Community Engagement

Superior is more than where we work. It is our home.
Resolution Copper is committed to supporting the Copper Triangle by investing in people, education, and community partnerships. Our focus is simple: strengthen local communities today and help create opportunities for generations to come.

Investing in Local Communities

We support community wellbeing by partnering with local schools, businesses, nonprofits, and civic groups. From education and workforce training to volunteering and philanthropy, our efforts focus on long‑term local benefit across the Copper Triangle.

Empowering Future Generations

Education creates opportunity. We support local schools by investing millions in STEM and robotics programs, facility improvements, and youth and teacher development.

Since 2002, we have awarded more than $900,000 in scholarships to over 260 local students. Our scholarship program provides up to $3,000 to graduating high school seniors pursuing higher education, with an emphasis on mining, technical, and STEM‑related fields. Explore our scholarship program ›

Workforce Development and Apprenticeships

We work with Central Arizona College to build practical career pathways. Our three‑year apprenticeship program prepares students to safely operate and maintain on‑site equipment and infrastructure. Graduates have moved into in‑demand technical roles, including electricians, mechanics, welders, and environmental specialists. We also support the Superior Enterprise Center to help build a sustainable, locally rooted workforce.

Volunteering in the Community

Our employees give back where they live. Each year, more than 150 employees volunteer thousands of hours across the Copper Triangle. They serve on local boards, commissions, and nonprofits, supporting schools, first responders, youth programs, and community services in Superior, Globe, Miami, Kearny, Hayden, Winkelman, San Carlos, and nearby communities. See how our teams give back locally ›

Supporting Causes and Organizations

Our community support extends across education, workforce development, environmental stewardship, and cultural preservation. We partner with local organizations to protect natural resources, preserve local history, and expand access to training and education. These investments help individuals succeed while strengthening the broader community over the long term. Learn more about our giving and partnerships ›

The Descent: What It’s Like Traveling Nearly 7,000 Ft. Underground

September 5, 2026
From the surface, 7,000 ft. is hard to picture. It is just a number until you walk toward the shaft, pass beneath the headframe and reach the collar, where the scale starts to come into focus. The opening drops below, surrounded by steel, hoisting equipment and the systems that move people safely between the surface and the underground workings.
