SUPERIOR, AZ – Resolution Copper accepted the Rocky Mountain Mining Institute’s (RMMI) 2022 Safety Award for Small Underground Mine. The award recognizes Resolution Copper as the safest among its mining peers across the eight-state RMMI region, including Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, North Dakota, Montana, Texas, Utah and Wyoming. It provides further evidence of the company’s dedication to safe and responsible mining.
“Safety is paramount to our operations,” said Resolution Copper Project Director Andrew Lye. “This award validates what we care about most at Resolution Copper – creating a safe, efficient mining process that benefits our economy and revitalizes the region.”
The Rocky Mountain Mining Institute compared companies for the prestigious award using incident rate data including Non-Fatal Days Lost (NFDL) and No Days Lost (NDL) rates as reported to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, a division of the U.S. Department of Labor whose mission is to foster safe and healthy workplaces in U.S. mines.
