Resolution Copper Donates $1 Million to Support Globe-Miami Flood Relief Efforts
SUPERIOR, Ariz., Oct. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Rio Tinto, the majority owner of Resolution Copper, has donated $1 million to support flood relief efforts in the City of Globe and Town of Miami, following devastating flash floods in late September and additional flooding that occurred this past weekend, causing widespread damage to local communities and businesses.
The donation to the United Fund of Globe-Miami, Arizona, will help provide emergency cleaning supplies, support flood mitigation planning within the region, and assist with long-term recovery for families and businesses impacted by the flooding.
For residents, the funding will support temporary shelter, home repairs, and utility assistance. For businesses, it will help cover equipment and construction costs.
Resolution Copper General Manager Vicky Peacey said, "Our thoughts are with our friends and neighbors in Globe and Miami who these devastating floods have impacted. The road to recovery will be long, and we're committed to standing alongside the community every step of the way."
Immediately after the flooding, Resolution Copper actively contributed to emergency response efforts with funds, employee volunteers, and by enlisting the aid of third-party help to assist our neighbors in need. The company mobilized local contractors, Oddonetto Construction and 4-Winds Contracting, for immediate street and road cleanup. It also donated cleaning supplies, fans, and shovels to help local businesses begin recovery.
Many Resolution Copper employees live in the affected areas and have personally volunteered their time to support neighbors, local businesses, and nonprofit organizations impacted by the floods. This includes participating in a community cleanup at Boyce Thompson Arboretum in Superior, where we partnered with Superior Environmental, who generously donated time and equipment to help clear debris from bridges and drains. Resolution Copper continues to work closely with local officials to assess and respond to evolving community needs.
