Description


Rosemont Copper is located in Arizona

Rosemont Copper is the name of a copper mining project in the permitting process under the direction of the United States Forest Service. The project is located in Pima County, Arizona, in an undeveloped area approximately 30 miles southeast of Tucson. The nearest established communities are Sonoita, Patagonia, Sahuarita, Green Valley, Corona de Tucson, and Vail. Opponents argue that the mine will damage water and air quality and hurt the local tourism industry.[2] Proponents argue that the project will create jobs, generate tax revenue and reduce American dependence on foreign sources of copper.[3]
