Mason Project: Join Us to Learn More and Meet the Team
In a world transitioning towards sustainable energy and increasing electrification, the demand for copper continues to soar. Hudbay’s Mason Project, located in Lyon County, Nevada, stands poised to play a significant role in meeting this growing demand.
Amidst rising demand for responsibly produced materials, Hudbay is steadfast in its commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable mining practices. The company has implemented rigorous environmental protocols across its projects, ensuring minimal environmental impact while maximizing the efficient extraction of resources.
The importance of copper in today’s world is undeniable. Copper is fundamental in building energy infrastructure, powering electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and telecommunications. It is the second most utilized material by the U.S. Department of Defense. As the global shift towards cleaner energy intensifies, so will the demand for copper. In 2023, the United States imported 46% of the copper it needs (USGS), and the Mason Project could potentially supply 7% of the total U.S. demand.
The development of the Mason Project will bring substantial economic benefits to Lyon County and its residents, offering hope for a more prosperous future. Progress in the project will translate into job creation and a more prosperous local economy. Increased mining activity will generate tax revenue that will support community development and fund essential regional services and infrastructure.
Looking ahead, Hudbay remains focused on responsible mining practices, planning to leverage innovation to boost efficiency while minimizing environmental impact. The company engages with local stakeholders, regulatory bodies, and the community to foster transparent communication and build mutual trust. These efforts address concerns, mitigate potential effects, and strengthen relationships with all involved.
In keeping with our commitment to open dialogue, we are excited to announce an Open House on Thursday, September 26, where the community, a vital part of the Mason Project, is invited to learn more about our plans, meet the project team, and ask questions. We have scheduled two sessions—one in the morning and one in the evening—to accommodate all interested community members.
