CASA GRANDE, AZ - Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. has received the Mined Land Reclamation Permit (MLRP) from the Arizona State Mine Inspector’s Office for the Cactus Mine Project following the application in December of 2022.

Travis Snider, ASCU VP Sustainability and External Relations, said, “We received notification of the permit being administratively accepted in December. We are thrilled to have received the MLRP within three and a half months. This is a reflection of the accountability and professionalism at the Arizona State Mine Inspector’s Office.

All of these agencies have been instrumental in our success.”
