From the RDC Breakfast March 3, 2011: Global Growth, Mining, and the Pebble Project, by Cynthia Carroll, Chief Executive, Anglo American


"the United States of America, and the State of Alaska, has a world class ore body in its territory. An ore body, on state land designated for mining, whose development would bring billions of dollars of investment and help generate many hundreds, perhaps thousands of much-needed jobs for many decades. The USA – and the wider world – depend increasingly on the kinds of minerals that lie underground, north of the villages of Iliamna and Newhalen and west of Nondalton. Over the years, a permitting process has been built up which applies among the most rigorous environmental standards in the world. Your standards can ensure co-existence of a healthy mining operation, and a healthy Salmon fishery.

I also know that the Federal government has put more than a third of your state in to protected areas where development is unlikely ever to take place. On the other hand, the State of Alaska has received lands that Alaskans assume will be used to support your economy. Pebble is located on just such lands. We have been invited in to see whether we can develop those lands. We should be given the opportunity to prove we can do it right. "
