  • BHP: Fine Words, Foul Play 23 September 2020 Introduction
    BHP: fine words, foul play 23 September 2020 Introduction BHP presents itself, and is often considered by investors, as the very model of a modern mining company. Not only does it present itself as socially and environmentally responsible but now as indispensable in the efforts to save the world from climate catastrophe. Given the impacts and potential impacts of its Australian operations on Aboriginal sites and the furore over Rio Tinto’s destruction of the Juukan Gorge site earlier this year, perhaps BHP will begin to tread more carefully. It certainly needs to. This briefing summarises concerns around current and planned operations in which BHP is involved in Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Peru and the USA. LMN and our member groups work with communities or partner organisations in these five countries. Concerns include ecological and social impacts, violation of indigenous rights, mining waste disposal and the financing of clean- up. Other matters of current concern are briefly noted. At the end of the briefing are reports on three legacy cases - in Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and Colombia - where BHP pulled out, leaving others to deal with the environmental destruction and social dislocation caused by its operations. LMN exists to work in solidarity with communities harmed by companies linked to London, including BHP, the world’s largest mining corporation. This briefing is intended to encourage those who finance the company to use that finance to force change, and members of the public to join us in support of communities in the frontline of the struggle to defend their rights and the integrity of the planet’s ecosystems.

THE RESOLUTION COPPER DEPOSIT, A DEEP, HIGH-GRADE PORPHYRY COPPER DEPOSIT IN THE SUPERIOR DISTRICT, ARIZONA Geoff Ballantyne, Tim Marsh, Carl Hehnke, Dave Andrews, Amy Eichenlaub & Ken Krahulec Kennecott Exploration Company THIS PAPER WAS PRESENTED AT THE MARCO T. EINAUDI SYMPOSIUM, SOCIETY OF ECONOMIC GEOLOGISTS STUDENT CHAPTER, COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES, GOLDEN, CO; A CONFERENCE (MARCOFEST) HELD AT THE COLORADO SCHOOL OF MINES ON APRIL 3 AND 4, 2003. INTRODUCTION Manske and Paul (2002) described a recently discovered, deep, high-grade porphyry copper deposit in the Superior (Pioneer) district of Arizona. Their description, written after just five core holes had intersected an apparently coherent zone of >1% Cu mineralization, provides a remarkably complete picture of the upper parts of the mineralized system. Following initial drilling, which was carried out by Magma Copper Company and by BHP, Kennecott secured an option to earn a 55% interest in the copper deposit through further exploration expenditures. The deposit was named the Resolution deposit and a program of deep surface drilling commenced in July 2001. Since that time 17 additional deep core holes have been completed, most of them to depths of more than 2000m.

  • ALL the QUEEN's AGENTS & CORPORATIONS the Queen's
    ALL THE QUEEN’S AGENTS & CORPORATIONS The Queen’s Prerogative English law prohibits questioning the Monarchy about their personal holdings and business. This is true of most of Europe’s royalty, whether enthroned or not. The wealth of the Monarchies is held outside of the countries that made the wealth. The British Crown’s offshore banks hold the greatest personal wealth in the world estimated at $35 trillion. Perhaps the British Crown still owns and controls its Commonwealth Nations, including the American “colonies.” Monarchies are not supposed to be warlord bankers who create conflict and chaos to turn a profit or destabilize an economy for personal gain. But they have been for some time now, and history is a string of immoral wars caused by monarchies, the Vatican and other religions. Untold millions have died while kings and popes lived on to grab the wealth through well-established institutions that were created to control the people of the Earth. The Commonwealth of Nations, headed by Queen Elizabeth II, is made up of 53 nations, spanning the globe, accounting for one-fifth of the land mass of the Earth, and a very high percentage of its strategic resources and population. The Queen is a Knight of Malta and has vowed allegiance to the Pope through the largest insider trading club on the planet. The British Crown Agents are, in fact, also agents of the Vatican’s Knights of Malta. The Queen is a Knight of Malta The Sovereign Military Order of Malta (SMOM) took control of the power and wealth of the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon from within the Roman system.

  • Scoping Comments for the Resolution Copper Mine DEIS Earthworks, A
    March 29, 2016 Mr. Neil Bosworth, Forest Supervisor Mr. Tom Torres, Deputy Forest Supervisor Tonto National Forest 2324 East McDowell Road Phoenix, AZ, 85006 Sent by email to: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] RE: Scoping Comments for the Resolution Copper Mine DEIS Earthworks, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization focused on the environmental and social impacts of the mining and oil and gas industries, wishes to thank the Tonto National Forest (TNF) for the opportunity to submit scoping comments for the Resolution Copper Mine Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). We are confident that our comments will best reflect the concerns of our 1000+ members who reside in Arizona and who will be impacted by the construction, operation, and post-closure challenges of the Resolution Copper Mine, as proposed. As the Forest Service prepares to take a hard look at the impacts of the mine plan, and begins to analyze potential alternatives to mitigate environmental and social impacts, we are optimistic that our comments will be taken into consideration in a meaningful way as a DEIS is being written. Introduction: The Resolution Copper Mine (RCM, or “the project”) would become one of the largest copper mines in the world, directly affecting over 10 square miles of land – most of which is currently owned by the American public and beneficially used in a variety of ways. Between the proposed tailings location near Queen Valley and the well known recreation and spiritual site of Oak Flat, existing beneficial uses include off road vehicle recreation, spiritual ceremonial gatherings, rock climbing, hiking, camping, bird watching and many other uses.

  • Projected Consumption of Electricity and Water by the Proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona Dr. Steven H. Emerman, Malach
    Projected Consumption of Electricity and Water by the Proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona Dr. Steven H. Emerman, Malach Consulting, LLC, 785 N 200 W, Spanish Fork, Utah 84660, USA, E-mail: [email protected], Tel: 801-921-1228 Report to Arizona Mining Reform Coalition, submitted March 11, 2019 Revision submitted March 31, 2019 LIGHTNING SUMMARY Rio Tinto has provided no estimate of the electricity consumption of the proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona, but it can be shown to be 3% and 22% of the peak power capacity of the Salt River Project under the best-case and worst-case scenarios, respectively. Rio Tinto has estimated water consumption of only 15,700 acre-feet per year (about one-third of industry standards) while using conventional technologies for water efficiency. ABSTRACT The underground Resolution Copper Mine that is being proposed by Rio Tinto in Arizona would process 150,000 metric tons of ore per day from an ore body at a depth of 5000-7000 feet with a grade of 1.47%. The objective of this study was to evaluate the projected consumption of electricity and water by the proposed mine. Rio Tinto has provided no information about electricity consumption, except that power would be supplied by the local grid of the Salt River Project. Based on the depth, grade, and production rate, the projected electricity consumption would be 236 MW. However, the discovery of geothermal water while drilling the primary access shaft could result in additional electricity consumption of 24 MW solely for mine dewatering and refrigeration under the best-case scenario and 1650 MW under the worst-case scenario, corresponding to total electricity consumption of 260 MW and 1900 MW, which are 3% and 22%, respectively, of the peak power capacity of the Salt River Project.

  • OPERATIONAL REVIEW for the HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 Note: All Guidance Is Subject to Further Potential Impacts from COVID-19 During the 2021 Financial Year
    Release Time IMMEDIATE Date 20 January 2021 Release Number 01/21 BHP OPERATIONAL REVIEW FOR THE HALF YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020 Note: All guidance is subject to further potential impacts from COVID-19 during the 2021 financial year. We achieved another strong operational performance during the half. Measures to counter the risk from COVID-19 remain in place. Record production was achieved at Western Australia Iron Ore (WAIO) and record average concentrator throughput was delivered at Escondida. Group copper equivalent production was broadly flat in the December 2020 half year. Strong underlying operational performance offset the impacts of planned maintenance, natural field decline, copper grade decline and adverse weather. Production guidance for the 2021 financial year remains unchanged for petroleum and metallurgical coal. Iron ore guidance has increased to between 245 and 255 Mt as a result of the restart of Samarco in December 2020. Copper guidance has been narrowed to between 1,510 and 1,645 kt and reflects strong performance at Escondida. Energy coal guidance has been reduced to between 21 and 23 Mt following a 91-day strike at Cerrejón. Full year unit cost guidance(1) (based on exchange rates of AUD/USD 0.70 and USD/CLP 769) remains unchanged for the 2021 financial year. Our major projects under development are progressing to plan. The Spence Growth Option achieved first production in December 2020, on schedule and on budget. The Jansen Stage 1 project remains on track for Final Investment Decision in the middle of the 2021 calendar year. South Flank is tracking well and is on schedule for first production in the middle of the 2021 calendar year.

  • Evaluation of the Maximum Design Earthquake for the Tailings Storage Facilities for the Proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona
    Evaluation of the Maximum Design Earthquake for the Tailings Storage Facilities for the Proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona Dr. Steven H. Emerman, Malach Consulting, LLC, 785 N 200 W, Spanish Fork, Utah 84660, USA, E-mail: [email protected], Tel: 801-921-1228 Report to Arizona Mining Reform Coalition, submitted March 27, 2019 Revision submitted April 1, 2019 LIGHTNING SUMMARY The U.S. Forest Service has put forward five alternatives for the tailings storage facilities for the proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona, all of which would be designed to withstand the 5000-year earthquake. However, since the failures of the alternatives would endanger the towns of Superior (population 2837), Queen Valley (population 820), Florence (population 26,074), and Dripping Springs (population 235), according to dam safety standards, they should be designed to withstand the Maximum Credible Earthquake, the largest earthquake that is theoretically possible within a particular seismotectonic setting. ABSTRACT The U.S. Forest Service has put forward five alternatives for the tailings storage facilities for the proposed Resolution Copper Mine, Arizona, all of which would be designed to withstand the 5000-year earthquake. Four of the alternatives (Peg Leg site, Skunk Camp site, and two at the Near West site) involve the storage of thickened tailings (50-70% solids), while one alternative (Silver King site) involves the storage of filtered tailings (86-89% solids). According to a wide range of dam safety standards, a dam for which the failure would result in the loss of human life should be designed to withstand the Maximum Credible Earthquake (MCE), the largest earthquake that is theoretically possible within a particular seismotectonic setting.
