The Ruby Mines Restoration Project in Cortaro, Arizona is a multi-year restoration effort aimed at restoring an area previously used for mining operations. The project was initiated in 2017 by the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) Arizona State Office and has since been funded by a combination of public and private sources. The primary objective of the project is to restore the area to its natural condition, while also providing recreational opportunities for the public.

The project has involved the removal of hazardous materials, such as asbestos and lead, and the restoration of the land to its natural condition. Additionally, the project has included the installation of fencing, trails, and interpretive signage to provide visitors with an understanding of the area’s history. The project is intended to create a safe, accessible, and enjoyable recreational area for visitors to enjoy.

The project is ongoing, with the majority of the restoration work completed by the end of 2019. In total, the project has cost over $3 million, with the majority of funds being provided by the BLM. The project has also received support from local organizations, such as the Friends of Cortaro and the Pima County Natural Resources Conservation District, who have provided volunteer labor and other resources.

The Ruby Mines Restoration Project is an important effort to restore a previously mined area to its natural condition and provide recreational opportunities for the public. The project is expected to be completed in 2020, and its successful completion will be an important milestone in protecting and preserving the area’s natural resources.
