore was crushed and rinsed in a water and chemical bath to extract copper
- Stamp sand beaches have little vegetation
