Trump and Major Miners Clash Over Arizona Copper Mine Delays

U.S. President Donald Trump criticized a court decision that temporarily blocks the land transfer for the Resolution Copper mine in Arizona, a project vital for domestic copper supply and economic growth, amid legal challenges from Native American tribes and environmental groups. The project, owned by Rio Tinto and BHP, faces delays despite its potential to significantly boost U.S. copper production and meet rising global demand, especially as copper is crucial for renewable energy and technology infrastructure.
