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 ›

Reflecting on His Past, Bryan Mines a New Future

April 2, 2026
Bryan’s family is no stranger to mining. Born and raised in Globe, Bryan grew up watching his father and uncles work at the Magma Copper Mine. The industry was volatile at the time, and Bryan’s father was laid off three different times. Wanting a more stable path for his son, Bryan’s father encouraged him to do anything else for a living. Bryan followed that advice and decided to enroll at the University of Arizona, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in economic development.
