Well, here is the thing about this particular mine site. Resolution Copper does not own the land--we do. That is to say, the Oak Flat campground is part of the Tonto National Forest. It is public land. Additionally, mining has been banned by Presidential Order at Oak Flat for the last 50 years, when President Eisenhower issued Public Land Order (PLO) 1229 in 1955.

And, just like that, we don't.

I wish I could still feel surprised.
