A grassroots nonprofit community group based in Superior, Arizona made up of local residents and retired hard‑rock miners. The coalition advocates for responsible mining practices while seeking protections for local water, public lands and culturally important sites affected by mining proposals.
Mining oversight and regulation; environmental protection and water quality; public‑lands and cultural‑site preservation (including Oak Flat/Queen Creek concerns); community health and local economic development tied to responsible resource use.
Volunteer‑run and community‑based; primarily supported by small local donations, membership contributions, and in‑kind support or collaboration with allied environmental organizations.
Member of the Arizona Mining Reform Coalition and frequent collaborator with groups such as the Center for Biological Diversity, Sierra Club (Grand Canyon Chapter), and Earthworks; prominent local leaders have included Roy Chavez and Henry C. Muñoz Sr.
