Students discuss reclamation work
The Nature Club (made possible by a partnership between RCM, the Boyce Thompson Arboretum and John F. Kennedy Elementary) this week met at the Resolution Copper site for an overview of the project and the company’s environmental efforts.
Students were hosted by Casey McKeon and Senyssa Manriquez of the Environmental department, and were given a presentation on our reclamation work as well as an opportunity to view plants and rocks found on site. The Nature Club students seemed very interested in the work and shared their own thoughts of why Resolution Copper is in town and what mining is about.
