There are plenty space fo them to dance:

"...Members of the Winnemucca Tribe travel to Thacker Pass annually to perform the culturally significant Sundance ceremony, a rigorous sacred prayer dance lasting ten days.

The dance has taken a special meaning to Rojo in the past two decades after her close relative was murdered “as the ceremony carries the promise of healing through a demanding process of purification, sacrifice and prayer,” said Rojo.

“The Sundance is a way of life for our members, a way of reaching through seven generations back and forward for betterment,” she says in filings.

Thacker Pass remains an important part of the Colony’s cultural practices where they hunt deer and gather medical plants, said Rojo, adding that industrial development and mining pollution on the land would harm their way of life.

Should development of the mine move forward, the Colony argues they should be allowed to join the lawsuit and defend their interests, including the ability to ensure cultural and archeological resources are protected.

“If BLM and Lithium Nevada still insist on disrespecting our traditional ways, distressing us emotionally and spiritually, and desecrating land we consider sacred, the Colony will advise BLM on how to perform this desecration in the most sensitive way possible,” Rojo wrote.
