In 2025, we joined this coalition as a partner organization in order to resist the fast-tracking of mining operations by the current federal administration. New Mexico Mining Watch works in solidarity with frontline and indigenous communities who have and continue to be overly burdened by unjust and polluting mining operations, particularly for uranium and copper. As we advocate for a transition away from fossil fuels, we must simultaneously advocate for the most just, fair, and ecologically responsible mining practices in New Mexico and beyond.
