Let's continue our deep dive into Kennecott's 120-year history with a look at the second decade of our mine's life. This decade was defined by victories both at home and on the battlefields of Europe — our annual ore production doubled, helping to make weapons and vehicles when they were needed most. Kennecott also expanded during these years, acquiring more mines and other companies to fuel growth. By the early 20s, a booming population had made a home around Bingham Canyon. Follow along as we

As our 120th year in operation comes to a close, we are wrapping up our celebrations with a look at the latest decade of our history: 2013 – 2023. The decade began with rebuilding following a destructive landslide. What experts estimated would take a year to recover from, we did in just 17 days. The rest of the decade was marked by more forward progress. From a Critical Risk Management program that dramatically improved safety to making bold strides toward a cleaner future, we continued to make

Welcome to Decade 11 of our history. The beginning of a new millennium brought a landmark achievement and important moments to our storied past. Between 2003 and 2013, a dramatic expansion plan was approved to extend the mine's life to 2029 while simultaneously venturing into underground mining. Locally, we kicked off our sponsorship of @RealSaltLake by supporting the construction of the team's iconic stadium. On the world stage, gold and silver from Bingham Canyon were used in the 2012 Olympics

After 75 years of operation, Rio Tinto Kennecott is retiring the Utah Power Plant located in Magna, Utah. The plant retirement and acquisition of renewable energy certificates will remove more than 1 million tons of CO2 from Kennecott’s Wasatch Front operations and reduce its annual carbon footprint by as much as 65 percent. This is an important milestone in achieving Rio Tinto’s goal of being carbon neutral by 2050. There will be no job impacts as a result of the power plant retirement. | Rio T
