US appeals court puts the brakes on contested land transfer for Arizona copper mine

  • The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued an emergency injunction blocking the Trump administration from transferring Oak Flat to a private mining company while lawsuits are ongoing.
  • The planned copper mine would destroy Oak Flat, a sacred site for the San Carlos Apache Tribe, and harm local ecosystems by depleting groundwater, as noted by conservation advocates.
  • Various groups, including the Inter Tribal Association of Arizona, express relief at the court's decision and stress the importance of preserving Oak Flat.
