Outline

SG-1 discovers a migratory people descended from the Native American Salish tribes on PXY-887.

The Salish refuse to allow the SGC to mine their planet’s large deposits of the valuable metal trinium, believing it would upset the spirits of the natural world.

Under pressure from above, General Hammond orders mining to proceed without Salish permission, incurring the ire of their “spirits”, in fact advanced aliens who freed the Salish from the Goa’uld a millennium ago.

The Salish Spirits attack the SGC, until SG-1 convinces them that burying their Stargate would be a better solution than destroying the base.
