VOLUNTEER Write opinion articles to local papers. Augusta Resources is spending tremendous amounts of money to promote this mine. Organizations like ours don't have the resources. But if the public spends the time we don't need the money. Attend any local event and pass out information about the mine. Most people are not aware of the mine or think it is already approved. It is NOT approved and is in the public comment period. Here is a list of upcoming events in 2009 where help is needed.
