Resolution Copper Mining Gains Support from Governor Jan Brewer
Friday, April 24th, 2009
Governor Jan Brewer
The Arizona Republic published an article today about Governor Jan Brewer’s visit to the Resolution Copper Mining site and her support for the project. See the article here. Judging by the response, we know a lot of you read the article and we wanted to take a moment to address a couple common questions and misconceptions.
Issue: The project will leave tailings that destroy the environment and its surroundings.
Response: The proposed Resolution Project mine will be an underground operation with no open pits. We are exploring the option of placing tailings in an existing open pit mine near Superior. We are currently negotiating to use the Pinto Valley mine, located about 3 miles west of Miami. Under this arrangement our tailings would be used to back fill the Pinto Valley pit, which would later be reclaimed.
Issue: Resolution Copper doesn’t care about the environmental impact the project will have during and after its completion.
Response: Resolution Copper has undertaken a multi-year, multi-million dollar cleanup of lands in and around Superior that have been affected by previous mining activity. We have done so as protecting human health and the environment from the legacy-mining residue is important to us. Our goal is to restore natural vegetation and reestablish the area for useful purposes. To see this effort in action, visit our Flickr page.
As always, if you have questions about the project please visit the “The Land Exchange and You” or the “Ask RCM” portions of the website. We welcome your comments and questions and look forward to helping all of Arizona understand this project.
