CO₂ Emissions
Copper mining firms worldwide are committed to reducing their carbon emissions. Freeport-McMoRan, one of the world's largest copper miners, lowered its carbon emissions by more than 21 percent from 2015 to 2019. This puts the company on track to meet the COP21 framework to limit global warming to below 2°C from pre-industrial levels by 2050.

Kennecott Nevada Mines Division
The raw ore coming out of the pits runs about 2.5-3 percent copper, the smelter shipped 99 percent pure blister copper to the outside world over the Nevada Northern mainline. That ended in 1983 when Kennecott shut down its Nevada Mines Division. Magma Copper and the BHP reopened the mines and the railroad about 1995.
