That's misleading. The dust cloud came off of the tailings mountain next to kennicott. The cloud was white and the wind was going North.

Did you watch the clip? The tendency toward conspiracy theories for everything these days is utterly insane.

This was a very measured and reasonable take considering how problematic this could actually be for Utah residents.
