Chi'chil Biłdagoteel (#OakFlat) is a sacred site in the Tonto National Forest for the #SanCarlosApache and other Native American Tribes in the region—a place to pray, collect water and medicinal plants, gather acorns, honor the people who are buried there, and perform sacred religious ceremonies. Oak Flat is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a Traditional Cultural Property and protected from mining since 1955 by President Eisenhower.
"#Resolution’s underground mine would cause Oak Flat to collapse into a mile-wide, 1,000-foot-deep crater. In 2014, the US government promised the land to foreign copper mining interests to build a copper mine. The #ResolutionCopper Project would create one of the largest copper mines in the US destroying this sacred site.
