At Saturday’s Forest Service public meeting on the proposed Rosemont project, a question was asked about Augusta Resource’s and Rosemont Copper’s mining track record.

To the folks coming to public meetings and putting your reputation on the line on behalf of Augusta/Rosemont, keep in mind that you are doing it for a company that by their own words has never mined anything.
