Students from Ch E 301 and Dr. Mitchell visited the Freeport MacMoran mine in Morenci, AZ on Saturday, April 19, 2008. Sam Roose (NMSU Ch E Alum) and the kind folks at MacMoran provided a great tour of the mine, from the mining of the copper ore through leaching, solvent extraction and electowinning to produce very high purity copper. This picture was taken at the overlook of the pit mine. Pictured (left to right) are Sam Roose, Jorge Guerra, Nick Csakan, Alison Flores, Keith Hendren, Ben Giusto, Daniel Martin Alarcon, and Mark Peabody.
