RE: Huge new USA copper mines coming on-stream or maybe not!5 Apr 2021 17:41
The Resolution copper project in Arizona is more complex than the Proactive article indicates. They want to mine on land that is considered sacred by Native Americans. The deal to allow the mine to go ahead had been unable to get through congress for many years and was attached to a Defence Act in 2014 to get through. It could not have been that popular if it could not get through without a much-needed Defence Act?
And Trump waived it through in his last days in power. It is not surprising that the Biden Admin wants a better look. My money says it will go ahead as it is a strategic mine for the US, but it will be subject to some horse-trading and the Native American tribe [San Carlos Apache Tribe - never heard of them myself] getting a better deal than Trump's administration would have offered.
