Hudbay Minerals: “Our Values Are Who We Are”
* Hudbays’ proposed mine in Arizona blocked by court

“Mining corporation Hudbay Minerals proposed to dig a mile-wide open-pit copper mine in the Santa Ritas, burying dozens of sites sacred to the Tribes under 1.8 billion tons of toxic waste.”

“The only way Hudbay could get away with creating a colossal mine on public lands was by an industry sleight-of-hand using an antiquated mining law.”

“The privatization of police forces for mining was found to result in greater social conflict, greater social and territorial control, and the criminalization of protest and international solidarity to facilitate the operations of the mining company.”

“Somebody paid them to come out and rape us”
11 Maya Q’eqchi’ women speak - Plaintiffs in the ‘Lote 8 gang-rape’ Hudbay Minerals lawsuit
Forward and compilation by Grahame Russell, Rights Action, [link removed]

“These men -- somebody was okay with what they did. They were paid to come out and do this to us. They were paid to come out and violate us and rape us and do all of this horrible, terrible stuff to us. Somebody knew they were going to do it. Somebody paid them to come do this.”
(Answer to question #429, testimony of Irma Yolanda Choc Cac, November 13 and 14, 2017)
