Oak Flat is a sacred site to nine Indigenous tribes including the San Carlos and Mescalero Apache Nations. The Trump Admin wants to hand it over to a major foreign-owned mining company that would destroy it forever. Stand with our Indigenous nations and say NO. #SaveOakFlat

I saw this woman's sign, and I burst into tears. We consoled each other with a good, strong hug. We will never stop fighting for Oak Flat. #SaveOakFlat #ProtectTheSacred #NoKings #Yuma

We can’t keep letting billion-dollar mining companies destroy what little sacred land Indigenous communities still have. Stand with the Western Apache. This fight is far from over. #NoResolutionMine #SaveOakFlat

Sacred ground is not always marked by a steeple. This ​Earth Day, we stand with the San Carlos Apache Tribe to save Chí’chil Biłdagoteel (“Oak Flat”), land that is both sacred and under threat.

BJC defends religious freedom for all.

And let's not forget how #NoDAPL #NoKXL #mniwiconi #NoLine3 #waterislife, #SaveOakFlat and #IStandWithStandingRock revealed the violence and human rights abuses of the Oil/Gas/Mining industries on Native communities and government corruption on state and federal levels.

The fight to #SaveOakFlat from foreign-owned mining interests is not over.
Donald Trump just gave Oak Flat—a sacred site to Indigenous communities in AZ and NM—to a “FOREIGN-OWNED” copper mining company.

Communities warned mining would destroy this sacred landscape and drain its waters.

Trump’s “America First” is a scam. We’ll keep fighting to protect this sacred place.

Oak Flat is under threat! Oak Flat is a sacred site to nine Indigenous tribes. #Trump wants to hand it over to a major foreign-owned mining company that would destroy it forever. Stand with our Indigenous nations and say NO to this environmental and human rights violation. #SaveOakFlat

"The underlying cases themselves were not dismissed and will still be heard on the merits in district court," said Russ McSpadden, Southwest conservation advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity.

That means the lawsuits are still in play.

What is being done to save and protect OAK FLAT forever @anguskingiii.bsky.social ? @pingree.house.gov ? #SaveOakFlat #NativeAmerican
After Rio Tinto blew up the Juukan Gorge caves, it promised it would “never again” destroy sacred sites. In Arizona, the Resolution Copper mine is set to do precisely that by creating a crater 3,200 m wide and 300 m deep at Oak Flat right in the middle of a Native American sacred site.

This is like tearing down a cathedral of nature, the sacred place for an entire people. For what, greed?
Ridiculous! The Supreme Court can't only be for money. @scotusblog.com

Now seems to be a good time to remind everyone that Rio Tinto’s subsidiary, Resolution Copper, has been trying to mine Oak Flat, a sacred site. Also a good time to mention that indigenous activists have claimed that resource extraction operations bring an influx of sexual assault. #SaveOakFlat

The fight to save Oak Flat continues!

Hopeful news: A federal judge in Arizona has temporarily halted the Oak Flat land exchange. Without today’s injunction, the sacred public lands would have been handed over to a private mining company as early as June 16.
